The proposed pollution control measures envisaged in project area for fugitive

dust, noise pollution and other environmental effects of each project activities will

be assessed ;

The present and proposed changes in land use pattern will be identified; and

Suitable green belt development plan will be prepared.

Based on various project activities, the likely impact on the environment attributes

in project area will be identified by:

Estimating the air pollution levels for SPM, SO2 and NOx in the study area

Estimating the source emissions for each project specific pollutants;

Predicting the noise dispersions for all the noise generating sources;

Predicting the impact of wastewater discharges, if any;

Studying the short-term and long-term effects on sensitive targets like

endangered species, crops and historically/archaeologically important sites (if

any).

likely to be affected are air quality, water quality, soil quality and noise levels etc on

account of gaseous emissions, liquid effluent discharges, resultant particulates,

generation of solid wastes etc will be discussed.

The baseline data generated from the above studies will be analyzed and

compared with applicable standards prescribed by the CPCB. By this means, the

impact whether positive or negative will be assessed and the environmental

attributes requiring special attention for mitigating the negative impact, if any, will

be identified. Also the areas, which fulfil the prescribed environmental norms and

not requiring further improvements, will be specified. Both short-term and long term

impacts particularly on sensitive targets such as habitat of endangered species of

wildlife or mines, crops, historically/culturally important sites/monuments, centres

with concentrated population in the study area will be established. Impact of the

fugitive emissions on terrestrial flora will be scientifically documented based upon

species composition of the area and their air pollution tolerance levels.

presented for short-term (24-hourly) concentrations in and around the project site.

The dispersion model results will be included in the report using isopleths or other

graphical methods, over laying a land use map of the surrounding area. The

predicted air quality results will be compared with existing regulations.

predicted using Noise model. A comparison of measured noise (Leq) at

monitoring locations to that of predicted noise levels (Leq) will be made and


of 51

mitigatory measures will be recommended to conform to regulatory ambient air

noise standards.

Baseline noise levels in different zones like industrial, residential and silence areas

like hospitals, schools etc will be monitored. The potential noise level exposure will

be determined and evaluate for acceptable limits of exposure.

Mitigation Measures

The potential mitigation measures will be addressed to reduce noise levels by control

at source, isolation of high noise generating sources, use of protective measures

especially in high noise areas and development of green belt .

4.4 Impact on Ecology

Impacts on aquatic species especially during dry season will be assessed particularly

those which are endangered, if any. The parameters, which are of concern, are TSS,

TDS, heavy metals, oil and grease, pH and temperature. The assessment will also

include impacts of chlorinated organic chemicals. The impact of site preparation

activities involving site clearing, excavation, earth moving, dewatering or impounding

water bodies and developing burrow and fill areas will be assessed.

future water requirements for various purposes. The measures also address the


of 51

need to maintain or improve the existing Class of Water (as per IS: 2296) to ensure

that the current/proposed uses are not impaired due to deterioration of the water

quality.

Annexure - 8 Cement Plant - Process Description Cement manufacturing principally involves grinding and blending of raw materials in a

definite proportion - a material containing calcium oxide (such as limestone, chalk, marl) with

a siliceous material (such as clay, shale, sand) along with certain additive or corrective

materials (such as laterite) and then calcining the mixture at high temperatures in a kiln. The

resulting ‘clinker’ is cooled and then ground with gypsum to produce the finished product,

Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC). Gypsum is added to control the setting time of cement.

Portland Pozzolona Cement (PPC) is manufactured by adding approximately 30% fly ash to

clinker and gypsum during the grinding operation.

Dry process of cement manufacturing offers more advantages, particularly in fuel

consumption and is the most rational and logical choice. In the proposed plant, dry process

has been selected to manufacture clinker, which comprises of rotary kiln, preheater and

precalciner. The process flow sheet is presented in Figure given below:

Process Details – Captive Power Plant Captive Power Plant (CPP) Project As a part of this proposal, a coal based, thermal power plant of 75 MW capacity, which will

be located in the premises of Cement Plant is considered in the project. The production

facilities for following operations are considered in the scope of the CPP.

Fuel preparation

Boiler and Turbines

Flyash / bed ash collection, handling and storage

Fuel Preparation Coal is considered as fuel for thermal power plant. Raw coal is received by Wagons and

unloaded by Wagon tippler installed in Cement plant. It will be crushed and then conveyed

to the Coal stockpile area earmarked for CPP. Mechanised systems such as stacker

reclaimers will be considered for coal stacking and reclaiming. The Raw coal from stockpile

is conveyed to a secondary crushing plant (closed circuit crusher with a vibrating screen).

The required size of coal from the crusher plant will be conveyed to the coal hoppers in

thermal power plant for firing into the boilers. The boilers will also be designed to suit feeding

biomass/agriculture waste in a controlled way in future.

Boilers and Turbine Fluidized bed boilers are considered for generation of steam in the power plant. The fuel for

these boilers will be crushed and sized. The boiler will be provided with Electro Static

Precipitators for collection of dry flyash and to control the emissions levels below prescribed

limits. Steam turbine sets will be used for generation of electricity.

Air Cooled Condenser An efficient Air Cooled Condenser will be considered for cooling the water for recirculation in turbines.

Flyash Handling Plant Dry fly ash will be collected from ESP which will be conveyed through dense phase

pneumatic conveyor to the flyash silos. From silos, it will be conveyed through a pneumatic /

mechanical conveyor to the flyash silo in cement plant. The flyash generated will be used for

production of PPC. Provision will also be made below flyash silos for loading into bulkers.

Bed ash – The bed ash will be collected in the bottom of fluidized bed. The same will be

used in cement manufacturing & also disposed off for mine pit filling / leveling low lying

areas/construction of ramp roads etc.
