1.3.2 Process Description of Power Plant.
Coal will be fired in a high pressure boiler to produce steam which will be fed to steam turbine which will drive the generator connected rigidly to it. The power output from the generator through appropriate electrical system will be fed to the grid for distribution to consumers. Exhaust steam from the turbine will be cooled in the water cooled surface condenser and the condensate water will be recycled in the power cycle involving boiler, turbine and condenser. Water for cooling purpose is required in the condenser, heat exchanger of auxiliary systems of boiler, turbine and generator etc. In addition, water is required for bottom ash handling system, dust suppression system of coal handling, fire fighting systems, drinking (in plant and colony), make up for the power cycle etc. Hot water outlet of condenser and other heat exchangers will be cooled in IDCT and reused in the system. Similarly, water used in other systems mentioned above will be recycled to the extent possible after suitable treatment. However, make-up will be required to be added for replenishing the loss due to evaporation, blow down and other consumptive use. To minimize the makeup, effluent water from different process in the power station will be treated so as to make it suitable for reuse in the development of green belt, sanitation, dust suppression etc. Fly Ash produced after burning coal in the boiler will be collected in ESP and will be conveyed pneumatically to storage silo located within the plant premises. The bottom ash and fly ash will be stored in dry form in the intermediate silo. From the intermediate silo, tapping will be taken for disposal in the form of high concentration slurry. The high concentration slurry (HCS) will finally be disposed to Ash Disposal Area. The fly ash will be evacuated in the dry form and conveyed to fly ash storage silo, from where it will be disposed of to potential customers.
1.4 Plant location and layout
The Plant layout and location map of the plant site, are presented in Figure-1.1, Figure-1.2 respectively.

Vidarbha Industries Power Limited Six Monthly Environmental Monitoring Report
3.0 DATA ANALYSIS
Environmental monitoring for the period of Jul.- Dec. 2016 consisted of collection and analysis of
meteorological parameters, ambient air quality and ground water and surface water quality at
different locations within study area selected for carrying out environmental monitoring around the
plant site.
3.1 Meteorology
Meteorological data was collected on hourly basis for wind speed, Wind direction, temperature and
relative humidity continuously. Total Rain fall for monthly basis during the period of Jul.- Dec. 2016
was measured and recorded and reported in the monthly Environmental report .
Wind Pattern for the period Jul. – Dec. 2016.
The data recorded during the study period was analyzed and the daily maximum, minimum and total
of all the parameters were observed. The summary of all the meteorological observations is given in
Table-3.1.

3.2 Ambient Air Quality
Ambient air quality has been carried out for the period of Jul- Dec.2016. PM10, PM2.5, SO2 & NO2
sampling at all the four locations is done for 24 hours average for two days in a week and 8 hourly
averages for Carbon Monoxide, Ozone, Lead and Mercury recorded once in a month. The values
obtained were then compared vis-a-vis the standards prescribed by CPCB for Industrial/ Rural /
Residential uses.
3.2.1 Presentation of Results.
The summary of Ambient Air Quality monitoring results for the period of Jul- Dec.2016 are
presented in detail in Table 3.2. 98th percentile; maximum and minimum values etc have been
computed from the collected raw data for all the AAQ monitoring station. The data has been
compared with the standards prescribed by Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB)/NAAQ for
residential and rural zone.

3.3 Stack Monitoring.
Stack monitoring is done with the help of stack Kit (ECOTECH Stack Kit) & Prob set, twice in a month at Boiler Stack situated in plant. Height of the Boiler Stack was noted as, 220m and I.D. 12.1m.Flue gas, Velocity, Temperature, Volume & Qty, Moisture Content, SPM, SO2, NOx, Pb, CO are analysed. The values obtained are then compared vis-a-vis with the standards prescribed by CPCB.
3.3.1 Presentation of Results. The Stack analysis results for the period of Jul.-Dec.2016 are presented in detail for various parameters like Flue gas, Velocity, Temperature, Volume & Qty, Moisture Content, SPM, SO2, NOx, Pb, CO values etc computed from the collected raw data for the Stack monitoring station. The summary of these results is presented below. The data has been compared with the standards prescribed by Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB)/MPCB

3.4 Water Quality
3.4.1 Ground Water Quality.
Ground waters was collected at Seven locations and Surface water at two locations within the 10 km
radial distance of power plant were analyzed as per IS 10500 to assess the quality of water for
portability.
Presentation of Results
The results of the water quality monitored in the period of Jul.-Dec. 2016, that of two surface water
and seven ground water samples and One drinking water samples. The summary of surface water
quality is given in Table-3.4, the summary of ground water quality is given in Table-3.5 and the
summary of Drinking water quality the findings are discussed below.
Most of the villages in the Nearby plant area have hand pumps and wells, as most of the residents of
these villages make use of this water for drinking and other domestic uses.
The analysis results indicate that the pH ranges from 7.50 to 7.90, the maximum pH of 7.90 was
observed at Pipri village and inside Plant bore well ( GW4 &GW6 ) and the minimum pH of 7.50
observed at Mandwa Bore well (GW2) which is well within the specified standard of 6.5 to 8.5.
Total hardness was observed to be ranging from 190 to 506 mg/l. The maximum hardness 506 mg/l
was recorded at inside plant bore well (GW6) and the minimum hardness of 190 mg/l was recorded
at Outside plant bore well (GW5). which is well within the specified standard of 200(600) mg/l.
Chlorides were found to be in the range of 17.6 mg/l to 53.2 mg/l, the maximum concentration of
chlorides was observed at inside plant bore well (GW5) and the minimum concentration of
chlorides was observed at outside plant Bore well (GW5)
Sulphates were found to be in the range of 13.4 mg/l to 64 mg/l. The maximum value observed at
inside plant bore well (GW6) and the minimum value observed at outside plant Bore well (GW5).
The values of Chlorides and sulphates are acceptable limits.
3.4.2 Surface Water Quality.
The analysis results indicate that the pH values in the range of 7.40 to 7.75 the minimum and
maximum value was observed at Krishna Nalah near Takalghat Village (SW1)& Pipri Nala
(SW2) , which is well within the specified standard of 6.5 to 8.5.

Vidarbha Industries Power Limited Environmental Monitoring Report
TDS was observed in the range of 196 mg/l to 270mg/l, the minimum & maximum TDS value was
observed in Krishna Nala near Takalghat (SW1) & Pipri Nala (SW2), where as TDS is within
Desirable limits.
Chlorides and Sulphates were found to be in the range of 9.7 to 19.3 mg/l and 8.2 to 14 mg/l
respectively. It is observed that chlorides are within acceptable limits and Sulphates are well within
acceptable limits. It is evident from the above values that all the parameters are found to comply
with the requirements of IS: 10500 specification of surface water except bacteriological parameters.
The surface water quality does not indicate any industrial contamination.
Heavy metals concentrations for metals like Arsenic (As), Mercury (Hg), Lead (Pb), Cadmium (Cd),
Chromium (Cr) and Copper (Cu) were found to be within the acceptable limits.
3.4.3 Drinking Water Quality.
The analysis results indicate all parameter including bacteriological and heavy metal parameters are well within the drinking water standards. are given in Table-3.6
3.4.4 Waste Water Quality.
11 waste water samples were also collected, Analytical methods mentioned in IS: 3025 and Standard
Methods published by APHA were followed. The summary of waste water quality collected on
monthly basis for the period of Jul.- Dec. 2016 are given in Table-3.8
3.5 Noise Level:
Noise level was measured in basic units of dB(A) at ten location inside the plant (industrial Area)
and 4 location in the Buffer zone during day time and Night time for 24Hrs.
Noise level was found within the acceptable limits during daytime as well as night time for all
locations with reference to CPCB standard limits for Industrial area and Residential area.
Noise level at following location were recorded for the period of Jul.- Dec.-2016 on monthly
basis. The summary of Noise Level is given in Table-3.9 and Table-3.10.
3.6 Coal Quality
Coal prepared sample collected from laboratory in monthly basis for the period of Jul- Dec. 2016.
are summaries in Table-3.11
