Executive Summary:
This notification amends the Environment Protection Rules of 1986, specifically concerning environmental standards for the Man-Made Fibre Industry. It was published in the Gazette of India on November 9, 2018, following consideration of objections and suggestions to draft rules published earlier. The amendments include changes to effluent and emission standards, wastewater generation standards, and load/mass-based standards for the industry.
Key Points / Main Content:
* **Amendments to Environment Protection Rules, 1986:**
* These rules are called the Environment Protection Fifth Amendment Rules, 2018.
* The amendments are effective from the date of publication in the Official Gazette.
* **Effluent Standards for Man-Made Fibre Industry (Schedule I):**
* Specifies concentration limits (mg/l, except pH) for effluent discharge into inland surface water, land for irrigation, and marine discharge.
* pH: 6.0-8.5 for all discharge types.
* Suspended Solids: 100 mg/l for all discharge types.
* Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD): Limits set at 30 mg/l for inland surface water, 100 mg/l for land irrigation and marine discharge.
* Zinc limits at 5 mg/l inland, 5 mg/l for land irrigation, and 15 mg/l for marine discharge
* Sodium Sulphate recovery shall not be less than 60% in Viscose Staple Fibre and Viscose Filament Yarn units.
* **Emission Standards for Man-Made Fibre Industry (Schedule I):**
* Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs): Concentration not to exceed 50 mg/Nm3, applicable to Acrylic fiber units only.
* Carbon Disulphide (CS2) and Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S): The concentration in the work environment shall not exceed 10 ppm individually.
* Stack Height Calculation: Formula provided for calculating stack height based on emission rate, stack exit velocity, stack diameter, and wind speed (H = 11 Q 0.413 VsDU).
* For new plants built after December 31, 1998: A minimum of 80% of total emissions shall pass through stacks. If the calculated stack height is less than 30 metres, a minimum height of 30 metres must be provided.
* The height of all stacks shall be based on the maximum emission rate in any of the stacks.
* Number of stacks shall not be increased as existing on 31st December, 1998
* The distance between two nearest stacks should be at least three times of height of taller stack
* Industry to install three air quality monitoring stations on the periphery within boundary limits. Levels of CS2 and H2S 24 hours daily average shall not exceed 100 ugm3 and 150ugm3 respectively.
* **Wastewater Generation Standards (Schedule VI, Part B):**
* Specifies wastewater volume per tonne of fiber for various processes:
* Viscose Staple Fibre (VSF) Plant: 75 m3/tonne of fiber
* Viscose Filament Yarn (VFY) Plant: 150 m3/tonne of fiber
* Nylon Polyester: 10 m3/tonne of fiber
* Acrylic (Wet Process): 25 m3/tonne of fiber
* Acrylic (Dry Process): 10 m3/tonne of fiber
* **Load/Mass Based Standards (Schedule VI, Part D.III):**
* Specifies emission standards (kg/tonne) for:
* Viscose Staple Fibre (VSF) Plant: Carbon Disulphide: 95 kg/tonne of VSF, Hydrogen Sulphide: 30 kg/tonne of VSF
* Viscose Filament Yarn (VFY) Plant: Carbon Disulphide: 200 kg/tonne of VFY, Hydrogen Sulphide: 30 kg/tonne of VFY
* Rayon, Polyester and Nylon Dipping process plant Fabric: Ammonia: 0.3 kg/tonne of dipped fabric.
Impact Analysis:
Man-Made Fibre Industry:
* Impact: Must comply with revised effluent, emission, and wastewater generation standards.
* Action Required: Review and adjust manufacturing processes, install necessary monitoring equipment (air quality monitoring stations), and ensure compliance with the new standards.
State Pollution Control Boards:
* Impact: Responsible for ensuring the Man-Made Fibre Industry adheres to the amended standards.
* Action Required: Enforce the updated regulations, oversee the installation of air quality monitoring stations, and ensure compliance with emission and effluent standards, in consultation with industries for location of monitoring stations.
Central Government (Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change):
* Impact: Responsible for overseeing the implementation and effectiveness of the amended rules.
* Action Required: Monitor compliance, review the effectiveness of the amendments, and make further adjustments as needed.
