arrangement to store lime in the plant to neutralized
leaked acid from dyke wall if any.
In the event of leakage from pipline, main valve
will be closed immediately.
There is first aid at the site and a person will
immediately contact to fire brigade, police station,
hospital and fire fighting units in case of
emergency.
At each point where sulphuric acid is handled,
there is safety showers and eye wash stations
installed.
Warm water is also provided for a minimum of 15
minutes at the showers with a high enough volume
to drench the user.
Stations are equipped with an automatic alarm
system designed to summon help from adjacent
areas.
The safe handling of sulphuric acid from tanks,
trucks and tank cars by the application of air
pressure or by gravity requires careful attention to
proper procedures and is conducted by trained
personnel wearing proper protective clothing.
Smoking or other sources of ignition is not

In Existing unit: total domestic waste water
generation is (8KLD) thus after expansion he waste
water generation will remain same 8.0 KLD. Domestic
waste water is being treated in the well designed
sewage treated water for plantation/watering.
Industrial waste water
During operation phase the unit is not generating any
process waste water.
Thus the unit is maintaining zero water discharge.
7.3 By deposition of pollutants
emitted to air into the land
or into water
No The flue gas emitted from various sources routed
(after proper treatment equipments) through stack into
the atmosphere for proper dispersion. At any point of
time the emissions will not be higher than the
prescribed limit.
In SSP and GSSP plant to control the flue gas
emission cyclone, bag filters, ventury wet scrubber,
scrubbing tower (4 stages) has been installed and same
will be maintained in operation in good working
condition. The height of the stack is sufficient to avoid
any down wash and it disperses the pollutant
effectively. One D. G. set installed in the existing unit
has acoustic enclosure type with adequate stack height
(5 m).
Hazardous waste such as sludge generated from wet
scrubber and used oil is and will be generated from the
process which is reused in the process.

Now as per the increasing market demand, the unit is proposing amendment in the
Existing EC already granted by MOEF&CC.
2.3 NEED FOR THE PROJECT AND ITS IMPORTANCE TO THE
COUNTRY AND OR REGION
Being an agro based economy, India the third largest fertilizer consumer and producer
of the world. It has been observed that the subsidies on Indian fertilizer have been
rising at constant rate, due to the rise in the cost of production and the inability of the
government to raise the maximum retail price of the fertilizers. The population of the
country is increasing at 1.5% annually. This requires higher production of food grains.
The total cropped area is only 30% of the net geographical area, which is not enough
for increasing the agricultural productivity. Hence, the main focus shifts on the
improvement of the farm income, for which the fertilizer industry needs to lay more
stress on the agricultural activities in the country. This will also help to improve terms
between the government agencies and the fertilizer industry in India.
Phosphorus is one among the most important nutrients for plant growth along with
nitrogen and potash. The most important ore of phosphorus is rock phosphate which is
a complex phosphate of calcium. Manufacture of synthetic phosphatic fertilisers (such
as triple superphosphate, ammonium phosphate, etc.) demands production of
elemental phosphorus or phos-phoric acid from phosphate rock, which, by itself, is an
energy—intensive process. Biochemical conversion of phosphate rock into soluble
phosphates that are directly assimilated by plants becomes attractive in this respect.
Biofertiliser which is thus produced is named as PROM (Phosphate Rich Organic
Manure) since it is synthesized by blending finely ground phosphate rock with
organic manure. The most recommended sources of organic manure in this connection
(and those which are employed in the present study) are Vermicompost (the residue
left behind after composting plant wastes /animal wastes using earth worms) and the
sludge discarded from units that manufacture biogas by the anaerobic digestion of
PROJECT: Rama Phosphates Ltd., Udaipur Section II/ Introduction of the Project
Gaurang Environmental Solutions
16
animal wastes (cow dung, night soil, poultry litter, piggery waste) or plant wastes
(garden debris, agriculture residues, water hyacinth) or municipal/cellulosic wastes.
Anaerobic digester sludge (ADS) has the additional ad-vantage that it is a byproduct
and does not have separate manufacturing cost.
PROM can thus act as a viable substitute to otherwise expensive synthetic phosphatic
fertilizers. Though PROM has completed many successful field trials commercial
production and utilization of PROM is not still upto the mark.
2.4 DEMAND – SUPPLY GAP
There has been a surge in the demand for fertilizers in the past few years; however,
the robust growth in consumption propensity has not been met with the required surge
in fertilizer production.
The challenges before the Indian fertilizer industry relate to the incertitude in the
supply of fertilizers. This has widened the gap between the demand and supply of
fertilizers in the country, which has led to an increase in the dependence of the
country on imports. This also reflects on the lack of realizing of the domestic capacity
utilization of the reserves in the country.
Increase in Fertilizer Supply:
1951-52: .04 MT
1975-76: 1.8 MT
2005-06: 15.5 MT

These periods also witnessed a rapid increase in food grain production, which was
estimated to be initially 121 million tons from 52 million tons and finally increased to
208 tons.
The production capacity augmentation aims to contribute though minorly in the gains
in gross domestic product and fulfill the regional supply gap.
2.5 IMPORTS V/S INDIGENOUS PRODUCTION
The proposed project is a captive industry and all the machineries, tools and
implements will be indigenously purchased and installed. There is sufficient
availability of raw material (mainly Rock phosphate) in International market so raw
material can be sourced from overseas market (like Jordan, Egypt) in case of
unavailability. The domestic production of it has been catering to the domestic market
only.
The fertilizer industry is remained protected under the umbrella of the Retention
pricing Scheme (RPS) of the Indian government, and has been unable to reduce the
government's burden of subsidizing the rates. Single Super Phosphate (SSP) was
brought under the gambit of RPS in 1982. To retrieve the health and growth of the
fertilizer industry, the government of India has drafted long term realistic policies that
would enable the industry to overcome the challenges and increase productivity.
2.6 EXPORT POSSIBILITY
The proposed project is not prospecting exports.
2.7 DOMESTIC/EXPORT MARKETS
According to the International Fertilizer Industry Association (IFA), World fertilizer
production and sales have risen strongly in 2010, up 13% from 7% in 2009.
As per the, International Fertilizer Industry Association (IFA) consumption is
forecasted to grow a further 3.8% in 2011/12. However, despite the current positive
signals in the market, IFA also warned of rising agricultural commodity and food
PROJECT: Rama Phosphates Ltd., Udaipur Section II/ Introduction of the Project
Gaurang Environmental Solutions
18
prices and a possible repeat of the food crisis of 2007/08. Fertilizer consumption in
India vis-à-vis neighboring countries, during 2001-02 is as follows:
China – 225.1 Kg/ha
Bangladesh – 159.7 Kg/ha
Sri Lanka – 122.7 Kg/ha
Pakistan – 131.9 Kg/ha
India – 91.5 Kg/ha
World – 89.9 Kg/ha
India is the third largest fertilizer producer in the world. Fertilizer is a crucial input
contributing to about 40% of the productivity of the crop. The proposed project aims
to cater to the local market in the region of Udaipur.
2.8 EMPLOYMENT GENERATION (DIRECT AND INDIRECT) DUE
TO THE PROJECT
Direct Employment

Total Employment after addition of
products
84
Indirect Employment
Transportation and warehousing in the region would eventually be needed therefore
truckers and jobs in logistical activities will come up.
The fertilizer available will provide agency employment in the value chain analysis,
which will add place utility and retail in the domestic market.
The end use of the fertilizer will add to an additional rise (though minorly) in food
production and contribute gains in national employment and in the gross domestic
product.

The employment through transportation, warehousing, loading and unloading of
material and activities will provide indirect agency employment.
Development of Ancillary industries
There would be Development of ancillary industries or opportunities for example
Small petty businesses
This would create Indigenous Technologies for sustainable development.
No additional manpower is required for the proposed amendment.

Product Process Details (proposed amendment):
1. Manufacturing Process of Sodium Silico Fluoride (SSF)
SSF is the by-product formed during the production of SSP. The production facilities are
installed in most of the SSP plant mainly to convert the liquid effluent (H2SiF6) in to a
salable by-product. Hence it is primarily a pollution control process to treat the liquid
effluent.
The gaseous effluent generated in the single super phosphate plant is absorbed in the
scrubber section using water to convert into Hydro FluroSilico Acid. This acid is pumped out
from the settling tank of the venturi and received at Sodium Silico Floride plant.
The production facilities are installed in most of the SSP plants mainly to convert the liquid
effluent (H2SiF6) into a saleable by-product. Hence it is primarily a pollution control process
to to treat the liquid effluent.
Hence the acidic fluorosilicate acid is reacted with Sodium sulphate solution to neutralize it
to generate Sodium Silico Fluoride crystals and dilute sulphuric acid.
H2SiF6 (I) + Na2SO4 Na2 SiF6 + Dil. H2SO4
Fluorosilico acid is received in PP FRP reactor. This reactor is calibrated one and fitted with
PROJECT: Rama Phosphates Ltd., Udaipur Section III/ Project Description
Gaurang Environmental Solutions 31
an agitator. Two such reactors are installed in a row. While one is under reaction process the
other is made ready for next batch. Separately in a Sodium Sulphate solution preparation tank
Sodium Sulphate is dissolved in fresh water and the concentration is analyzed. Metered
quantity of Sodium Sulphate solution is slowly added into the reactor while the liquor is
under agitation. The acid is neutralized by the alkaline Sodium Sulphate solution and Sodium
silico fluoride crystals separate from the solution. The pH of the reaction mass is checked and
when the pH reaches 7, sodium Sulphate addition is stopped. After thorough agitation the
solution is allowed to settle. The clear top solution (dilute acid) is decanted and the settled
mass is taken to a centrifuge to separate water from the SSF crystal.
The wet mass is dried in a tray dryer and finally packed in 50 kg bag after quality analysis
and approval. The collected water from centrifuge and reactors is stored and used in SSP
plant.
Specification of Sodium Silico Fluoride:
1 Technical grade White crystalline powder
2 Purity (on dry basis) min. % 98.00 %
3 Moisture (max. %) 1.00
4 Insoluble (max. %) 1.00
2. Manufacturing Process of PROM
For making PROM sufficient for one ha area 200 kg high grade rock phosphate (containing
about 30% P2O5) is mixed with 5 ton of cow dung and crop residue mixture. For enhancing
the microbial activity 1 kg of Azotobacter, 1 kg of Phosphate Solubilizing Bacteria (PSB)
and 0.5 kg of Decomposing culture is also added to the mixture as slurry. The mixture is
allowed to decompose for 90 days in a pit. After 90 days, approximately 3.0 tons of mature
PROM is harvested, comprising about 30 kg N and 60 kg P2O5. This entire quantity of
PROM is broadcast spread in the field followed by ploughing with tractor 15 days prior to
sowing. A parallel control plot is maintained at each demonstration site having an area of
0.25 ha. The control plot is treated with either 150 kg DAP or 400 kg SSP + 60 kg urea/ha
for comparison. Post sowing treatments ar similar in control as well PROM treated field.

3.7 RESOURCE OPTIMIZATION /RECYCLING AND REUSE
ENVISAGED IN THE PROJECT, IF ANY, SHOULD BE BRIEFLY
OUTLINED
SSF: The industry is working hard to optimize the resources. The production facilities of
SSF are installed in most of the SSP plant mainly to convert the liquid effluent (H2SiF6)
in to a salable by-product. Hence it is primarily a pollution control process to treat the
liquid effluent.
PROM: Production of PROM is much more cost-effective than that of synthetic
phosphatic fertilisers such as SSP, MAP; DAP since the entire manufacturing cost of
phos-phoric acid or elemental phosphorus from phosphate rock is eliminated. The starting
material remains the same as raw phosphate rock ore. Though the process is relatively
slow, it does not demand any high temperature or high pressure. No chemical catalyst is
required and there is no consumption of any valuable chemicals such as sulfuric acid.
The unit is also recycling the industrial process water to reduce the demand of daily fresh
water and same will be practiced after proposed amendment.

As per the EIA notification dated 14th
September, 2006 and subsequently amendment on
dated 01.12.2009, and 4.4.2011, it is mandatory for the proposed modernization activity
to get Environmental Clearance before setting up or expansion/modernization.
Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is a well planned process to predict the
environmental consequences of any kind of development, which is result of human
activities and to suggest appropriate measures in order to reduce adverse effects and also
to augment positive effects. The EIA procures a rational and ethical approach for
sustainable development. However, it is more scientific process because it not only tells
the past, present and the future consequences of going on development , but also predicts
the future events which likely to change due to some reasons.

PLANNING BRIEF
5.1 PLANNING CONCEPT (TYPE OF INDUSTRIES, FACILITIES,
TRANSPORTATION ETC) TOWN AND COUNTRY
PLANNING/DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY CLASSIFICATION
PROM (Phosphate Rich Organic Manure) can act as a viable substitute to otherwise
expensive synthetic phosphatic fertilisers. Manufacture of synthetic phosphatic
fertilisers (such as triple superphosphate, ammonium phosphate, etc.) demands
production of elemental phosphorus or phosphoric acid from phosphate rock, which,
by itself, is an energy—intensive process. Biochemical conversion of phosphate rock
into soluble phosphates that are directly assimilated by plants becomes attractive in
this respect. Biofertiliser which is thus produced is named as PR- OM (Phosphate
Rich Organic Manure) since it is synthesized by blending finely ground phosphate
rock with organic manure. PROM is equally (if not, more) effective in agriculture as
compared to synthetic fertilizers.
The demand for the fertilizer due to the expanding agricultural production,
improvement in technology and growing awareness among farmers has led to, the
increased consumption of agrochemicals. Fertilizer is a key ingredient in ensuring the
food security of the country, as it increases the production and productivity of the soil.
The domestic food grain production target has been set at 320 million tonnes by 2011-
2012 in India. This target can be achieved by higher productivity through improved
farming practices, expansion of irrigation, better seeds and extensive and balanced use
of fertilizers. A definite growth in the fertilizer industry in India is required. In view
of this and seeing bright future of fertilizer industry in country the management has
decided to increase the production in the existing unit of fertilizers.
5.2 POPULATION PROJECTION
As per Census survey of India the decadal growth rate of population in 1981-91 has
been 24.52% and in 1991-2001 the growth rate increased at 27.37% in Udaipur
district. Hence, taking a projection for 2010-11 the estimated increase in the growth
rate of the population in study area is as follows:
