Introduction +
The purpose of this procedure is to confirm whether, the stack emissions are
within the limits laid down in consent orders by Gujarat Pollution Control
Board, Gandhinagar.
Procedure +
!
At !"# stack emission monitoring of each plant is carried out by
GPCB registered contractor.
$C% !ncinerator & P$C 'ryer "ine ! & !! are monitored twice in a
month. All other stacks are monitored once in a month.
!n P()! plant, %(G)!, !!, !!! plant, Cracker Plant, PTA *!, !! plant and
P+, plant, the contractor is using flame proof -acuum pump. !n case
flame proof -acuum pump is not a-ailable, then hot work permit is
obtained by en-ironmental engineer.
.ample of flue gas emission for particulate matter is collected under
iso kinetic sampling condition.
.ingle phase /01$. electrical supply for -acuum pump is supplied by
respecti-e electrical sub stations.
