  • SASTI OPENCAST PROJECT Location :

    Sasti Opencast Project is located in Chandrapur district of Maharashtra State and is administered by Ballarpur Area of Western Coalfields Limited.

    Communication :

    The Sasti opencast project can be approached by road from south from Rajura town, which is 172 km from Nagpur. The distance between Sasti OC and Rajura town is about 13 km. Ballarshah railway junction on the Nagpur - Khazipet line of Central Railway is about 12 km by road from Rajura.

    Drainage : The Wardha river is the main drainage channel for the surrounding area.

    Climate :

    The climate of the area is tropical. May is the hottest month with temperature rising to a

    maximum of 48oC. December is the coldest month when the temperature falls down to 10oC.

    Other Industries :

    Besides other coal mines viz. Gouri OC, Pauni OC, Dhuptala OC, Ballarpur OC & Ballarpur UG, the major industry i.e. Ballarpur Paper Mill is falling within the 10 kms radius of the Sasti OCP.

    Pollution due to other sources :

    The above mentioned sources are expected to contribute in increasing the load of pollution in the area. Domestic coal burning in the village area also contributes to a lot in increasing the air pollution.

  • Recommendations :

    Air : 13. Regular water sprinkling is required to keep the SPM level within TLV. 14. Regular cleaning of coal transportation road should be done. 15. Proper maintenance of CHP is required to minimize dust generation. 16. Dust suppression by mist in CHP should be tried. 17. Green barrier may be developed around village and colony area.

    Water Noise

    : 1. Mine discharge to be treated properly before discharge into natural water course. 1. Noise levels should be kept below TLV at industrial as well as residential site.

    Frequency of Monitoring :

    Air : Frequency of monitoring is as per the Env. (Protection) Amendment Rules published vide Gazette dt. 25.9.2000.

    Water : Water quality is monitored on fortnightly basis. Noise : Noise level is monitored on fortnightly basis.

    Methodology of Sampling and Analysis :

    Air : 24 hourly air samples are collected with Respirable Dust Sampler at selected

    locations to monitor ambient air quality w.r.t. Suspended particulate matter (SPM), Respirable Particulate Matter (PM-10), Sulphur di-oxide (SO2) and Oxides of nitrogen (NOX) etc.

    SPM : Ambient air laden with suspended particulates enters the Respirable Dust Sampler through the inlet pipe of sampler by means of a high flow rate blower . As the air passes through the cyclone, coarse, non-respirable dust (size >10 ) is separated from the air stream by centrifugal forces acting on the solid particles.

    These separated particles fall through the cyclone's conical hopper and collect in the sampling bottle placed at bottom. The fine dust forming the respirable fraction (size

  • is carried by the air stream to the Glass Micro Fiber Filter Paper. The Respirable dust (PM-10) is retained by the filter and the carrier air exhausted from the system through the blower. The mass concentration (g/m3) of Suspended Particulate Matter (non-respirable dust and respirable dust) and Respirable Particulate Matter in the ambient air is computed by measuring the mass of collected particulates and the volume of air sampled.

    NOX : Determination of oxides of Nitrogen is based on the procedure of "Jacobs and Hochheiser method". In this method the air sample is collected 24 hourly in the field and analysed in the laboratory using spectronic 20 D+ Spectrophotometer. Nitrogen oxides as Nitrogen di-oxide are collected by bubbling air through a Sodium hydroxide solution to form a stable solution of Sodium nitrite. The nitrite ion produced during sampling is determined colorimetrically (with the help of Spectrophotometer, measuring absorbance at 540 nm) by reacting the exposed absorbing reagent with Phosphoric acid, Sulphanilamide and N(1-naphthyl) ethylenediamine dihydrochloride. The interference of Sulphur di-oxide is eliminated by converting it to Sulphuric acid with Hydrogen peroxide before analysis.

    SO2 : Determination of SO2 is based on the procedure of West and Gaeke method. Sulphur di-oxide from the air stream is absorbed in a Sodium tetrachloromercurate solution to form a stable solution of Dichlorosulphitomercurate. The amount of Sulphur dioxide is then estimated by the colour produced when P-Rosaniline hydrochloride is added to the solution. The colour is estimated by a reading of absorbance at 560 nm in the Spectrophotometer.

    CO : Carbon mono-oxide (CO) is measured by non-dispersion, infrared spectroscopy method. Concentration of CO in ambient air is measured once in a year by infrared gas analyzer (type ZRJ).

    Water : Mine water discharge is collected on fortnightly basis in plastic zaricane and is transported to the laboratory for analysis. As per the Env. (Protection) Amendment Rules published vide Gazette dt. 25.9.2000, water samples are analysed fortnightly for the parameters - pH, TSS, Oil & Grease and COD and once in a year for all parameters as per Schedule VI, Env. Protection rule.

    Noise : Day time and Night time Noise level data are recorded fortnightly.

    Remarks :

    Air : As per the Env. (Protection) Amendment Rules published vide Gazette dt. 25.9.2000, air quality monitoring has been done on fortnightly basis in respect of all locations of this project. However, it was observed that the values of SPM and PM-10 were less than 50% of their maximum permissible concentration for three consecutive months in respect of location no. BPOA-1, therefore, sampling frequency was shifted to two days in a quarter in respect of this location. During this quarter also, values of SPM and PM-10 have been observed less than 50% of their maximum permissible concentration in respect of location no. BPOA-1 ,BPOA-3 and BPOA-4. During this quarter, values of SPM & PM 10 in most of location are within permissible limits.

    Water : Water samples monitored in this quarter for most of the parameters and location are within permissible limit.

    Noise : Recorded Noise level data are within the permissible limits in most of the locations.

    Recommendations :

    Air

    : 22. Regular water sprinkling is required to keep the SPM level within TLV. 23. Proper maintenance of CHP is required to minimize dust generation. 24. Dust suppression by mist in CHP should be tried. 25. Green barrier may be developed around village and colony area.

  • Water Noise

    1. Mine discharge to be treated properly before discharge into natural water course. 1. Noise levels should be kept below TLV at industrial as well as residential site.
