  1. Environmental Issues in Secondary Lead Smelting Sector Ruby Sinha & Q.Q.Hassan Environmental Engineer West Bengal Pollution Control Board Paribesh Bhawan, Sec.-III, Bidhan Nagar, Kolkata- 700098 Website : www.wbpcb.gov.in

  2. Environment Protection Agencies in India Ministry of Environment & Forests, GoI Department of Environment GoWB Central Pollution Control Board West Bengal Pollution Control Board West Bengal Pollution Control Board, a statutory body, was constituted in 1974 as per the provisions of the Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act

  3. Environmental Legislations in India • Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974 • Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Cess Act, 1977 • Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981 (amended in 1987) • Environment (Protection) Act, 1986 (amended in 1991) • Public Liability Insurance Act, 1991 (amended 1992)

  4. Environmental Legislations in India • Hazardous Wastes (Management, Handling and Transboundary Movement ) Rules, 2008 (amended in 2010) • Manufacture, Storage and Import of Hazardous Chemicals Rules, 1989 (amended in 2000) • Biomedical Wastes (Management and Handling) Rules, 1998 (amended in 2000 ) • Plastic Wastes (Management and Handling) Amendment Rules, 2011 • Municipal Solid Wastes (Management and Handling) Rules, 2000 • Noise Pollution (Regulation and Control) Rules, 2000 (as amended ) • Ozone Depleting Substances (Regulation and Control) Rules, 2000 • Batteries (Management and Handling) Rules, 2001 • E-Waste (Management & Handling) Rules,2011

  5. Implementation of Environmental Legislation by WBPCB Issuance of Permit Surveillance Creating Awareness

  6. Categorisation of industries Depending upon the pollution potential, WBPCBclassified the industriesinto three different categories: “ RED” category: i) Special Red& ii) Ordinary Red “ ORANGE” category “ GREEN” category A few activities with no pollution potential are classified as “ Exempted“ Category.

  7. Industrial Siting policy in West Bengal To combat the industrial pollution in West Bengal, Board has formulated Industrial Siting Policy in Dec,1997 which has been amended time to time looking at the trend of environment scenario in the State. Salient Feature of Industrial Siting policy : Industries under “RED” category are not permitted to set up in Municipal Areas falling under KMA.‏ These units cam be permitted in Panchayet areas with adequate pollution abatement systems.

  8. Salient Feature of Industrial Siting policy Industriesunder “ORANGE” category can be permitted in Municipal area except KMC & HMC areas or within industrial estates in case of KMC and HMC area with adequate pollution control measures subject to the condition that the site clearance should be obtained from municipal authorities. Industries under Green Category can be permitted in any area in the state subject to site clearance by the local body. Exempted category – need not apply for CFE and CFO

  9. Regulatory Compliances to be achieved for Setting up and Operating an Industry • Permits Required: • (i) Environment Clearance from MoEF, GoI and SEIAA,GoWB (as applicable for some specific categories of industries ) • As per the EIA Notification 2006 few projects and activities requires prior EC from the competent authority for new, expansion or modernization projects. • Those activities are broadly categorised under two categories – Cat. A and Cat. B, based on their potential environmental impacts. • Clearance for Cat. A projects is accorded by MoEF, GoIand for Cat. B projects by SEIAA,GoWB. • (iii) Consent to Operate from WBPCB • for operating any industrial unit • (to be renewed periodically)

  10.

  23. Secondary Lead Smelting Units in West Bengal In West Bengal, the secondary lead smelting units are mostly unorganized sector. A number of such units are operating in Kankurgachi and Picnic Garden areas in Kolkata, Sankrail and Domjur in Howrah. Few smelting units have also come up in the North 24 Pgs, Hooghly and Medinipur (E).

  24. Secondary Lead Smelting Process Lead Smelting is a thermal metallurgical process in which lead is separated in fused form from the non-metallic materials or or other undesired metals with which it is associated. The lead bearing wastes alongwith flux and reducing agents are smelted in furnace, molten metal is tapped and made into ingots. The slag is recycled for approx. 2-3 times for extraction of lead. Residual slag is disposed of as hazardous waste.

  25. Pollution generated from Secondary Lead Smelting Units Air Pollution Flue gas containing particulate matter and lead in particulate, fugitive emission Water Pollution Waste water from the scrubber (APC Device), Unused dilute acid in battery Hazardous Waste Lead bearing slag, dust from APC Device, sludge from scrubber etc.

  26. Pollution Control Measures Air Pollution Control : Cyclone Separator/ Gravity Settling Chamber, Bag filter, Scrubber Water Pollution Control : Scrubbing liquid to be reused after settling. Residual acid from battery to be collected properly and neutralized before discharge.

  27. Standards to be maintained Emission Standard :

  28. Pollution Control Measures Hazardous waste : On-site storage in earmarked area with shed and impervious lining Disposal to common TSDF for Hazardous Waste

  29. Hazardous Waste as defined in the Rules Any waste which by reason of any of its physical, chemical, reactive, toxic, flammable, explosive or corrosive characteristics causes danger or is likely to cause danger to health or environment, whether alone or when in contact with other wastes or substances, and shall include wastes listed in Schedules I, II & III of the Rules

  30. Is a waste Hazardous or not ?? Waste is hazardous if it is listed in Schedule I Or, if it falls in Schedule II(analysis required) For the purpose of regulation of Import & Export, a waste is considered as hazardous if it is listed in Schedule-III
