Introduction

1.1 PREFACE

An Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is an assessment of the

possible impacts that a proposed project may have on the environment -

consisting of the environmental, social and economic aspects. It is an

assessment and management tool that evaluates the possible impacts,

positive or negative, that a proposed project may have on the

environment. EIA systematically examines both beneficial and adverse

consequences of the project and ensures that these effects are taken into

account during project design. The purpose of the assessment is to

ensure that decision makers consider the ensuing environmental impacts

when deciding to proceed with a project. In India, Ministry of

Environment and Forests has defined elaborated “Environmental

Clearance (EC)” framework along with requirements for preparing

Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) under the Environmental

(Protection) Act, 1986 (Environmental Impact Assessment Notification,

2006) for establishing/expanding and industry/development projects.

1.2 PURPOSE OF THE REPORT

Industrialization and infrastructure development have increased economic

growth and improved living standards of people in India. However,

development has led to rapid consumption of natural resources and

increased emissions of waste. To control the pollutions from industrial

activity, government has framed regulations which are governed by

Ministry of Environment, Forest & Climate Change in India. Environment

Impact analysis is mandatory as per the Environment Impact Assessment

(EIA) Notification issued by Ministry of Environment, Forest & Climate

3.8 AMBIENT AIR QUALITY

3.8.1 Introduction

To quantify the impact of the proposed project on the ambient air quality,

it is necessary to evaluate the existing ambient air quality of the area.

The ambient air quality monitoring with respect to the study area of 10

km radius around the project site was done for the baseline information.

3.8.2 Design Network for Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Stations

The baseline status of the ambient air quality has been assessed through

a scientifically designed ambient air quality monitoring network. The

design of monitoring network is based on the following considerations:

Topography/Terrain of the study area

Populated areas within the region

Prediction of maximum concentrations and distances of their likely

occurrence under prevailing meteorological conditions

Representation of regional background

Representatives of likely impact areas

Ambient Air Quality Monitoring (AAQM) stations were placed at eight

locations with due consideration to the above mentioned points.

3.8.3 Reconnaissance

Reconnaissance was undertaken to establish the baseline status of air

environment in the study region. The prime objective of the NAAQ

survey, within 10 km radial study area around the proposed project, was

to establish the existing ambient air quality levels. The monitoring

locations (relative directions and distances) are given in Table 3.11 &

shown in Figure 3.7 and results are given in Table 3.12 to 3.17.

3.9 WATER ENVIRONMENT

3.9.1 Hydrogeology of study area

Precambrian hard rocks, semi-consolidated Mesozoic and tertiary

formations and unconsolidated quaternary alluvial deposits form multi-

layer aquifer system in the district. Groundwater occurs both under

phreatic and confined conditions, however its development is restricted

depending upon the aquifer geometry and yield characteristic of

individual aquifer and/or ground water quality of the formation water.

Occurrence of groundwater can be divided in two groups. Hydrogeological

Map of the district is presented in figure below.

a) Ground water in fissured formation (Hard rock): The north-

eastern part of the district mainly in Satlasna taluka is occupied by meta

sediments. The occurrence and movement of ground water is governed

by secondary porosity i.e. thickness and extent of weathering and size &

interconnections of fractures/joints. These formations generally don‟t

form good aquifer system. The depth of dug wells range from 15-30 mbgl

and of bore wells from 100-120 mbgl. Depth to water level in the dug

wells varies from 5 -14 mbgl and in bore wells from 15 to 60 mbgl. The

yield of wells range from 30-120 m3/day with an average of 75 m3/day.

b) Groundwater in porous formations (Sedimentaries): Major part

of the district is underlain by post Miocene alluvium and older

sedimentary formations. These sediments are mainly consisted by Coarse

sand, gravel, kankar, silt, clay and clay stones. Groundwater occurs both

under phreatic and confined conditions in erinaceous horizons within

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 3-11

sedimentaries. The occurrence and movement of groundwater is mainly

controlled by inter granular pore spaces.

Two major aquifer units have been identified the upper unit is mostly

phreatic but becomes semi confined to confined in some parts. It is

designated as aquifer A and consists of relatively coarse grained

sediments. The lower unit comprising a few hundred meters of alternating

sand and clay beds form confines aquifer system. It is subdivided into B,

C D and E in post Miocene sediments and aquifer F and G in the Miocene

sediments. Himmatnagar sandstone (Cretaceous) forms local aquifer in

the north eastern part and has been designated as aquifer H. The post

Miocene aquifers are generally coarse to fine grained sand with occasional

gravel beds. The Miocene aquifers are mainly fine to medium grained

sand, sandstone inter bedded with clay, clay stone and siltstone.

Himmatnagar sandstone is generally coarse grained and friable.

Aquifer parameters:

(i) Unconfined Aquifers:

Aquifer A: Specific capacity of phreatic aquifer in the district ranges from

31 m3/hr/m to less than 1 m3/hr/m and transmissivity from 30 m2/day to

1000m2/day.

(ii) Confined Aquifers:

Aquifer B: Specific capacity ranges from 1.8 m3/hr/m to 49 m3/hr hr/m.

Transmissivity ranges between 47 and 3400 m2/day, however it is mostly

between 200-600 m2/day. Storativity ranges from 0.6 - 12.3 x 10-4.

Aquifer C: Specific capacity calculated for wells at Saola and Charasan

ranges from 21.3 and 2.8 m2/day/m respectively. Transmissivity was

94m2/day at Charasan EW.

Aquifer D: Specific capacity calculated for EW at Dhinoj was found to be

1.3 m3/hr/day, the transmissivity being 69 m2/day.

Aquifer E: No pumping test carried in this aquifer.

Aquifer F & G: Specific capacity calculated for wells at Charasan and

Pilwai was 1.1 m3/hr/m and 1.7m3/hr/m respectively. Transmissivity was

59 m2/day and 70 m2/day.

Hydrogeological Map of Mehsana District

3.9.2 Ground Water Resources

Ground water from the confined aquifer system is under exploitation in a

major way for various uses in the district. Tube wells range in depth from

120 to 300 m and have copious yield. The piezometric surface of confined

aquifer ranges from less than 60 mbgl to more than 150 m bgl. However,

in major part, it is more than 90 m bgl. Because of excessive ground

water development, consistent decline of piezometric surface is observed

in the district.

Eight talukas in the district are categorized as over exploited and one as

critical. Project site is located in Kadi Taluka, categorized as Over

exploited. Various rainwater harvesting schemes depending on the

suitable hydrogeological conditions have been constructed in the district

viz. Check dams, Recharge tube wells, deepening the of the village ponds

etc. and have shown good impact on the groundwater scenario.

3.10 WATER QUALITY

3.10.1 Introduction

Water quality assessment is one of the essential components of EIA

study. Such assessment helps in evaluating the existing health of water

body and suggesting appropriate mitigation measures to minimize the

potential impact from development projects. The water quality at the site

and other locations within the 10-km impact zone was monitored during

the study period. The purpose of the study is to:

Assess the water quality characteristics for critical parameters;

Evaluate the impact on agricultural productivity, habitat conditions

recreational resources and aesthetics in the vicinity; and

Predict the likely impacts on water quality due to the project and

related activities.

Reconnaissance survey was undertaken and monitoring locations were

finalized based on:

Location of residential areas representing different activities/likely

impact areas; and

Likely areas, which can represent baseline conditions.

3.10.2 Sampling Frequency, Techniques & Methodology

Eight surface water and Eight groundwater samples were collected during

the study period. Ground water samples were collected from the existing

bore wells, while surface water was collected from ponds by surface

water sampler. These samples were taken as grab samples. Necessary

precautions were taken for preservation of samples. Sampling locations

with source & date of sampling is given in Table 3.7.

The samples collection procedure was adopted from „Standard Methods‟

for the examination of Water and Wastewater published by American

Public Health Association (APHA) and IS 10500-2012. The samples were

analyzed for Physico-chemical parameters to assess the existing water

quality of the area (based on IS: 10500-2012 & APHA/AWWA, 23rd

edition). The water sampling locations marked within the study area and

the result of the analysis (ground water and surface water) is presented

3.11 NOISE ENVIRONMENT

Noise can be defined as an unwanted sound. The definition of noise as

unwanted sound implies that it has an adverse effect on human beings

and their environment. The noise level variation can be temporal, spatial.

It interferes with speech and hearing and is intense enough to damage

hearing or is otherwise annoying. Noise can also disturb natural wildlife

and ecological system. It is therefore, necessary to measure both the

quality as well as the quantity of noise in and around the proposed site.

3.11.1 Instrument used for Sampling and Monitoring

The intensity of sound energy in the environment is measured in a

logarithmic scale and is expressed in a decibel, dB(A) scale. Sound Level

Meter (SLM) is used for the collection of data related to noise at an

interval of one hour. The day noise levels have been monitored during

6:00 am to 10:00 pm and night noise levels during 10:00 pm to 6:00 am

at all the nine locations. Noise levels recorded at each station are

computed for equivalent noise levels. Noise monitoring methodology is

given in below Table 3.8.

zones viz. industrial, commercial, and residential and silence zones under

the Environment Protection Act (1986). These standards are given in

Table 3.23.

3.11.4 Results

The noise levels of various locations are given in Table 3.22. The

monitored noise level in the day time Leq (Ld) varies from 51.4 to 54.5

dB(A) and the night time Leq (Ln) varies from 40.0 to 43.3 dB(A) within

the study area. Higher noise value of 54.5 dB(A) was recorded during day

time at Primary School of Rajpur & lower noise value of 40.0 dB(A) was

recorded during night time at village Irana.

3.11.5 Conclusion

Based on the observations made during the studies, it is concluded that;

the noise levels recorded at various locations in the study area show

considerable fluctuations because of changes in traffic movement,

commercial and other domestic activities in the study area. Overall the

ambient noise level in the monitored locations was found to be within the

permissible limits stipulated for residential, industrial areas, silence and

commercial zone.

3.12 SOIL ENVIRONMENT

Soils may be defined as a thin layer of earth‟s crust that serves as a

natural medium for the growth of plants. It is the unconsolidated mineral

matter that has been subjected to and influenced by genetic and

environmental factors. Soils serve as a reservoir of nutrients for plants

and crops and also provide mechanical anchorage and favorable tilth.

The objective of the soil sampling is:

To determine the baseline soil characteristics;

To monitor the impact on soil in long run.

3.12.1 Soil sampling locations

Soil quality of the study area is one of the important components for

environment impact assessment. The composite soil samples were

collected from the study area from eight locations (Nr. Project site,

Laxmipura, Chandarda, Mathasur, Rajpur, Irana, Untva and

Bileshvarpura) and were analyzed for different parameters. The location

3.13 BIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENT

An ecological study of the ecosystem is essential to understand the

impact of industrialization and urbanization on existing flora and fauna of

the study area. The biological study was undertaken as a part of the EIA

study to:

Understand the present status of ecosystem prevailing in the study

area.

Compare it with past condition with the help of available data.

Predict changes in the biological environment as a result of present

activities and to suggest measures for maintaining its health.

The survey was conducted to study the flora & fauna in 10 km radius.

Some of the information was gathered from the local habitants. All the

collected data were classified to interpret the impact of pollution on the

flora and fauna of the region.

3.13.1 Period of the study

The baseline study, for the assessment of the floral and faunal

biodiversity of the terrestrial environment, within 10 km radius from the

site was conducted during January, 2019 to March, 2019.

3.13.2 Study methodology

Survey methodology was based on the flora and fauna species

identification in person, recently recorded and found in the region by the

localities. Sampling of grass species was carried out by quadrat sampling

method to examine the species distribution and its frequency in the

region.

Quadrate Sampling Method:

A quadrat (or plot-based) survey is a quantitative examination of species

distribution & abundance. Quadrats are more likely to detect

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 3-21

inconspicuous species because a smaller area is sampled in a

concentrated search. The survey was carried out for the vegetation

ground cover found in the road edges by 1 m2 quadrat and study on the

edge effect due to rapid industrialization and urbanization.

3.13.3 Floral species in the study area

Flora is basically the plant life that is present in a particular region or

habitat at a particular time. List of flora found in the study area is

tabulated in Table 3.25.

3.13.4 Fauna in the study area

Fauna is the animal life that is present in a particular region or habitat at

a particular time. Irrespective of its unfriendly terrain, Gujarat gives

shelter to a variety of animals and birds. They live in smaller herds and

thrive mainly on wild grasses and various types of shrubs. Faunal

biodiversity with their scientific names and common names is presented

in Table 3.26.

3.14 SOCIO-ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT

An essential part of environmental study is socio-economic environment

incorporating various facts related to socio-economic conditions in the

area, which deals with the total environment. Socio economic study

includes demographic structure of the area, provision of basic amenities

viz., housing, education, health and medical services, occupation, water

supply, sanitation, communication, transportation as well as feature of

aesthetic significance such as temples, historical monuments etc. at the

baseline level. This would help in visualizing and predicting the possible

impact depending upon the nature and magnitude of the project. Socio-

economic study of an area provides a good opportunity to assess the

socioeconomic conditions of an area. This study will possibly make a

change in living and social standards of the particular area benefitted due

to the project. The gross economic production of the area will be

increased substantially due to the existence of this project. It can

undoubtedly be said that this plant will provide direct and indirect

employment and improve the infrastructural facilities and standards of

living of the area.

To help in providing better living standards.

To know the current socio-economic situation in the region to cover

the sub sectors of education, health, sanitation, water and food

security.

To provide employment opportunities.

3.14.2 Land use pattern and infrastructure

The land use pattern indicates the manner in which different parts of land

in an area is being utilized or non-utilized. It is an important indicator of

environmental health; human activity and a degree of inter play between

these two. Even though the soil quality, water availability and climate

have strong influence on agriculture and vegetation, the human activity

may alter the natural environment to a large extent to suit human needs.

Unnatural land use often triggers rapid environmental deterioration and

disturbs ecological balance. In census records, major land use

classifications are; Forests, Culturable land, Culturable wasteland and

area not available for cultivation. Culturable land is further classified as:

irrigated and un-irrigated. Area not available for cultivation includes lands

put to non-agriculture uses as well as barren and uncultivable lands.

The main land use in area is for dwellings, infrastructure and related

activities. However, the land use pattern for rural areas is discussed

below. The information is preliminary based on 2011 Census as depicting

in Table 3.28. Total land area is 26340.25 ha, out of that Irrigated area

is 13163.1 ha and it constitutes 49.97%. 7848.3 ha are un-irrigated by

source and it constitutes 29.79% of total land area. The study area

consist of Cultivable wasteland is 1086.8 ha (4.12%). Area not available

for cultivation is 690.1 ha & it constitute 2.62%.

3.14.3 Demographic and Socio-Economic Environment

The demographic and Socio-economic details of the study area are

discussed below. These are primarily based on census data of 2011. Data

on number of households, population as well as literacy and employment

pattern in the study area have been presented in Table 3.29. The

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 3-23

employment pattern in the area is indicator of number of persons

employed in various sectors. It also indicates the various categories of

employment flourishing in the area. The Study area in 10 km radius has

43 villages including project site.

The total no. of household in the villages are 24817 and the total

population is 119449 (52.05% men & 47.95% women). 71.50% of are

literate while literacy rate among women & men is 64.10% & 78.31%

respectively. 53.21% of male population is part of main worker, while

only 10.42% of female population is a part of main workers. 2.90% of

male workers are marginal workers, while 6.65% of female workers are

engaged in such type of activities. 44.76% of male population and

84.27% of female population are non-workers.

3.14.4 Living Standard and Infrastructure

In India it is not possible to setup a primary standard of living because of

wide variations in terms of income, economic conditions, social custom,

employment opportunity, pattern of spending, etc. However, availability

of amenities like education, medical, water supply, communication, road

network, electricity, etc. significantly reflects the level of development of

the area. Information on available amenities in the study area has been

Anticipated Environmental Impacts &

Mitigation Measures

4.1 GENERAL

Environmental Impact can be defined as any change in environmental

conditions which may be adverse or beneficial; occurred due to action or

set of actions under consideration. It can be assessed by identifying the

sources of the impact and predicting the same. The identification of

environmental impacts has been made by co-relating the relationship

between project activity and environmental parameters. As a part of

present EIA study, anticipated environmental impacts associated with the

project activity of the unit have been identified. The project activities are

usually divided into two phases: Construction Phase and Operation Phase.

For evaluation of impacts due to proposed activities, baseline data has

been utilized. Changes in the environmental parameters & their impact in

terms of short term or long term, positive or negative, reversible &

irreversible are identified & predicted.

The next step is prediction of impacts, which is an important component

in environmental impact assessment process. Several techniques and

methodologies are in vogue for predicting the impacts due to proposed

industrial development on physical, chemical, biological and socio-

economic components of environment. Such predictions delineate

contribution in existing baseline condition for the proposed project. The

additional impacts due to proposed activities are analyzed by keeping in

mind the baseline status. This helps to assess the assimilative capacity of

the environment and in turn the gravity of the impacts. Based on the

identification & prediction of the nature of impact, it can be evaluated

qualitatively and quantitatively.

In this chapter, the effect due to construction & operational activity of the

proposed project is explained.

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-2

4.2 IDENTIFICATION OF IMPACT

This chapter deals with the assessment of project impacts on

environment. Mitigation measures are suggested to minimize the likely

negative impacts. The network method (Cause - effect) was adopted to

identify potential impact of the proposed activity. It includes stepwise

study of relationship between an activity and its environmental

parameters. This method involves in the “Road Map” type of approach to

the identification of second & third order effect. The basic idea is to

account for the project activity & identify the type of impact that could

initially occur followed by the identification of secondary and tertiary

impact.

The project will have impacts of varying magnitude on different

environmental components. These impacts could be categorized as -

Primary impacts, i.e. impacts which occur as a direct result of the

project activities.

Secondary and tertiary impacts, i.e. impacts that occur as a result

of primary impacts.

4.2.1 Identification of Impacting Activities

Various activities involved in the project are divided viz.:

A. Construction phase activities: impacts are immediate, in the vicinity

and sporadic

B. Operation phase activities: impacts are long term, in wide area and

continuous

The activities identified for the project under each phase are:

Construction phase

Excavation

Foundation & Civil work

Transportation of construction materials, equipments & machineries

Installation of equipments & machineries

Operation phase

Plant operation

Material storage & handling

Utilities and services

Green belt development

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-3

4.2.2 Identification of Environment Attributes

There are various types of impacts arise due to the proposed activities

which will be evaluated considering the following environment parameters

in construction and operational phase,

Impact on Topography

Impact on Air Environment

Impact on Water Environment

Impact on Noise Environment

Impact on Land Environment (Hazardous/solid waste generation)

Impact on Biological Environment

Impact on Socio-Economic Environment

Impact on Occupational Health & Safety

4.3 IMPACT ON TOPOGRAPHY

Unit will be situated at Survey No. 1384, Village: Rajpur, Tal: Kadi, Dist:

Mehsana, Gujarat. Proposed land is already converted from agriculture to

non-agriculture for industrial purpose. During the construction, excavated

soil will be restored to its original shape. Thus, the impact during the

construction is reversible, for short terms and insignificant. Construction

of plant & building will be carried out for proposed unit. During the

operational phase of the project, no major impact is envisaged on the

topography.

4.4 IMPACT ON AIR ENVIRONMENT

a. Construction Phase impact & mitigation measures

During construction phase, there will be chances of dust generation due

to the construction activities to be carried out as per the plant design. It

will be limited up to working area only and not likely to spread in wider

area. To mitigate the impact, regular sprinkling of the water will be done.

Vehicular traffic may lead to increased concentration pollutants through

exhaust gases, affecting the ambient air quality of surrounding areas;

vehicles only with PUC certificates will be allowed. However, this effect

remains localized near to the plant site and during the time of vehicular

movement only. Thus, overall impact is envisaged as short-term negative

& reversible in nature. Hence, looking to the overall facts described

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-4

above, it can be concluded that, the impacts on air due to the

construction & erection activities will be minimum or negligible.

b. Operational phase impact & mitigation measures

Long term impacts on the air quality are anticipated due to operational

activities. It depends on various factors like process technology,

operation & maintenance, raw material, fuel, air pollution control

measures. For the study of impact assessment for air environment, all

probable emissions are studied including fugitive emission. The sources

and expected emission level are described in below section.

Emission from the project

Flue gas emission will be from stack attached with boilers, Hot Air

Generator & Thermic Fluid Heater, where low sulfur coal will be used as

fuel; and standby D.G. Set in which Diesel will be used as fuel. Process

emission will be from the vents attached to Reaction Vessels of

Multipurpose Plant – 2 sets and Reaction Vessel of Chloranil. Additionally,

spray dryer is also considered as source of process emission. Main

pollutants from flue gas stack will be SPM, SO2 and NOx and PM, SO2 and

HCl are pollutants emit from process.

Mitigation measures

All the flue gas stacks except stack of D.G. Set will be equipped with

Cyclone & bag filter as APCM. Spray dryer will be equipped with Cyclone

+ Scrubber + Sub merged type gas bubbling tank. Alkali scrubbers will

be provided on process gas stack attached to reaction/ process vessels (2

sets) and water scrubber will be provided on process gas stack attached

to Reaction/ Process vessels (Chloranil) as APCM. The details of process

gas stacks with their APC measures & height are given in Table 2.8.

4.4.1 Air Pollution Dispersion Modeling of stack

Following sub-section give air dispersion modeling details for prediction of

changes in GLC of pollutants emitted from the above stacks.

Objective: The objective of dispersion modeling is to predict the ground

level concentration during the operation of the project and its impact on

ambient air quality of the area concentrations and compare with

applicable NAAQS.

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-5

Model used: The impact on air quality due to emissions from single

source or group of sources is evaluated by use of mathematical models.

The impacts of air pollutants were predicted using Gaussian air dispersion

model, which is selected on the basis of existence of multiple point

sources within the industrial complex and the plain terrain at the project

site. In order to predict the impact of air pollutants on ambient air

quality, ISCST3 model (Industrial Source Complex – Short Term

(ISCST3) dispersion model) of United State Environmental Protection

Agency (USEPA) was used by considering guidelines stipulated by CPCB

for air pollution dispersion modeling. The Gaussian model provides

estimates of pollutant concentrations at various receptor locations.

It is an hour-by-hour steady state Gaussian model which takes into

account the following:

Terrain adjustments

Stack-tip downwash

Gradual plume rise

Buoyancy-induced dispersion, and

Complex terrain treatment and consideration of partial reflection

Plume reflection off elevated terrain

Building down wash

Partial penetration of elevated inversions is accounted for Hourly

source emission rates, exit velocity and stack gas temperature

Only two stability conditions based on the meteorology aspects were used

to calculate the theoretical maximum ground level concentration is

comparing the actual data and data generated from mathematical

modeling, it highlights that the stability condition E & A-B were

predominant in the region.

Following are the assumptions made while using the model:

- No dry and wet depletion of pollutants

- Receptors are on flat terrain

The key emitted pollutants will be SPM, SO2, & NOx & HCl.

4.4.2 Micrometeorology

Hourly micrometeorological data collected during the study period

(January 2019 to March 2019) have been used for modeling. The

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-6

hourly wind speed, solar insolation & total cloudiness during day time and

wind speed & total cloudiness during night time were used to determine

the hourly atmospheric stability classes (defined by Pasquill and Gifford

as A to F, A being most unstable and F being most stable). The hourly

stability classes were determined based on the technique suggested by

Turner.

Turner’s system used for determining the stability classes is as follows:

- For day or night: If total cloud cover (TC) = 10/10 and ceiling

<7000 ft (2134 m), NR=0

- For night-time (defined as period from one hour before sunset to

one hour after sunrise):

a) If TC<4/10, use NR = -2

b) If TC>4/10, use NR = -1

- For daytime: determine isolation class number (IN)

a) If TC<5/10, use NR=IN

b) If TC>5/10, modify IN by the sum of the following applicable

criteria

If ceiling<7000 ft (2134 m), modification = -2

If ceiling>7000 ft but <16000 ft (4877 m), modification = -1

- If TC=10/10 and ceiling>7000 ft, modification = -1 and let modified

value of IN=NR, except for day-time NR cannot be <+1.

During the study period, stability calculated based on above-mentioned

Turner method gives average stability as A-B class during Day time and E

class during Night time.

4.4.3 Input data

Stack emissions data have been used for prediction of incremental GLC

values of SPM, SO2, NOx and HCl using one season meteorological data

during (January, 2019 to March, 2019). Input data includes

quantitative expected emission levels, temperature, and mixing height

from the stack. Input data is given in Table 4.1.

4.4.4 Receptor Network

Uniform polar grid and ambient air monitoring locations are considered as

discrete Cartesian receptor network for entire study area of 10 km radius.

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-7

4.4.5 Output of model (24-hourly GLCs)

The 24-hourly average Ground Level Concentration (GLC) values from

project have been computed for SPM, SO2, NOx & HCl considering

topographical features around the plant & applicable stability classes. The

maximum 50 (24-hr) average concentration values for SPM, SO2, NOx &

HCl are given in Table 4.3 to 4.6. Corresponding Isopleths for 24-hourly

predicted value is generated which is shown in Figure 4.1 to 4.4.

It may be noted from the computed result for the proposed scenario that,

the highest 24-hourly average GLCs value of SPM, SO2, NOx & HCl from

the proposed activity are 4.161 g/m3, 3.154 g/m3, 1.702 g/m3 and

0.099 g/m3, respectively. These GLCs are expected to occur at a

distance of 1.0 km from the source in E direction. With this marginal

contribution due to the proposal of the project, the levels of PM10, SO2,

NOx & HCl will remain well below the 24-hourly ambient air quality

standards for SO2 & NOx (80 g/m3), PM10 (100 g/m3), PM2.5 (60 g/m3)

prescribed by CPCB.

4.4.6 Incremental & cumulative concentration of pollutants

The maximum incremental GLCs due to project for SPM, SO2, NOx, HCl is

superimposed on the baseline concentrations recorded during the study

period to arrive at the likely resultant concentrations after

implementation of the proposed plant. The cumulative concentrations

(baseline + incremental) of the project is tabulated below at Table 4.2.

4.4.7 Conclusion

The modeling study proved that, the air emissions from the proposed

activities would not likely to cause any significant impact on the ambient

air quality of the study area. The ambient air quality around project site

will remain within the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS)

prescribed for residential area.

4.5 IMPACT ON WATER ENVIRONMENT

The main sources of impact on water environment will be due to

withdrawal of fresh water from the ground during construction and

operation phase. These are discussed below.

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-8

a. Construction Phase impacts & mitigation measures

The water requirement for various purposes will be met from ground

water. During construction work, water requirement is estimated to be

about 10-15 KLD depending upon nature of construction work. In addition

to this, about 1-2 KLD fresh water will be required for domestic activities

of the construction staff which will also be met through the same source.

There will be no wastewater generation from the construction work.

Hence, it can be concluded that there will be no adverse impact during

construction phase.

b. Operational Phase impacts & mitigation measures

Total water requirement (Industrial + Domestic + Greenbelt) at Urmit

Chemicals will be 178 KLD; out of which 103 KLD will be fresh water

requirement & 75 KLD will be recycle/treated water. Unit will satisfy its

fresh water demand from groundwater source. Major water demand will

be industrial – mainly Process (45 KLD), Scrubber (14 KLD), Washing (25

KLD), Cooling (45 KLD) and Boiler (30 KLD).

Total wastewater generation will be 132.5 KLD, of which 7.5 KLD will be

domestic wastewater and the rest will be industrial wastewater. The main

source of the industrial wastewater generation will be from process (80

KLD), Scrubber (2 KLD), Washing (25 KLD) and utilities (Boiler & cooling

- 18 KLD). Comprehensive details are mentioned in Table 2.6; Water

balance diagram in Figure 2.5 in Chapter 2.

The wastewater generated will be segregated into two streams for

treatment. Process wastewater will be treated in “ETP-1”. Wastewater

from utilities (cooling & boiler), washing and scrubber will be treated in

“ETP-2”. Effluent from “ETP-1” will be sent to Common Spray Drying

facility at Chhatral Environment Management System Pvt. Ltd. for

evaporation. Effluent from “ETP-2” will be sent to RO and permeate will

be reused; RO reject will be sent to common Spray Drying facility.

Domestic wastewater will be discharged into soak pit.

c. Impact Assessment

As fresh water will be met from Bore well water supply, unit will balance

it by recharging ground water during the monsoon. Hence, insignificant

impact envisage on ground water. Industry will develop rain water

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-9

harvesting structures nearby project area. So, there will not be any major

impact on the water environment due to proposed activities.

Mitigation Measures:

Minimum use of water will be done for construction phase.

Maximum reuse of water from RO during operational phase.

Regular maintenance of rain water harvesting structures shall be

undertaken to have effective recharge.

4.6 IMPACT ON NOISE ENVIRONMENT

Any unwanted sound that creates disturbance in hearing is termed as

Noise. Hence, it is important to assess the present noise quality of the

area in order to predict the potential impact of future noise levels due to

the project.

a. Construction Phase Impact & mitigation measures

During the construction phase at Urmit Chemicals impacts on noise level

will occur due to the noise generation from new equipments/machineries

as well as some impact due to transportation. Mainly the impacts of

increased noise levels during construction are likely to occur due to

increase movement of trucks & other diesel-powered material handling

equipment. The impacts of noise during the construction would be

restricted to the site only and will be temporary. PPEs like ear muff/ear

plug will be provided to the workers. Regular maintenance & lubrication

of construction equipment & machineries will be undertaken to reduce the

noise generation. Thus, it is envisaged that the impacts on noise during

the construction phase would be insignificant after mitigation measure.

b. Operational Phase Impact & mitigation measures

During operation of Urmit Chemicals, noise levels will increase due to

manufacturing process activities. The noise anticipated from the project

will be confined only within plant boundary. Adequate greenbelt will be

developed for prevention of noise propagation outside plant premises.

Oiling/lubrication & preventive maintenance will be done to reduce noise

generation at source to the permissible limit. However, at places where

noise levels may exceed the limit, PPEs will be provided to workers.

Adequate noise control measures such as silencers, anti-vibration pad

etc. will be provided. All the equipment will be designed/ operated in such

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-10

a way that the noise level in work place shall not exceed 85 dB(A) as per

the OSHA Standard. During operation, the protective measures like PPEs

(ear muff, ear plug) will be provided & the exposure duration of

workers/other personnel to noise will be managed as per OSHA standard.

The results of baseline monitoring carried out in the region are presented

in Chapter-3. The results are below the standards prescribed for

Industrial environment. It can be concluded that, the impact on noise

environment will be long term but insignificant.

4.7 IMPACT ON LAND ENVIRONMENT

The main source of impact on land and soil environment results due to

construction activities and hazardous waste disposal.

a. Construction Phase Impact & mitigation measures

The construction activities like excavation, clearing, leveling & vehicular

movements will entail change in the landscape, which are expected to be

of short duration and insignificant. Unit will provide sanitation facilities for

the staff engaged in construction work which will prevent the impacts on

land. Thus, there will not be any issue of impacts on land during the

construction phase.

b. Operational Phase impact (Solid/Hazardous Waste)

During the operation phase, it is identified that the impacts on land would

occur due to the contamination by Solid/Hazardous wastes. The

hazardous wastes are the major source of impacts on land. Hazardous

waste generation from project must be considered to identify the

potential impacts. At Urmit Chemicals, entire quantity of the hazardous

wastes will be stored in the isolated hazardous waste storage area within

premises having impervious platform having RCC floor, leachate

collection system & roof cover and disposed as per the scientific method.

Main source of hazardous waste will be wastewater treatment, generating

ETP sludge (150 MTPM). Hazardous waste from process will be HCl (20-

22%) (52 MTPM), Spent Sulphuric acid (780 MTPM), Calcium Thio

Sulphite (78 MTPM), Acetic Acid (104 MTPM), Sodium Bisulphite (260

MTPM), Iron sludge (52 MTPM) and Spent catalyst (0.5 MTPM).

Discarded containers (10000 Nos./month) /liners (1.0 MTPM) and used

lubricating oil (0.5 KL/yr).

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-11

Mitigation Measures:

Entire quantity of hazardous waste will be handled & disposed as per

Hazardous & Other waste (Management & Transboundary Movement)

Rules, 2016. ETP sludge will be disposed of at approved TSDF site. Iron

sludge will be sold to cement manufacturer or disposed at TSDF site. HCl,

Calcium Thio Sulphite will be sold to actual users under Haz. Waste rule,

Spent Sulphuric acid (H2SO4), Acetic Acid, Sodium Bisulphite will be

reused within the process or sold to actual users. Spent catalyst will be

sent for regeneration to the suppliers. Discarded containers/liners will be

disposed of by selling to registered recyclers; used lubricating oil will be

disposed by selling to registered recyclers. The unit will provided isolated

area with impervious flooring & roof cover for the storage of hazardous

waste. No adverse impact on the land environment is likely to occur.

Hence, no significant negative impact is envisaged on the surrounding soil

quality.

4.8 IMPACT ON BIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENT

a. Construction phase impact & mitigation measures

This is a Greenfield project; hence minor cutting of trees/shrubs will be

done to clean the area. However, it will be balanced by developing

greenbelt within premises and along the roads. Various trees, shrubs and

herbs are found in and around it, a list of which is given in baseline. None

of the plants are in the list of endangered plant species. Also, the trees

are identified for their sensitivity & pollution tolerance capacity. This

concept helps to plan the greenbelt of the area making it less polluted

and a pollution absorber. Thus, it is envisaged that there will not be any

adverse impacts on the ecology/biological environment in construction

phase.

b. Operational phase impact & mitigation measures

There are no protected areas like national park/wildlife sanctuary within

the 10 km radial of the project site, so there will not be any significant

impact on ecology. No endangered floral or faunal species has been

recorded within the study area. Further, unit will develop greenbelt to

enhance the biological feature of the site. Also, the trees are identified for

their sensitivity & pollution tolerance capacity.

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

There will not be any discharge of effluent on land or any receiving body

from Urmit Chemicals, and entire quantity of hazardous waste will be

handled & disposed as per Hazardous & Other Waste (Management &

Transboundary Movement) Rules, 2016. Hence there will not be any

impact on aquatic ecology of the surrounding area. GLCs of air pollutants

will remain low and hence no significant impact on terrestrial ecology is

expected. Thus, there will not be any significant impact on ecological

environment.

4.9 IMPACT ON SOCIO-ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT

a. Construction Phase Impacts & mitigation measures

During the peak construction phase, construction manpower including

construction workers will be employed. However, to the maximum extent

possible, construction workers will be employed from within the study

area. Since the construction phase of this project will be for short time

period, the socio-economic impact due to construction of this project is

going to be temporary. Around 25-30 workers will be employed in the

construction work. This will increase construction employment in the

study area. As the construction phase for the proposed project will be few

months, the impact would be temporary.

b. Operation Phase Impacts & mitigation measures

The proposed unit will be located in private land, so no displacement of

person is envisaged. Unit will provide employment opportunity to locally

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-13

available skilled and un-skilled labors at different level as per the

requirement, which in turn result into a positive impact on prevailing

socio-economic environment. For the proposed activities, 100 nos. of

workers will be employed. In addition, employment will be generated by

the secondary supporting activities e.g. transportation, communication,

daily utility services. Surrounding area has got good educational facilities

and most of employees will come from the surrounding area. Thus,

overall impacts on socio-economic environment are long term and

positive in nature.

4.10 IMPACT ON OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH & SAFETY

a. Construction Phase Impacts & mitigation measures

In the Construction phase, some effects on occupational health & safety

of the employees working in the site are envisaged. Major health issues

encountered will be physical hazards & accidental hazards. All plans and

construction schedule will be followed as per relevant laws approved by

competent authority, so as to minimize the occupational health hazards.

Mitigation Measures

Necessary PPEs like helmets, ear plug/ear muff, safety shoes,

goggles etc. will be provided to workers.

Incident/accident reporting system will be developed and all the

employees will be made aware for the same.

Periodic inspection & testing of equipments & machineries will be

done.

b. Operational Phase Impacts & mitigation measures

In operational phase, various effects on occupational health and safety of

the employees working in the plant are envisaged. Major health and

safety issues encountered will be physical hazards, respiratory hazards,

electrical hazards, noise, fire hazards associated while working within the

plant. Preventive safety measures shall be taken to minimize the risk of

accident with respect to chemical handling.

Mitigation Measures

Emergency preparedness plan should be implemented.

First aid/other emergency treatment should be provided.

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 4-14

Workers shall be well equipped with PPEs. Only authorized persons

will be allowed inside the plant.

A health monitoring program shall be in place to monitor the health

of the persons working on the site to ensure the health status of all

concerned.

Fire extinguishers will be installed at different locations.

Sign boards will be displayed at designated locations indicating

appropriate hazard warnings.

Good house-keeping will be ensured within the factory premises.

4.11 IMPACT ON EXITING TRAFFIC SYSTEM

The traffic load is to be increased due to proposed project for the

transportation of finished goods and raw materials. Calculation of

transport load is summarized below.

Production: 400 MT/month and 1450 MT/month of different type of

hazardous waste which need to transport outside of factory premises.

Considering 26 days = 1850/26 = 71 Ton/day

Considering 20 T truck load = 71/10 = 7.1 say 7 nos. of vehicles/d

Generally, trucks use for raw materials are used for movement of finished

products. However, we are considering same numbers of truck for raw

material transportation i.e. 7.0 x 2 = 14

Considering to and fro movement, number of trucks passing per day will

be 14 x 2 = 14 nos.

Equivalent PCUs = 3.5 x 28 = 98/day

As per Indian Road Congress, a 4 lane divided road has a carrying

capacity of 2000 PCUs per hr.

Additional traffic from our project will be estimated 98 PCU/day

[28 trucks (in & out) x 3.5] and 25 PCU/day from car and

motorcycle, which have insignificant impact on existing traffic

load.

Existing Traffic Scenario and Level of Services

There will not be any major increase in transportation activity due to

proposed project as compared to present carrying capacity, which is

covered in Table 3.27 of Chapter-3 of EIA report.

Analysis of Alternatives

5.1 PROLOGUE

Alternative analysis is the process of analyzing the proposed locating for

suitability for basic necessities to operate the plant safely, this analysis

also covers the environmental aspect of pollution prevention and

improvement in quality of life nearby the project vicinity. The project

alternative is the course of action in pace of another, that would meet the

same purpose and need, but which would avoid or minimize negative

impacts and enhance project benefits. Such projects may result in

specific impacts which can be avoided or mitigated by adherence to

certain predetermined performance standards, guidelines or design

criteria. Alternative approaches may therefore be more effective in

integrating environmental and social concerns into the project planning

process.

5.2 SITE ALTERNATIVE

Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. is a Greenfield project, proposes to set up

Dyes and Dye Intermediates manufacturing unit at Survey No. 1384,

Village: Rajpur, Tal: Kadi, Dist: Mehsana, Gujarat. Total production

capacity of all products will be tune around 400 MT/month. The area of

the plot (5662 m2) is sufficient for proposed activities to be carried out.

Required facilities like infrastructure, communication, medical facilities,

fuel, water, power, unskilled & skilled manpower, raw materials, road

network etc. are readily available, too. There is no Rehabilitation and

Resettlement involved. Nearest city Mehsana is about 26 km away from

the site, which is having connectivity with other parts of the country by

road, rail & air. Therefore, no other site or area was considered.

Environmental Monitoring Programme

6.1 PRELUDE

Environment monitoring is the sampling and analysis tool to know the

environment conditions at particular time. The record of environmental

monitoring is most important as the environmental changes are slow in

nature and impact appears after many years. Environmental Monitoring is

the technical heart of assessment of environmental and social impacts

arising due to implementation of the proposed project. An equally

essential element of this process is to develop measures to eliminate,

offset or reduce impacts to acceptable levels during implementation and

operation of projects. The integration of such measures into project

implementation and operation is supported by clearly defining the

environmental requirements within an Environmental Management Plan.

Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. proposed to manufacture dyes and dye

intermediates with production capacity of 400 MT/month. The

environmental monitoring programme is developed as below.

6.2 ENVIRONMENT MONITORING PROGRAM

The periodically monitoring of Environmental parameters like air, water,

noise, soil and performance of pollution control facilities and safety

measures in the plant are vital for proper Environmental management of

any industrial project. Therefore, the company shall create environmental

monitoring facilities by the environmental and safety department to

monitor air and water pollutants as per the guideline of GPCB & CPCB.

Moreover, air and water quality shall be monitored by outside agencies

authorized by GPCB at regular frequencies. This department shall also

carry out periodical checkup of fire and safety equipments.

6.3 OBJECTIVE OF MONITORING PLAN

The basic objective of implementing a monitoring plan on a regular basis

is as follows:

To know the pollution status within the plant and its vicinity.

recommended for monitoring the ground level concentrations and fugitive

emissions around the plant. Unit should install three monitoring stations

around its battery limit (at 1200 as per guideline) for monitoring PM, SO2

and NOx. The combined data will provide overall characteristic and

emission from the industry. Besides this, stack emissions monitoring as

per SPCB guidelines shall be carried out. Proposed monitoring schemes

are mentioned in Table 6.1.

6.6 WATER ENVIRONMENT MONITORING

Total wastewater generation will be 132.5 KLD, of which 7.5 KLD will be

domestic wastewater and the rest will be industrial wastewater. The main

source of the industrial wastewater generation will be from process (80

KLD), Scrubber (2 KLD), Washing (25 KLD) and utilities (Boiler & cooling

- 18 KLD).

The wastewater generated will be separated into two streams for

treatment. Process wastewater from intermediates plant will be treated in

“ETP-1”. Then it will be sent Common Spray Dryer for evaporation at

Chhatral Environment Management system Pvt. Ltd. Effluent from dyes

plant, Scrubber, Washing and utilities (cooling & boiler) will be treated in

“ETP-2”. Treated effluent will be sent to RO and the RO permeate will be

reused; RO reject will be Spray Dried along with effluent of ETP-1.

Domestic wastewater will be discharged into soak pit. ETP sludge will be

disposed to approve TSDF site. Domestic effluent will be disposed to soak

pit. The detail of water usage and wastewater generation is provided

comprehensively in Chapter 2. Proposed monitoring schemes are

mentioned in Table 6.1.

6.7 NOISE ENVIRONMENT MONITORING

Main source of noise generation at Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. will be

boilers, HAG, THF, D.G. set, process plant, vehicular transportation &

other machineries. Monitoring of noise levels is essential to assess the

efficacy of maintenance schedules undertaken to reduce noise levels and

Additional Studies A. Hazard Analysis & Risk Assessment

7.1 INTRODUCTION

Industrial plants deal with materials, which are generally hazardous in

nature by virtue of their intrinsic chemical properties or their operating

temperatures or pressures or a combination of these. Fire, explosion,

toxic release or combinations of these are the hazards associated with

industrial plants using hazardous chemicals. More comprehensive,

systematic and sophisticated methods of Safety Engineering, such as,

Hazard Analysis and Quantitative Risk Assessment have now been

developed to improve upon the integrity, reliability and safety of

industrial plants. The primary emphasis in safety engineering is to reduce

risk to human life, property and environment. Some of the more

important methods used to achieve this are:

Quantitative Risk Analysis: Provides a relative measure of the

likelihood and severity of various possible hazardous events by

critically examining the plant process and design.

Work Safety Analysis: The technique discerns whether the plant

layout and operating procedures in practice have any inherent

infirmities.

Safety Audit: Takes a careful look at plant operating conditions, work

practices and work environments to detect unsafe conditions.

7.2 RISK ASSESSMENT-Identification of Hazards

M/s. Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. Is proposed unit proposed to produce

Dyes and Dye Intermediates at Survey No. 1384, Village: Rajpur, Tal:

Kadi, Dist: Mehsana, Gujarat Total production capacity of the proposed

products will be 400 MT/month. A three ‗levels‘ risk assessment approach

has been adopted. The risk assessment levels are generally consistent

with the practices encountered through various assignments for medium

and large chemical complexes. The brief outline of the three tier approach

is given below:

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 7-2

Level 1 – Risk Screening

This is top-down review of worst-case potential hazards/risks, aimed

primarily at identifying plant sites or areas within plant, which pose the

highest risk. Various screening factors considered include:

Inventory of hazardous materials;

Hazardous Materials properties;

Storage conditions (e.g. temperature and pressure);

Location sensitivity (distance to residential areas/populace).

The data/information is obtained from plant. The results provide a

relative indication of the extent of hazards and potential for risk

exposure.

Level 2 – Major Risk Survey (Semi - Quantitative)

The survey approach combines the site inspection with established risk

assessment techniques applied both qualitative as well quantitative

mode. The primary objective is to identify and select major risks at a

specific location in the plant considering possible soft spots/weak links

during operation/maintenance. Aspects covered in the risk usually

include:

Process Hazards;

Process Safety Management Systems;

Fire Protection and Emergency response equipment and programs.

Security Vulnerability;

Impact of hazards consequences (equipment damage, business

interruption, injury, fatalities);

Qualitative risk identification of scenarios involving hazardous

materials;

Risk reduction measures.

Selection of critical scenarios and their potential of damage provide

means of prioritising mitigative measures and allocate the resources to

the areas with highest risks.

Level 3 – Quantitative Risk Assessment (Deterministic)

This is the stage of assessment of risks associated with all credible

hazards (scenarios) with potential to cause an undesirable outcome such

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 7-3

as human injury, fatality or destruction of property. The four basic

elements include:

Hazards identification utilizing formal approach (Level 2, HAZOP etc.);

Frequency Analysis. Based on past safety data (incidents/accidents);

Identifying likely pathway of failures and quantifying the toxic material

release;

Hazards analysis to quantify the consequences of various hazards

scenarios (fire, explosion, BLEVE, toxic vapour release etc.). Establish

minimum value for damage (e.g. IDLH, over pressure, radiation flux)

to assess the impact on environment.

Risk Quantification: Quantitative techniques are used considering

effect/impact due to weather data, population data, and frequency of

occurrences and likely hood of ignition/toxic release. Data are

analyzed considering likely damage (in terms of injury/fatality,

property damage) each scenarios is likely to cause.

QRA provides a means to determine the relative significance of a number

of undesired events, allowing analyst and the team to focus their risk

reduction efforts where they will be beneficial most. The QRA for this

plant is based on Level 1 and Level 2. Table 2.2 in Chapter 2 gives the

list of products (and their monthly production capacity) to be

manufactured. Table below gives the bulk storages of hazardous

chemicals and their consumption.

7.3 HAZARDOUS MATERIALS STORAGE

The solid raw materials will be received in bags or drums and will be

stored in chemicals godowns. The products will be packed in bags or

drums and stored in product godowns as per market demand. The bulk

storages of liquid hazardous materials are given in the Table 7.1 below.

In addition unit will store fuels mainly Coal for boiler, HAG, TFH and

Diesel (in limited quantity) for D.G. Set (during power failure only). The

solid material powder or granules spillage can results in polluting small

area only. The damage to personnel can be through ingress- dermal (if

individual come in contact), oral (if individual food gets infected through

fugitive dust) or inhalation (fugitive dust). The main route is fugitive dust

which in covered area will move to short distance only. The risk is

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 7-4

through liquid products which are volatile material. The toxic vapours due

to spillage of such material can travel to some distance (as they are

stored in covered godowns) and cause damage.

7.4 RISK SCREENING APPROACH

Risk screening of Urmit Chemicals was undertaken through process study

and study of data/information provided by the unit. Data of major/bulk

storages of raw materials, intermediates and other chemicals were

collected. MSDS of hazardous chemicals were studied vis a vis their

inventories and mode of storage. The chemicals stored in bulk and

defined under MSIHC Rule will be considered for detailed analysis. None

of the products are covered under MSIHC Rules. Raw materials under

hazardous category as specified by MSIHC Rules, 1989 (including

subsequent amendments) are as below,

7.4.1 Acute Exposure Guideline Levels (AEGLs)

AEGLs estimate the concentrations at which most people - including

sensitive individuals such as old, sick, or very young people - will begin to

experience health effects if they are exposed to a hazardous chemical for

a specific length of time (duration). For a given exposure duration, a

chemical may have up to three AEGL values, each of which corresponds

to a specific tier of health effects. AEGLs of the materials are as below.

The 3 tiers are defined as follows:

AEGL-3 is ―the airborne concentration of a substance above which it is

predicted that the general population, including susceptible individuals,

could experience life-threatening adverse health effects or death.‖

AEGL-2 is ―the airborne concentration of a substance above which it is

predicted that the general population, including susceptible individuals,

could experience irreversible or other serious, long-lasting adverse

health effects or an impaired ability to escape.‖

AEGL-1 is ―the airborne concentration of a substance above which it is

predicted that the general population, including susceptible individuals,

could experience notable discomfort, irritation, or certain asymptomatic

no sensory effects.‖

7.5 QRA APPROACH

Identification of hazards and likely scenarios (based on Level-1 and

Level-2 activities) calls for detailed analysis of each scenario for potential

of damage, impact area (may vary with weather conditions/wind

direction) and safety system in place. Subsequently each incident is

classified according to relative risk classifications provided in Table 7.4.

Table 7.4: Risk Classification

Stage Description

High

(> 10-2/yr.)

A failure which could reasonably be expected to occur within the

expected life time of the plant.

Examples of high failure likelihood are process leaks or single

instrument or valve failures or a human error which could result in

releases of hazardous materials.

Moderate

(10-2 --10-4/yr.)

A failure or sequence of failures which has a low probability of

occurrence within the expected lifetime of the plant.

Examples of moderate likelihood are dual instrument or valve

failures, combination of instrument failures and human errors, or

single failures of small process lines or fittings.

Low

(<10-4)

A failure or series of failures which have a very low probability of

occurrence within the expected lifetime of plant.

Examples of ‗low‘ likelihood are multiple instruments or valve

failures or multiple human errors, or single spontaneous failures of

tanks or process vessels.

Minor Incidents Impact limited to the local area of the event with potent for ‗knock

– on- events‘

Serious Incident One that could cause:

Any serious injury or fatality on/off site;

Property damage of more than 50 Lakhs INR

Extensive Incident One that is five or more times worse than a serious incident.

Assigning a relative risk to each scenario provides a means of prioritising

associated risk mitigation measures and planned actions.

7.6 THERMAL HAZARDS

In order to understand the damages produced by various scenarios, it is

appropriate to understand the physiological/physical effects of thermal

radiation intensities. The thermal radiation due to tank fire usually results

in burn on the human body. Furthermore, inanimate objects like

equipment, piping, cables, etc. may also be affected and also need to be

evaluated for damages. Table 7.5, Table 7.6 and Table 7.7 (below),

respectively give tolerable intensities of various objects and desirable

escape time for thermal radiation.

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 7-11

Thermal hazards could be from fires or explosion. Fire releases energy

slowly while explosion release energy very rapidly (typically in micro

seconds). Explosion is rapid expansion of gases resulting in rapidly

moving shock wave. BLEVE (boiling liquid expanding vapour explosion)

occurs if a vessel containing a liquid at a temperature above its

atmospheric boiling point ruptures. The subsequent BLEVE is the

explosive vaporization of large fraction of its vapour contents; possibly

followed by combustion or explosion of the vaporized cloud if it is

combustible. Thermal hazards have been considered for various scenarios

including: Fire in inflammable chemicals storage tanks.

7.7 DAMAGE DUE TO EXPLOSION

The explosion of a dust or gas (either as a deflagration or detonation)

results in a reaction front moving outwards from the ignition source

preceded by a shock wave or pressure front. After the combustible

material is consumed the reaction front terminates but the pressure wave

continues its outward movement. Blast damage is based on the

determination of the peak overpressure resulting from the pressure wave

impacting on the object or structure. Damage estimates based on

overpressure are given in Table 7.8 below:

Table 7.8: Damage due to Overpressure

Sr. No.

Overpressure (psig/bar)

Damage

1. 0.04 Loud Noise/sonic boom glass failure

2. 0.15 Typical pressure for glass failure

3. 0.5 - 1 Large and small windows usually shattered

4. 0.7 Minor damage to house structure

5. 1 Partial demolition of houses, made uninhabitable

6. 2.3 Lower limit of serious structure damage

7. 5 - 7 Nearly complete destruction of houses

8. 9 Loaded train box wagons completely demolished

9. 10 Probable total destruction of houses

10. 200 Limits of crater lip

In case of Urmit Chemicals, explosion probability is remote.

7.8 TOXIC RELEASE

For toxic release the damage criteria considered is IDLH concentration (if

data are available). The immediately dangerous to life or health air

concentration values (IDLH values) developed by the National Institute

for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) characterize these high-risk

exposure concentrations and conditions and are used as a component of

respirator selection criteria. IDLH values are established (1) to ensure

that the worker can escape from a given contaminated environment in

the event of failure of the respiratory protection equipment and (2) to

indicate a maximum level above which only a highly reliable breathing

apparatus, providing maximum worker protection, is permitted.

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 7-13

IDLH of all the materials stored in bulk are as below.

IDLH Value Unit

Sulfuric Acid/ Oleum 15 mg/m3

Sodium Hydroxide 10 mg/m3

Aniline 100 ppm

Hydrochloric acid 50 ppm

Nitric acid 25 ppm

Chlorine Gas 30 ppm

Acetic Acid 50 ppm

Acetic anhydride 200 ppm

7.9 ACID/ALKALI HAZARDS

Various hazards that can occur due to the acid and alkali incidents are

Skin irritation and corrosive effects after spillage

Spill pool evaporation of hydrochloric acid or Caustic lye storage

tanks catastrophic failure are limited only

Catastrophic failure giving rise to spill pool evaporation dispersion

up to LC50, IDLH and TLV level

Based on the outcome of the risk assessment, following recommendation

has been made to avoid any risk associated with the storage and use of

acids in the plant:

Full body protection will be provided to operator.

7.10 LIKELY FAILURE SCENARIOS

Few likely failure scenarios have been selected after critical appraisal of

raw materials and storage inventories. Failure scenarios selected are as

given in Table 7.9 below:

Table 7.9: Different Failure Scenarios

7.11 QUANTITATIVE RISK ASSESSMENT & CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS

7.11.1 PREAMBLE

In the previous section we have carried out the hazards analysis of Urmit

Chemicals considering various aspects including bulk storages of

hazardous chemicals, plant process system, plant incidents/accidents

records, critical appraisal and discussion at site for soft spots in the plant

etc. Based on the hazards analysis few critical scenarios have been

selected for QRA and consequence analysis. QRA quantifies vulnerable

zones for a conceived incident with various levels of severity.

In consequence calculation, use is made of a number of calculation

models to estimate the physical effects of an accident (spill of hazardous

material) and to predict the damage (lethality, injury, material

destruction and other property damage). The risk assessment modelling

can be roughly divided into three groups:

Determination of source strength parameters;

Determination of consequential effects;

Determination of damage or damage distances (with specific severity

rates)

7.11.2 Weather Effect

The effect of ambient conditions on the impact of fire/heat radiation and

GLC of hazardous/toxic material can be beneficial as well as harmful. A

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 7-15

high wind (turbulence) can dilute the toxic material while stable

environment can extend the reach of IDLH or IT (inhalation LC50 rats for

products) concentration to long distance. Any inflammable gas/vapour

release in turbulent weather will soon dilute the hazardous gases below

LEL and thus prevent the disaster.

7.12 INCIDENTS IMPACTS

The identified failure scenarios (Table 7.9) have been analyzed (Using

ALOHA and EFFECT Modules) for the impact zones considering damage

due to thermal and toxic impacts. Each incident will have Impact on the

surrounding environment which in extreme case may cross plant

boundary. The impact zones for various scenarios are given in Table

7.10 and shown in Figure 7.1 to 7.7.

7.13 CONSEQUENTIAL IMPACTS

The consequential impacts from each incident scenarios can be though

mainly toxic route. The damage can be on plant personnel (and

neighboring premises in case incident crosses boundary). The impact

zones for some of the hazards are shown in Figure 7.1 to 7.7.

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 7-19

7.13.1 Thermal and Explosion Hazards

Incidents involving thermal and explosion hazards are mainly due to fire

in tank farm. In case of Urmit, no explosive chemicals stored in premises

because no use of solvent or highly explosive chemicals.

7.13.2 Toxic Hazards

Toxic hazards are mainly due to chemicals/gas leakage/spillage and their

impact is limited to plant boundary and adjacent premises based on the

wind direction (Sulphuric acid ~410 meters; Oleum Tank leakage ~ 3100

m; Hydrochloric Acid Tank leakage ~ 13 m, Chlorine Gas leakage (SC-D

~ 500 m & (SC-E) ~ 700 m) However the consequences may go outside

the plant boundary if the incidents lead to domino effect, which is highly

unforeseeable.

7.13.3 Other Hazards

The other hazards in the plant include (but not limited to):

Other toxic hazards due to acids/other toxic spillages (mainly limited

to spillage area only).

Mechanical hazards due to machines/equipment.

Hazards due to individual soft spots like walking casually and noticing

a pit and falling or colliding/stumbling or slipping (not noticing a wet

place etc.).

7.13.4 Other Toxic Hazards

Acid spillage-its impact will be limited to spillage area. The spillage if

comes in contact with metal parts will produce hydrogen which is highly

flammable gas. Any person moving in area and getting splash will get the

injury. In addition the spillage will cause pollution problem. The spillage is

to be collected and neutralized for toxic contents before disposal.

7.14 OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH

In any eventuality, injured personnel will be immediately rushed to

hospital after giving first aid. All employees will be having regular medical

checkup as per norms. One dedicated on-site vehicle and local ambulance

service will be always (round the clock) accessible for meeting any

eventuality.

Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 7-20

Treatment of workers affected by accidental spillage of chemicals

There is wide range of chemicals present in the Chemical plants. The safe

cleanup of a chemical spill requires some knowledge of the properties and

hazards posed by the chemical & any added dangers posed by the

location of the spill. Employees must notify their immediate supervisor of

injury by spillage of chemicals or exposure to hazardous materials. All

injuries must be reported. Supervisor is responsible for reporting any

injuries or occupational illnesses to the management.

Following steps will be immediate taken by the Supervisor.

Identify spillage/leakages of hazardous chemicals

Chemical Exposure to Skin:

Immediately flush with cool water for at least 15 minutes. If there are no

visible burns, remove the cloth from burning part of body. Seek medical

attention if exposure/spillages occur major possible problems.

Chemical Exposure to Skin – Serious:

Remove all contaminated clothing. Locate the nearest emergency shower

and soak for at least 15 minutes. Have someone contact the Hospital for

immediate medical attention.

Chemicals in Eyes:

Irrigate eyes for at least 15 minutes with tempered water from

emergency eyewash station. Remove contact lenses if there is. Notify the

management and immediate medical attention.

Acid Fumes:

Anyone overcome by fumes should be removed to fresh air. Never

attempt to enter a location where potentially dangerous fumes might

place you at risk. If someone is down, contact emergency personnel and

let them enter. Self-breathing apparatus is required for persons entering

the affected area. Seek medical attention for exposure as soon as

possible.

Chemical Spills:

The safe clean-up of an acid spill requires some knowledge of the

properties and hazards posed by the acid and any added dangers posed

by the location of the spill. If you believe a spill is beyond your capacity

to clean up, do not attempt to do so by your own, immediately contact to

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 7-21

nearest fire/emergency station. Spill kits with instructions, absorbents,

neutralizing agents if applicable, protective equipment, and sealable

waste buckets should be present in plant area.

Following Steps to be taken for ensuring health and safety of

workers engaged in handling of Hazardous materials

Identify chemicals to be used, amounts required, condition followed as

per the MSDS guideline.

Evaluate the hazards posed by the chemicals and the process

conditions. The evaluation should cover toxic, physical, reactive, as

well as any other potential hazards posed by the respective chemicals.

Select appropriate controls to minimize risk, including use of

engineering controls, administrative controls, and Personal Protective

Equipment (PPE) to protect workers from hazards. The controls must

ensure that OSHA‘s Permissible Exposure Limits (PELs) are not

exceeded.

Avoid Underestimation of Risk of handling and its reaction.

Before working with chemicals, know the facility‘s policies and

procedures for how to handle an accidental spill or fire. Emergency

telephone numbers should be posted in a prominent area. Know the

location of all safety equipment and the nearest fire alarm and

telephone.

Provide popper Ventilation in the plant/process area.

Corrosive chemicals that require vented storage should be stored in

vented cabinets instead of in a chemical hood.

Local exhaust ventilation devices should be appropriate to the

operations in the plant.

Chemicals should be separated and stored according to hazard

category and compatibility.

7.15 CONCLUSION & RECOMMENDATIONS

The hazard analysis and risk assessment of few possible selected incident

scenarios indicates that most incidents will be limited to plant battery

limits, and have impact on adjoining area in very unlikely scenarios only.

Toxic hazards are mainly due to chemicals leakage/spillage and their

impact is limited to plant boundary and adjacent premises based on the

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 7-22

wind direction. The direction of impact will be in down wind direction

(wind direction and speed varies with season).

Some of the recommendations for Tank farm storage system are as given

below:

Dyke wall will be provided to storage tanks.

SOP will be prepared for Hydrochloric acid, Nitric acid, and Sulfuric

acid handling.

Fixed foam system with adequate capacity.

Regular ‗Hazard Survey‘ ensures the detection of leakage in the plant.

In house ‗capability building‘ to attend hazardous scenarios is to be

taken up through mock drills.

Train staff in attending such scenarios.

Human Factors: Human factors role in safety cannot be ignored. Odd

hours working and over/long hours work can drain out individual. It

shows in lack of efficiency and also the lack of apt attention the modern

chemical complex demand. They are to be closely looked into and

avoided, as

a. If no accident has happened so far probability of incident/accident

occurring increases.

b. ‗No accident‘/good safety record develops complacency inertia/over

confidence in the team. This attitude gives rise to gaps/soft spots in

the system giving chances to incidents/accidents.

c. Safety requires novelty. Routine training practices get stale with no

positive results. Look for novel scheme of training/ safety practices to

build up fresh impetus in safety.

guideline i.e. 1 tree/4 sqm.

Spaces, so that the trees may grow vertically and slightly increase

the effective height of the greenbelt.

Planting of trees in each row will be in staggered orientation.

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 10-8

The short trees (< 10 m height) will be planted in the first two rows

(towards plant side) of the green belt. The tall trees (> 10 m height)

will be planted in the outer three rows (away from plant side).

Planting methodology

The plantation shall be done in pits. The pit shall be refilled with soil after

the planting. The sampling of healthy, nursery raised, seedlings in

polythene containers shall be transported in baskets. Planting shall be

done after first monsoon showers. The level of soil is about 10 cm above

through. About 25 gm chemical fertilizers shall be added. Watering shall

be continued after plantation if any dry spells follows. Planted area shall

be inspected and mortality rate ensured for each species. The dead and

drying plant shall be replaced by fresh seedlings.

Selection of species for greenbelt

For the development of greenbelt, plants having simple big leaves and

native species are preferred to the plants. The plants are suitable for

greenbelt development based on gaseous exchange capacity of foliage

which is ascertained by the following characteristics:

The plant should be fast growing.

It should have thick canopy cover.

It should be perennial and evergreen.

It should have large leaf area index.

It should be indigenous.

It should be efficient in absorbing pollutants without significant effects

on plant growth.

The objectives of the industrial greenbelt are to improve the micro-

environment. The success depends on the type of land available and

selection of suitable tree species for pollution control. Selection of tree

species for industrial areas is influenced by the nature of industry. The

objective should be to ensure a green cover tolerating pollutant gases

and solid particulates present in the atmosphere. It is also advisable to

select suitable tree species and adopt simple techniques which require

minimum investment and care.

sewage generation. It will not be significant as water requirement would

be temporary during construction phase. Proper sanitation facilities with

adequate disposal system will be provided within the operational plant.

(b) Impacts during operation phase & Mitigation measures:

Fresh water requirement of the unit will be satisfied from bore well. Total

water requirement (Industrial + Domestic + Greenbelt) will be 178 KLD;

out of which 103 KLD will be fresh water requirement & 75 KLD will be

recycle/treated water (RO permeate).

Total industrial w/w generation will be 125 KLD. The wastewater

generated will be segregated into two streams for treatment. Process

effluent from Dye Intermediates plant (48 KLD) will be treated in “ETP-1”.

Then it will be sent to Common Spray Drying facility for evaporation at

Chhatral Environment Management System Pvt. Ltd. Wastewater from

Dyes plant, Scrubber, Washing and utilities (cooling & boiler) (77 KLD)

will be treated in “ETP-2”. After treatment, it will be passed through RO.

movement & construction activities. High noise producing activities will be

restricted to daytime only. Well maintained equipments will be used to

prevent noise. Usage of PPE by workers will be made compulsory.

(b) Impacts during operation phase & Mitigation measures:

During the operation phase, the noise levels may increase due to the

operation of boilers, reactors, D.G. sets and other machineries. The

impact is found to be insignificant outside the premises. Unit will provide

necessary PPEs like earplugs or earmuffs to all workers where exposure is

85 dB(A) or more. Selection of any new plant equipment will be made

with specification of low noise levels.

11.3.4 Summary of Impacts on Land Environment

(a) Impacts during construction phase & Mitigation measures:

The construction activities like excavation, leveling & vehicular

movements will change the landscape, which are expected to be of short

duration & insignificant. Preliminary activities like proper storage of

construction materials & proper management will be done within the

project area. Therefore, impact will be negligible. Unit will provide

sanitation facilities for the staff engaged in construction work which will

prevent the impacts on land.

(b) Impacts during operation phase & Mitigation measures:

Hazardous wastes will have significant negative impacts if disposed

unsystematically. Unit has provided all required structural facilities like

separate hazardous waste storage room with RCC floor, leachate

collection system, and concrete floors within premises. Hence, no

significant negative impact is envisaged on the land environment.

11.3.5 Summary of impact on Socio Economy

(a) Impacts during construction phase & Mitigation measures:

As this is a Greenfield project, workers for the construction work will be

required. Local contractors to be employed for construction, so no other

issues like social conflict are envisaged.

San Envirotech Pvt. Ltd., Ahmedabad

Draft EIA Report of Urmit Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. 11-11

Temporary employment generated during construction of project will

have beneficial impacts on economic environment.

(b) Impacts during operation phase & Mitigation measures:

Project will require about 100 persons for its operation, which result into

a positive impact on prevailing socio-economic environment. Project will

also have potential of indirect employment due to the increase

transportation activities, contractual works as well as opportunity of

trade. Thus, overall impacts on socio-economic environment are long

term and positive in nature.

11.3.6 Summary of impact on Ecology

There are no protected areas like National Park/Wildlife Sanctuary within

the 10 km radial periphery of the project site so there will not be any

significant impact on ecology.

Source and disposal of waste water

Effluent from Dyes plant will be treated in ETP-1 followed by RO, RO

permeate will be reused again. Effluent from dye intermediate will be

treated in ETP -2 along with RO reject and after that the entire effluent will

be spray dried in spray dryer. Domestic sewage will be disposed of through

a septic tank and soak pit system. Hence, Unit will maintain “Zero Liquid

Discharge”

Source and disposal of Hazardous wastes

There will be Ten sources of Solid/hazardous waste generation. ETP Sludge

& salt from Spray Dryer will be disposed off to approve TSDF site. Iron

sludge will be sold to the cement plant or disposed off to approve TSDF site. HCl

will be reused within premises. Spent sulfuric Acid will be reused within process

and partly sold to actual users. Calcium Thio Sulphite, Acetic Acid, Sodium

Bisulphite will be sold to actual user. Used/ Spent oil will be sold to actual

users and Containers/Barrels&liners will be sold to registered recyclers. The
