MINUTES OF2ND RECONSTITUTED EXPERT APPRAISAL ...

PM 10 (29 – 141 ug/m 3 ), NO x (10 – 64.7 ug/m 3 ) and SO 2 (8–43 ug/m 3 ). Solvent will berecovered through single stage condenser using cool water for circulation.Total fresh water requirement from ground water source will 20 m 3 /day.Industrial effluent generation will be 40 m 3 /day. Effluent (28 m3/day) will be recirculatedin the process. Remaining effluent will be treated in effluent treatment plant and treatedwater will be recycled/reused within the factory premises. Domestic effluent (0.8 m 3 /day)will be treated in septic tank followed by soak pit. No effluent will be discharged outsidethe premises and ‘Zero’ discharge will be adopted. Waste/used oil (25 l/yrs) will be soldto authorized recyclers / re-processors. Process solid waste will be neutralizedand usedfor manure. Power (100 KVA/MT of product) will be sourced from MGVCL.The Committee deliberated upon the issues raised during the Public Hearing /Public Consultation meeting conducted by the Gujarat Pollution Control Board on 28 thFebruary, 2012. The issues raised during public hearing were local employment, solidwaste etc and have satisfactorily been responded by the project proponent andincorporated in the final EIA/EMP report.After detailed deliberations, the Committee found the final EIA/EMP report adequate andsatisfactory and suggested to stipulate following specific conditions alongwith otherenvironmental conditions while considering for accord of environmental clearance:i) The levels of PM 10 , SO 2 , NO X and VOC should be monitored in ambient air.ii) Fugitive emissions in the work zone environment, product, raw materials storagearea etc. should be regularly monitored. The emissions should conform to thelimits imposed by GPCB.iii) Total fresh water requirement from ground water source should not exceed 20m 3 /day and prior permission should be obtained from the CGWA/SGWA.iv) Industrial effluent generation shall not exceed 40 m 3 /day. Effluent (28 m 3 /day)shall be recirculated in the process. Remaining effluent will be treated in effluenttreatment plant and treated water will be recycled/reused within the factorypremises. ‘Zero’ effluent discharge should be adopted and no effluent will bedischarged outside the premises.v) All the solvent storage tanks should be connected with vent condensers withchilled brine circulation.vi) Green belt should be developed in 33 % of the total plant area.vii) Occupational health surveillance of the workers should be done on a regularbasis and records maintained as per the Factories Act.
