3.3 METHODOLOGY
a) Air Sampling
The parameters of concern in the air environment are combustion-derived pollutants
– PM10, SO2, and NOx and there are no process emissions. Hence the existing
Ambient Air Quality status (AAQ) has been monitored for the same. The monitoring
stations have been identified taking into account the pre-dominant wind direction,
population zone and sensitive receptors.
b) Water Sampling
Ground water & surface water such as ponds are the sources of water in the study
area. The drinking water demand is met by groundwater & washing water
requirement is satisfied by surface water in the impact area. Water sampling and
analysis was carried for the identified monitoring stations.

The latitude and longitude of the district are 22 30’ to 23 17’ and 72 30’ to 73 34’
respectively. The district is bounded on the north by Sabarkantha district, on the east
by Panchmahals district, on the west by Ahmedabad district and on the south by
Anand district.
Geographically, the district has a small hilly area only in northern parts of Kapadvanj
and Balasinor taluka. The remaining portion of the district is plain sloping gently from
the North-East towards the South-West.
3.4.1 Micrometeorology
Weather and Climate
The project location is situated at a height of about 21 m above MSL, has a hot
summer and general ambient dryness except during monsoons. Winter is very short
and spans from December to February. June to August is the southwest monsoon
season. The site has varying range of temperatures, from the average maximum of
32 oC in May to average minimum of 12oC in January (Ref: IMD, Ahmedabad
station). The heat during the later part of the summer is intense and day temperature
goes above 43oC. The summary climatic features of the area are presented in Table
3.3.
Average rainfall is 723 mm - over 90% of this falls during the months of June to
August. Only during the monsoon the humidity is high and rest of the year the climate
is comparatively dry. Cloudiness rapidly decreases after the monsoon and the sky is
mostly clear or lightly clouded till May. Moderate windy condition prevails all through
the year with winds ranging from 6.09 to 16.19 km/hr making the area fairly windy.

3.4.3 Air
The terrain being flat, the site is in an extended, unconfined air shed. The surface
wind over Kheda has a fairly clear-cut seasonal character with easterly component
predominating in winters and westerly component in the summers. During May to
September, the winds are from West to Southwest while during November to March,
they are from Northeast to East. April and October are the transition months.
3.4.4 Water
The district has nine rivers of which Mahi and Sabarmati are principal perennial
rivers. The river Mahi is known as Mahisagar. Total length of Mahi River in the district
is about 180km and of Sabarmati River in the district is about 88km. Other rivers of
the district viz. Shedhi, Vatrak, Meshwo and Khari meet Sabarmati River at its left
bank.
The natural drainage is through river Vatrak towards southwest made up of natural
nallas generally flowing from northeast to southwest leading to Gulf of Cambay.
Gulf of Cambay is about 40 kms away on the southwest side of the project site. River
Vatrak is the only major river in the impact area. Multitudes of ponds present in
almost every village in the area are used for domestic purpose such as washing,
bathing, cattle requirements, etc. The source of water for these tanks is seasonal and
so water is available for about six months in a year. From March onwards the tanks
remain almost dry.
The impact area falls under Mahi Right Bank Command (MRBC) Aquifer region
Figure 3.4. In the MRBC area, apart from the shallow aquifer, there are two semi to
fully confined aquifers whose thickness increases from East to West. Groundwater
used to be available in phreatic conditions 100 years back when groundwater was
not exploited for agricultural purposes.
Groundwater conditions in some parts of the canal head areas are water logged for
some parts of the year. But, on the whole, water table is found at 40-80 feet below
ground level. Few wells access this shallow groundwater table and reach out to the
deeper two layers. Most irrigation wells are between 120 ft to 200 ft, with some going
upto 300 ft and 350 ft also.

This area has been amongst the first in the country to adopt tubewell technology has
witnessed high growth in the past five decades. Consequently, conjunctive use of
canal water and groundwater developed in the area to current proportions, when the
previously undivided Kheda district ranked amongst the most agriculturally
prosperous districts of the India.
The surrounding area is densely cultivated. The principal crops grown in Kheda are
the ordinary millets and pulses, rice, wheat, tobacco and a little indigo. Bajri is the
principal crop and the staple grain food. Tobacco is the most valuable crop produced
in the district. It is grown mostly in the Charotar tract. Castor seed and sesame are
the only oilseeds grown in the district. [Source: Annual Employment Report 2006-07, District

Table 3.5 indicates the Kheda District Population Information as per Census 2001.
The district is having dominance of farming occupation. Nearly 60% workers are
engaged in agriculture-either as cultivators (27.4%) or as farm labourers (31.3%). A
distinct observation emerging from the relevant data is that the proportion of females
working as agricultural labourers is larger (38.8%) than that of male (27.1%) workers.
Another notable fact is the relatively larger participation of females in urban areas
(5.4%) in house hold industries compared to male workers (1.9%).
In Kheda district, out of the total 3,69,732 rural families, according to Below Poverty
Line (BPL) census data, 16.41% families are found to be living below poverty line.
Comparatively low poverty ratio in the district is evident from these data. Among the
BPL families in rural areas, 1.30% belongs to scheduled castes, only 0.72% are tribal
families while over 2.82% women are classified as poor according to the BPL census
definition.

The proportion of working population in the total population is 48.1% in the rural
areas and is much lower (31.8%) in the urban areas. Obviously, cultivators,
agricultural laborers and those engaged in animal husbandry account for a
substantial portion of the rural work – force. It is noticed that among the urbanites the
proportion of non – workers is almost double that in the ruralites. The proportion of
nonworkers among urban females is much higher than that in the rural areas.
Services sector in Kheda district appears to have provided employment to nearly 50
thousand persons consisting of 85 per cent percent males and 15 per cent percent
females. Apart from govt. and semi-govt. jobs, private sector has been responsible
for engaging quite a considerable number of persons (17965) of which 16140 are
males and 1825 are females.

Based on the above pollutant generators and type and quantity of fuel used, the
parameters PM, SOx, and NOx were identified as pollutants. The stack details are
presented in Table 4.9.
Impact of a source or group of sources on air quality has been evaluated by using
the mathematical model - Industrial Source Complex Short Term (ISCST3). The
model simulates the concentration of air pollutants emitted from point sources from a
release height on the basis of Gaussian distribution. The important factors
responsible for the nature and degree of emissions are production capacities of
plant, type of fuel, stack height, air pollution control measures, etc.
The model predicts Ground Level Concentrations (GLC) as a function of wind speed,
direction and stability class (Based on solar isolation, wind speed and cloud count).

Table 4.10 presents the maximum predicted GLCs (first highest 24 hrly. average
values) from the project activities during monitoring season. Table 4.11 indicates the
maximum concentration of PM, SOx, and NOx contributed due to the project activities
at various discrete receptors, where ambient air monitoring was carried out.
The maximum contributions of the pollutants from the project activities are observed
to be 0.19825 μg/m3 for PM 1.13287 μg/m3 for SOx, and 0.40710 μg/m3 for NOX
which is very insignificant. The maximum ground level concentration is at about 500
m from the project site towards northwest. The predicted values are not to cause any
significant impact in the existing ambient air quality with respect to PM, SOx, and
NOX.

Risk assessment is a method that has proven its value as an all-round tool for
improving the safety standards prevalent in the hazardous chemical handling
industry. The designs provided by the manufacturers of different equipments have in-
built safety systems but these are not sufficient as amply demonstrated by the
disasters all over the world. The specific safety systems designed to increase the
overall safety actually supplements other safety systems in place such as HAZOP,
Safety Audit, regular incident analysis to identify the potential for such incidents and
to evaluate the necessary control measures.
Risk assessment is a tool that is used to analyse the risk posed by different project
activities vis-à-vis the area. The consequence analysis forms part of this assessment
and helps in evaluation of different hazards that are to be considered for conducting
consequence analysis. The risk assessment basically involves the prediction of the
consequence in case there is a fire, explosion or toxic gas release that might occur
due to handling, storage or processing of any of the hazardous materials by the
industry. The findings of risk assessment are dovetailed into On-site emergency plan
also known as Disaster Management Plan.
Hazard Identification is a tool that is very useful for conducting a risk assessment as
it helps in identification and detailing of hazards that exist in a given plant. The
hazard identification is done prior to the consequence analysis in a given plant and
serves as the core base of information on which whole risk assessment is based.
The basic principle of risk analysis lies in the answer to the questions about risk such
as type, causes, consequences and frequency.

Mass of hydrogenated castor oil, catalyst and methanol is heated in the reactor at 50°C to
55°C. During this process methanol reacts with Hydrogenated castor oil / castor oil
converting it to Hydrogented Methyl Recinoleate / Methyl Recinoleate. The reaction mass is
further heated upto 70° to 75°C during which the un-reacted solvent comes in vapour state.
The solvent vapour is water cooled by passing through condenser. The solvent is recovered
as condensate in the receiver which is then reused in the process.

3. Hazards Identification
Routes of Entry:
Skin Contact: Moderate Eye Contact: Moderate Ingestion: Major Inhalation: Major
Eye Contact: Methanol is a mild to moderate eye irritant. High vapour concentration or liquid
contact with eyes causes irritation, tearing and burning.
Ingestion: Swallowing even small amounts of methanol could potentially cause blindness or
death. Effects of sub lethal doses may be nausea, headache, abdominal pain, vomiting and visual
disturbances ranging from blurred vision to light sensitivity.
Eye Contact: Remove contact lenses if worn. In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with
plenty of clean running water for at least 15 minutes, lifting the upper and lower eyelids
occasionally. Obtain medical attention.
Skin Contact: In case of contact, remove contaminated clothing. In a shower, wash affected
areas with soap and water for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if irritation occurs or
persists. Wash clothing before reuse.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air, restore or assist breathing if necessary. Obtain medical
attention.
available, do not induce vomiting. In actual or suspected cases of ingestion, transport to medical
facility immediately.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Acute exposure to methanol, either through ingestion or breathing high
airborne concentrations can result in symptoms appearing between 40 minutes and 72 hours
after exposure. Symptoms and signs are usually limited to CNS, eyes and gastrointestinal tract.
Because of the initial CNS’s effects of headache, vertigo, lethargy and confusion, there may be
an impression of ethanol intoxication. Blurred vision, decreased acuity and photophobia are
common complaints. Treatment with ipecac or lavage is indicated in any patient presenting within
two hours of ingestion. A profound metabolic acidosis occurs in severe poisoning and serum
bicarbonate levels are a more accurate measure of severity than serum methanol levels.
Treatment protocols are available from most major hospitals and early collaboration with
appropriate hospitals is recommended.
Hazardous Combustion Products: Toxic gases and vapours; oxides of carbon and
formaldehyde.
Extinguishing Media: Small fires: Dry chemical, CO2, water spray
Large fires: Water spray, AFFF(R) (Aqueous Film Forming Foam (alcohol
resistant)) type with either a 3% or 6% foam proportioning system.
Fire Fighting Instructions: Methanol burns with a clean clear flame that is almost invisible in
daylight. Stay upwind! Isolate and restrict area access. Concentrations of greater that 25%
methanol in water can be ignited. Use fine water spray or fog to control fire spread and cool
adjacent structures or containers. Contain fire control water for later disposal. Fire fighters must
wear full face, positive pressure, self-contained breathing apparatus or airline and appropriate
protective clothing. Protective fire fighting structural clothing is not effective protection from
methanol. Do not walk through spilled product.
trained personnel only. Wear adequate personal protection and remove all sources of ignition.
Notify all governmental agencies as required by law.
Personal Protection: Full face, positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus or airline,
and protective clothing must be worn. Protective fire fighting structural clothing is not effective
protection from methanol.
Environmental Precautions: Biodegrades easily in water Methanol in fresh or salt water may
have serious effects on aquatic life. A study on methanol’s toxic efffects on sewage sludge
bacteria reported little effect on digestion at 0.1% while 0.5% methanol retarded digestion.
Methanol will be broken down to carbon dioxide and water.
Remedial Measures: Flammable liquid. Release can cause an immediate fire/explosion hazard.
Eliminate all sources of ignition, stop leak and use absorbent materials. Collect liquid with
explosion proof pumps. Do not walk through spill product as it may be on fire and not visible.
Large Spills: If necessary, contain spill by diking. Fluorocarbon alcohol resistant foams may be
applied to spill to diminish vapour and fire hazard. Maximize methanol recovery for recycling or
reuse. Collect liquid with explosion proof pumps.
Small Spills: Soak up spill with non-combustible absorbent material. Recover methanol and dilute
with water to reduce fire hazard. Prevent spilled methanol from entering sewers, confined spaces,
drains, or waterways. Restict access to unprotected personnel. Full. Put material in suitable,
covered, labeled containers. Flush area with water.
Handling Procedures: No smoking or open flame in storage, use or handling areas. Use
explosion proof electrical equipment. Ensure proper electrical grouding procedures are in place.
Storage: Store in totally enclosed equipment, designed to avoid ignition and human contact.
Tanks must be grounded, vented, and should have vapour emission controls. Tanks must be
diked. Avoid storage with incompatible materials. Anhydrous methanol is non-corrosive to most
metals at ambient temperatures except for lead, nickel, monel, cast iron and high silicon iron.
Coatings of copper (or copper alloys), zinc (including galvanized steel), or aluminum are
unsuitable for storage. These materials may be attacked slowly by the methanol. Storage tanks of
welded construction are normally satisfactory. They should be designed and built in conformance
with good engineering practice for the material being stored. While plastics can be used for short
term storage, they are generally not recommended for long-term storage due to deterioration
effects and the subsequent risk of contamination.
Engineering Controls: In confined areas, local and general ventilation should be provided to
maintain airborne concentrations beloew permissable exposure limits. Ventilation systems must
be designed according to approved engineering standards.
Respiratory Protection: NIOSH approved supplied air respirator when airborne concentrations
exceed exposure limits.
Skin protection: Butyl and nitrile rubbers are recommended for gloves. Check with
manufacturer. Wear chemical resistant pants and jackets, preferably of butyl or nitrile rubber.
Check with manufacturer.
Eye and Face Protection: Face shield and chemical splash goggles when transferring is taking
place.
Footwear: Chemical resistant, and as specified by the workplace.
Other: Eyewash and showers should be located near work areas. NOTE: PPE must not be
considered a long-term solution to exposure control. PPE usage must be accompanied by
employer programs to properly select, maintain, clean, fit and use. Consult a competent industrial
hygiene resource to determine hazard potential and/or the PPE manufacturers to ensure
aadequate protection.
