Filed At: AHP Maintenance

The purpose of the Procedure for Handling Hazardous Wastes is to guide

operating personnel for proper handling and management of hazardous

waste generated at ITPS.

RESPONSIBILITY

In Charge, Environment Cell is responsible for implementation of this

procedure so as to ensure safe and efficient operation of the system.

Presently ITPS is handling the following hazardous wastes

a. Used lubricants (Oil & Grease)

b. Used Batteries

c. Waste Resin

Lubricants are used in boiler & turbine auxiliary equipments, Ash Handling

& Ash Recycling Plant equipments, Coal Handling Plant equipments, Water

Treatment Plant equipments, Workshop equipments, MGR equipments etc.

for various lubrication purposes.

Handling Hazardous Wastes 1

Batteries are used for UPS system located at Unit I/II Battery Room,

Switchyard Battery Room, CHP Battery Room, MGR Battery Room and

Automobiles of Auto Base Garage.

Resin is used in Ion Exchange process of Water Treatment Plant.

AS per annual budget, lubricants (Oil & Grease), Batteries and Resin are

procured by Warehouse and kept at designated place. Hazardous wastes

generated from various areas are handled as follows.

USED LUBRICANTS

As and when required by User Department, lubricants are issued from

Warehouse to the user department through ERP system. The inventory issue

details are maintained by Maintenance Planning Department (MTP). The

lubricants (oil & grease) received by user department are stored in the

designated shed for storing fresh lubricants as per capacity of the shed. Such

storage sheds are located in main plant area (in front of ESP control room 1

facing towards WTP), Ash Handling Plant area (in front of Ash Handling

Control Room), Workshop, CHP (near maintenance building), MGR

workshop (near car shed), Turbine area (near dirty oil tank). Detailed

locations are shown in Plot Plan enclosed.

After overhauling /servicing of any equipment, the used lubricants so

generated are collected in empty barrels. Each barrel capacity is

approximately 200 liters. The barrels containing used lubricants are kept in

respective transit lubricant storage shed in the area demarcated for storage of

used oil. During normal running of the equipment user department utilizes

fresh lubricants as a make up through routine check up of the equipments.


Grease used for mill greasing system is collected and kept in empty barrels,

which are kept in waste oil section of the transit storage shed of user

department.

During the course of plant operation, if any abnormal situation occurs, which

demands use of unplanned lubricants by any equipment like transformer,

paddle feeder, stacker reclaimer etc., the same is drawn from Warehouse by

respective user department for emergency maintenance of the equipments.

After emergency maintenance the used lubricants so generated are

immediately returned to the Warehouse in barrels.

The filled barrels of used lubricants are returned to Warehouse by respective

departments on quarterly/half yearly basis depending on quantity of used

lubricants generated from respective areas.

In Workshop the used oils are generated only once in a year which are

reused for lubrication of equipments.

WASTE OIL

Two oil traps have been provided inside plant located at Boiler Area and

Transformer Area to trap the waste oil from industrial effluents generated

from plant. The trapped waste oil is collected in closed barrels during

cleaning of the oil traps. As per approval of OPCB waste oil can be disposed

over coal stack in coal yard.

USED BATTERIES

As per requirement of the user department the new batteries are issued from

Warehouse through ERP system. The batteries issued from Warehouse are

immediately replaced. Used batteries so generated are kept in the respective


battery rooms. These used batteries are returned to Warehouse on half

yearly/ yearly basis.

SPENT RESIN

Spent resins generated from DM Plant from time to time are collected in

closed barrels, which are kept inside DM Plant building.

DISPOSAL OF HAZARDOUS WASTES

Hazardous wastes of ITPS comprising of used lubricants, used batteries and

spent resin are sold to authorized recyclers on a regular basis by Warehouse

Team. Warehouse Team has authorization from SPCB, Orissa for handling

hazardous wastes as per the schedule given below with following special
