3.0 Identification of Sources of Pollution
a. Data Generation:
Identifying the sources of pollution of air, water, land and noise;
Quantifying the emissions from the pollution generating sources; and
Quantification of solid wastes and likely disposal methods will be suggested;
b. Sources of Pollution
The likely sources of air and water pollution will be identified and quantified;
Form -1 of proposed Greenfield integrated cement plant of 3.6 MTPA Clinker, 5.5 MTPA Cement, 75 MW CPP with 5.0 MTPA Limestone Mine
Page 42 of 51
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).
4.0. Environmental Impact Assessment The proposed project will have an impact on the environment. The parameters
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.
Mitigation Measures
Potential mitigation measures include the control measures at the source level. The
measures to control the fugitive dust emissions will also be suggested according to
guidelines of CPCB .
4.3 Impact on Noise
Impact Assessment: Sources of noise and its impact on the environment will be
addressed. The noise level at varying distances for multi-sources will be
predicted using Noise model. A comparison of measured noise (Leq) at
monitoring locations to that of predicted noise levels (Leq) will be made and

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.
Recommendations will be made to mitigate such adverse impacts as soil erosion and
habitat loss. In addition, impact of fugitive emissions will be assessed on the
surrounding species of economic/genetic/biological importance.
4.5 Impact on Water Use
Impact Assessment
The impacts of the proposed project due to water usage and wastewater discharges
will be addressed covering the following:
Groundwater quality degradation due to likely solid waste disposal and sewage
disposal;
Agricultural productivity;
Habitat conditions; and
Recreation resources and aesthetics.
Mitigation Measures
The mitigation measures will be addressed ensuring the present and anticipated
future water requirements for various purposes. The measures also address the

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.
