Executive Summary:
This notification proposes amendments to the Environment Protection Rules, 1986, specifically concerning emission standards for iron and steel plants. It includes modifications to Schedule I, outlining new parameters and standards for various processes within the industry. Key deadlines include compliance with PM emission limits within three years for existing units and compliance with effluent SS limits within one year for existing units.
Key Points / Main Content:
Emission Standards for Iron and Steel Plants:
* Revises Schedule I of the Environment Protection Rules, 1986, by substituting serial number 24 and related entries.
* Introduces specific standards for particulate matter (PM), SO2, and NOx emissions from coke oven batteries, sintering and pelletizing plants, blast furnaces, basic oxygen furnaces, rolling mills, lime/dolomite kilns, refractory units, and sponge iron plants.
Coke Oven Emission Standards:
* Sets PM limit at 50 mg/Nm3, SO2 at 500 mg/Nm3, and NOx at 500 mg/Nm3 for coke oven battery emissions.
* Specifies leakage percentages for doors, charging lids, and AP covers in both recovery and non-recovery type coke ovens.
* Defines charging emission duration for recovery and non-recovery coke ovens.
* Sets limits for BenzoaPyrene emissions at the top (5 gm3) and other areas (2 gm3) of the coke oven battery.
Other Emission Standards:
* Sets emission limits for Sintering and Pelletizing Plants, Blast Furnaces, Basic Oxygen Furnaces, Rolling Mills, Lime kilns, Dolomite kilns, Refractory units and Sponge Iron Plants.
Effluent Standards:
* Establishes effluent standards, including pH between 6.0 and 8.5, BOD limit of 30 mg/l, COD limit of 250 mg/l, and suspended solids (SS) limit of 50 mg/l.
* Specifies limits for oil and grease (10 mg/l), ammoniacal nitrogen (50 mg/l), phenol (1 mg/l), and cyanide (0.2 mg/l).
Additional Rules and Notes:
* Specifies stack height requirements based on SO2 emission rates.
* Existing units must comply with PM emission limits within three years; until then, previous limits apply.
* Existing units must comply with SS limits within one year; until then, previous limits apply.
* Requires reuse of effluent within the plant after necessary pretreatment.
* Mandates waste heat boilers for new coal-based sponge iron plants and requires SPCBs/PCCs to prepare policies for existing plants.
* Requires new coal-based sponge iron plants to have boilers for dolochar utilization and requires SPCBs to create policies for existing plants.
* Specifies that standards at S. No. 111, 108 and 110 shall apply for standalone Rolling Mill Reheating Furnaces, Foundries Cupola, Arc and Inductions Furnaces, and Lime Kilns of small scale sector
Deletion of Entry:
* Deletes the entry at serial number 99 for Sponge Iron Plant Rotary Kiln in Schedule I, Rule 3 of the Environment Protection Rules, 1986.
Impact Analysis:
Iron and Steel Plants:
* Impact: Required to meet revised emission and effluent standards for various processes.
* Action Required: Implement necessary technological upgrades and process modifications to comply with the new limits within the specified timeframes.
State Pollution Control Boards (SPCBs) / Pollution Control Committees (PCCs):
* Impact: Responsible for ensuring compliance with the new standards and developing policies for waste heat recovery and dolochar utilization in existing sponge iron plants.
* Action Required: Prepare and implement policies for waste heat recovery boiler implementation and dolochar utilization in existing sponge iron plants.
Central Government:
* Impact: Oversees the implementation and enforcement of the amended Environment Protection Rules.
* Action Required: Consider objections and suggestions from the public regarding the draft notification.
General Public:
* Impact: Benefits from improved environmental quality due to stricter emission standards.
* Action Required: Submit objections or suggestions on the draft notification to the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change within sixty days of the notification's publication.
