Pollution control measures at Visakhapatnam Port Trust

Visakhapatnam Port Trust being a bulk cargo handling port and in order to address the dust generation problem, as a continual improvement, apart from mechanization of bulk cargoes handling viz. Coal, Iron ore, Fertilizers etc. through BOT/PPP operators, port has taken up various other pollution control measures and are being monitored through a mechanism as mentioned below:

A) SOURCE OF DUST GENERATION:

In conventional coal handling, dust generation is mainly due to multiple

handling such as unloading the coal from ship using grabs and placed on the berth, from berth loading in to dumpers, dumpers transport the coal to stackyards, stacking of coal at stack yards, from stack yard loading in to railway wagons etc. B) MITIGATIVE MEASURES: In order to address the dust generation problem, mechanization of cargo handling is the major solution, where in bulk cargo / coal unloaded from ship falls in a hopper, from hopper passed on to closed conveyor, conveyor to stack yard, from stack yard to silo with bucket wheel reclaimer / conveyor arrangement, loading in to railway wagons from silo etc. and transportation to the destination. In the said process, it can be seen that transport to stack yards through dumpers by road is avoided and conventional handling as mentioned above is avoided. Also environmental measures viz. sprinkling and dry fogging at unloading points, transfer houses in conveyor system are also essential and there by dust generation is minimized.

1) THE POLLUTION MITIGATIVE MEASURES IN PLACE AT

MECHANIZED COAL HANDLING PROJECTS:

3

2) THE POLLUTION MITIGATIVE MEASURES IN PLACE AT OTHER

AREAS:

A) The very first step in controlling and managing the dust generated by Coal handling is the Mechanical Dust Suppression System (MDSS), which was commissioned in 2002 with capital cost of Rs.7.89 Crores. This system sprinkles water over the Coal stacks at the stack yards so that the Coal stacks are wet and the dust does not rise into the air.

B) To reduce the spread of dust on to areas beyond the Port, a dust barrier was constructed at the R11 area in the North at a height of 7.5 meters for a length of 500m. at a cost of Rs.1.50 Crores. Another dust barrier of height 11.5 metres for a length of 1000m was constructed on the Eastern and Northern side of the East Yard at a cost of Rs.2.50 Crores.

4

C) 90% of the coal is being evacuated by rail avoiding road movement and thereby to minimize dust emissions. However, the roads in the Visakhapatnam Port are being wetted by water tankers round the clock to prevent emission of dust during movement of vehicles. A total of 275 trips i.e. about 4.0 MLD of treated water is sprinkled per day through tankers and a about 3.0 MLD is sprinkled through MDSS.

D) Covering of trucks, railway wagons and stacks with tarpaulins.

5

E) A comprehensive environment management system is set up to remove floating matter from Geddas, desilting of drains, manual sweeping of roads, etc. at the cost of Rs.6.38 Crores. Work order issued during July 2015 for a period of two years and the work is in progress.

F) In order to reduce fugitive dust, agents are covering the coal stacks

with tarpaulins. However, whenever the agents are not covering the stacks as mentioned above, Visakhapatnam port is taking up covering

6

of the such stacks, for which an agency is in place for Supply of Tarpaulins and manpower for covering of Coal and other Cargo stacks with Tarpaulins at yearly cost of Rs.0.85 Crores.

G) Two Truck Mounted Fog Canons deployed to suppress the dust while

loading / unloading cargo at berth and stack yards at a cost of Rs.0.90 Crores.

H) Construction and operation of Truck Tyre Cleaning System at B

Ramp i.e. at the interface of port and city roads, at a cost of Rs.0.81 Crores for which work order issued on 14.09.2015 and work is in progress and targeted to be completed by March 2016.

I) The reorganization of the stack yards is in progress so that the dust

generating stacks such as Coal is being shifted to the inner side of the Harbour and non-dusty cargos at the periphery. Initially shifting of cargo to designated stacks is targeted to be completed by March 2016.

J) Repairs / modifications to existing sprinkling systems at S4 and

WOB areas at a cost of Rs. 1.60 crores is in progress and targeted to be completed by end of March 2016.

K) Supply, operation & maintenance of Continuous online ambient air

quality monitoring (CAAQM) stations at three identified areas of Port of

Visakhapatnam for a period of 5 years at a cost of Rs. 2.71 crores is

under progress and expected to be completed by end of April 2016.

3) FUTURE PLANS FOR THE ENVIRONMENTAL MITIGATIVE

MEASURES:

7

A) SHORT TERM PLANS (DURING 2015-17): (a) Under continual improvement program, another dust barrier of 7.50m

height and 1.70KM long i.e. from the Sea Horse Junction to Convent Junction at the city interface is under construction at a cost of Rs.9.75 Crores. Work order was already released and the work is under progress and expected to be completed by May 2016.

(b) Sweeping of roads within the Port by mechanical sweeping machine

at a cost of Rs.2.81 Crores. Tenders have been floated. (c) Up-gradation and strengthening of BT and CC Blocks for

Operational Roads including drains and Berms (East Zone) at a cost of Rs.16.31 Crores. Tenders have been floated.

(d) Strengthening and up-gradation of BT and CC Blocks for roads

Sub: Sediment Transport Investigation at Visakhapatnam Port –Dumping Ground - Reg.

Ref: VPT fax letter. No. IENG/SE-V/AE-I/CWPRS/2016 dated 25 Feb. 2016 Sir,

With reference to your fax on the subject matter, this is to inform that based on the Radio-

active studies conducted at Visakhapatnam, dumping ground is suitable for disposal of

contemplated dumping activity. From the sounding chart (Fig.1 given in the Annexure)

obtained from dumping ground survey conducted in the year 2015 and also in view of the

fact that maintenance dredging of the port is reasonably low, it is opined that spoil ground of

2.6 Sq.km area is suitable for proposed dumping. The material to be disposed, 9.66 Lakh

Cum, from the proposed capital dredging (Table.1) is not expected to come back towards

the shipping channel. Radio-active Tracer studies conducted along with BARC indicated that

disposed sediment predominantly moved towards South-West direction.

Maintenance dredging quantities during the period 2010 to 2015 (Table.2) indicates that

annual maintenance dredging requirement would be of the order of 2.56 Lakh.cum. It is

learnt that all the material being dredged from the sand trap area is being used for the beach

nourishment of the down-drift northern coastline to tackle the littoral drift phenomenon and to

maintain the dynamic equilibrium of the coastline and thus reducing the quantity of deep-sea

dumping. Annual maintenance dredging carried out from other operational areas only, which

is not that significant, is to be dumped in the deep-sea dumping ground besides the

occasional capital dredging quantity.

Since the dumping ground is located in the deeper contours beyond -40m, with more offset

distance of 1.45Km from the port approach channel, the chances of the dumped material

finding its way back in to the port approach area are negligible with the expected dumping

rates.
