Mass Balance Approach

When a raw material having certain characteristics (e.g., biomass-derived raw material) is mixed with another raw material (e.g., petroleum-derived raw material) in the processing and distribution process from the raw material to the product,the mass balance approach or mass balance method is a chain of custody method that allows an equivalent amount of the certified input raw material to be allocated to specific outputs based on verifiable bookkeeping.
