2.1.3 NATURE OF THE PROJECT
The Project proponent is seeking amendment in Environmental Clearance for existing polyester
chips manufacturing plant for change in fuel for 9.9 MW captive power generation. The existing
captive power plants will be standby till suitable/ acceptable customers are found/available for
sale/disposal, after proposed amendment. Even after proposed amendment the company is not
going to generate net effective power more than 9.9 MW.
2.1.4 NEED OF PROJECT & DEMAND-SUPPLY GAP
Present requirement of electrical energy is met through the 66 KV (10 MVA contract
demand) power utility connection from DGVCL.
The existing CPP is mostly Natural gas based turbine/generators. But currently it is not
operating due to very high cost of natural gas.
The current energy cost of power supplied by DGVCL is Rs. 7.61 per unit which has
substantial impact on operational cost of the company.
Power generation using natural gas is not economically viable, power supply from DGVCL
which is currently used is also becoming increasingly also. Hence, both conditions are not
viable under current domestic & export market scenario.
Considering the inconsistencies in assured NG supply & economic feasibility, JBF
proposes a fuel change from gas to coal based 9.9 MW CPP to make the manufacturing
cost effective and sustainable.
Project Pre-feasibility Report

Project: Amendment in EC for Change in Fuel for 9.9 MW Captive Power Generation
After proposed fuel change for captive generation by installing a 9.9 MW coal based
steam power plant, the electrical energy cost can be reduced upto Rs. 5.00 per unit
considering interest and depreciation and would be viable by continuous operation.
However, while proposing switch-over of fuels, JBF also intends to ensure that the
proposed installations will meet the permissible norms by installing the required APCD like
ESP and lime dosing system.
Most of our competitors are either located in UT of DNH or Daman who have the privilege
of lower power cost (Rs 4.2/unit) or in Gujarat have their own coal base power plant. This
makes our operation difficult and put our sales under lot of pressure.
After the proposed amendment the company will not add any load on the state power grid,
the surrendered power to DGVCL can be beneficial for other power starved industries.
Also, most of the power in grid supply is based on coal so proposed change in fuel for
captive power generation will not increase the overall coal load as the quantity of grid
power consumption will reduce.
The financial feasibility due to proposed change in fuel is provided in below given table 2.3.

3.4 PROJECT DESCRIPTION WITH PROCESS DETAILS
3.4.1 Captive Power Plant
The process comprises, the generation of steam in the boiler and utilization of energy content of
steam in the steam turbine for doing the work on turbine blades to generate mechanical energy.
The mechanical energy is converted to electrical energy by the generator coupled to the steam
turbine.
The steam is generated in a 45 Ton capacity AFBC boiler at a working pressure of 87 bar and
515 OC temp.
The major system and components of boiler includes feed water system, coal feeding system
with combustion control, FD & ID fan, air pre-heater, ESP, ash removal &handling system.
The steam generated in the boiler is piped to the inlet of steam turbine and pass through the
nozzles where pressure energy of steam is converted to kinetic energy and directed towards a
series of moving and stationary blades to do the work on the turbine wheel and expands to a
lower pressure and finally to vacuum in the range of 0.186 (abs) bar. The outlet steam from the
turbine is passed to air cooled condenser, where it is condensed back to water in the range of
54OC and water is further re-utilized for continuous feed supply to boiler and cycle is repeated.

air pre heater and the electrostatic precipitator hoppers. The dry ash collected in vessels will be
conveyed to ash silos by the application of compressed air. The ash accumulated in ash silos
will be loaded in to tankers/covered trucks given to the manufacturer of Bricks and ready mix
concretes for promoting fly ash utilization, in compliance with the Fly Ash Rules. The technical
specifications for Ash Handling System are attached as Annexure 4.
Ash handling will be done by dense phase pneumatic conveying.
Dense Phase Conveying System
One major concern for operating a Coal based Thermal power plant is the proper management
of Ash generated after combustion of Coal, which is generally generated in the furnace itself
and is trapped by the ESP. If proper system is installed for handling this ash, major hurdle of
ash management can be overcome.
The Dense Phase Conveying System is the most reliable; efficient to minimize particularly the
problems for handling the wide and adequate range of dry bulk solids up to 200 TPH capacities
at the exceeding terminal distances - 1,200 mtrs. This system includes weighing, batching,
blending, lump breaking, storage, master control equipments etc. through Dense Phase
Conveying System for bulk material handling in the plant.
Dense Phase System is applicable to push the highly dense concentration of bulk solids
effectively at a low constant speed inside the conveying pipe lines. Any type of material (heavy,
abrasive or, fragile, crystalline or granular) can be conveyed without causing the degradation
due to low velocity and less wear to the system components. This type of conveying is reliable,
flexible and maintenance free due to less number of moving parts and it can be easily installed
at places where space availability is very less specially for installing conventional conveying
systems.
The limited volume of air is utilized at the transporting vessel to move the material into the line
at maximum density while the balance air quantity is added along the conveying line through
coupling unit provided at starting on the pipeline to overcome the pipeline frictional losses; thus
pumping material at the highest obtainable efficiency. The Coupling Unit ensures a uniform
gradient and helps to maintain the material at maximum density. It also helps in maintaining the
desired velocity and overcoming the pipeline / bend's friction and helps to restart the flow of
Project Pre-feasibility Report
20
Project: Amendment in EC for Change in Fuel for 9.9 MW Captive Power Generation
blocked material if any along the conveying line regardless of length. This Coupling Unit also
helps in minimizing the compressed air consumption and pipe abrasion.
The plugging problem is prevented by improving the ratio of the material to air throughout the
system to convey the material at the highest obtainable efficiency and degree of reliability. The
highly abrasive materials can be conveniently conveyed at lowest possible velocities consuming
nominal quantity of air with the help of these systems. The highly flexible check valve provided
with Coupling Unit fittings are very responsive to any back feeding due to changes in conveying
line pressure thereby allowing throttling of the air supply pressure and volume automatically.
The designing of the system depends upon the properties of the material like convey ability,
moisture contents, product degradation, bulk densities etc.

4.7.1 TEMPERATURE
The summer season from March to May is a one of continuous increase in temperatures which
decreases during monsoons, increases slightly during the post-monsoon season and again
decreases during the winter. May is generally the hottest month with the mean daily maximum
temperature recorded at 33.1 oC and mean daily minimum temperature recorded at 26.8oC.
January is the coldest month with the mean daily maximum temperature as 27.7 oC and mean
daily minimum temperature observed as 16.5 oC.
4.7.2 HUMIDITY
The climate of the region is characterized by a humid summer because of the closeness to
coastline. Humidity is usually high during the monsoon months, with average relative humidity
generally exceeding 80%. Humidity decreases gradually during the post-monsoon months and
for rest of the year i.e. the period of December to April, the average relative humidity ranges
around 50-70%.
4.7.3 RAINFALL
About 95% of the annual rainfall is received during the southwest monsoon season i.e. from
June to September, July being the month with highest rainfall. The total annual rainfall observed
from the historical data of year 1951-1980 is 2182 mm.
4.7.5 WIND PATTERN
The annual resultant vector for wind direction shows winds blowing from WSW. During
summers and monsoon, the winds blow mostly from the sea i.e. the SW or WSW direction. The
post-monsoon & winter seasons experience a change in direction, with the winds blowing from
NE, ENE or NNE. The wind speed is high during monsoon and post monsoon seasons, slightly
moderate during summer and winter seasons.

3.0 Details required from the Client
The following details were requested from the client:
Stack emission details:
Stack height, Stack internal diameter at top, Exit gas velocity, Exit gas temperature, Characteristics of the fuels to be used and their consumption rates,Site layout with stack locations for assigning the coordinates.
4.0 The Dispersion Software -
The dispersion of pollutants in the atmosphere is a function of several meteorological parameters viz. wind speed, direction, stability class, etc. A number of models have been developed for the prediction of pollutant concentration at any point from an emitting source. The Industrial Source Complex Short Term (ISCST3) dispersion model is a steady-state Gaussian plume model. It is most widely accepted for its interpretability. It gives reasonably correct values because this obeys the equation of continuity and it also takes care of diffusion, which is a random process. It is also accepted by the Ministry of Environment & Forests, Govt. of India.
For the present study, the software-graphical user interface - , developed byLakes Environmental, Canada, using the ISCST3 model, was used for the prediction of maximum ground level concentration (GLC).

5.1.3 The receptor area and assigning local coordinate system to the study area
The receptor area is generally defined to predict the impact of the emissions due to the defined sources, by superimposing the predicted GLC on the existing ambient air quality status for each of the parameter to derive at a resultant air quality value.
The receptors have been identified as below:
A uniform Cartesian grid of receptors has been defined within as below:
There are two Cartesian grid of receptors UCART1 and UCART2 has been defined within as below.
UCART1 - Consisting of 1681 receptors each at a distance of 500 m,
UCART2 - Consisting of 441 receptors each at a distance of 100 m,
Moreover, each of the 8 nos. of AAQM stations that were used in the earlier EIA report carried out by the industry in March 2015 to May 2015, has been identified as specific Cartesian receptor.
Hence, a total of 2130 receptors have been considered for modeling the GLC.The approximate center of the plant (at 20°17'30.76"N, 72°51'13.56"E) was considered at (0, 0) co-ordinates of the Cartesian grid and corresponding values of Cartesian co-ordinates were assigned to the stack sources by overlaying the site layout plant on the Cartesian grid. Similarly, the receptors were assigned the Cartesian co-ordinates by overlaying a map of the 10km radial periphery on the cartesian co-ordinate system.
5.1.4 The terrain
The terrain of the domain boundary was considered as Complex + Simple terrain. The terrain elevations have been assigned to the sources and receptors in the study area by processing in AERMAP by utilization of SRTM3 (Shuttle Radar Topography Mission Global Coverage maps ~90m resolution) maps.

6.0 The Results
The contour plots of the 24 hourly average GLCs for each of the pollutant are illustrated in figures 4 to 9. The outcome of ISC-AERMOD View Model is tabulated in table 2 as Incremental GLC with other necessary details for maximum values of GLC as well as for selected discrete Cartesian receptors. The results of the maximum GLCs for prediction of ambient air quality due to the proposed flue gas stacks are presented at Table 3.

The result of dispersion modelling show, that the emission of PM10, SO2 and NOx from the plant will partially increase the level of air pollutants.
It is noteworthy that predicted GLC values of SO2 indicate decrease in the levels of SO2
in ambient air due to the proposed project. This is due to use of imported coal which has a lower Sulphur content, instead of furnace oil/ HSD. Furthermore, lime dosing is also carried out during use of imported coal.
Similarly, the predicted GLCs for NOx also indicate a decrease in levels of NOx in ambient air due to the decrease in the number of operational utilities after the installation of the turbine.
However, as shown at the Table 4 when superimposed over the baseline concentrations the resultant concentrations viz. the predicted level of conventional pollutants in the ambient air are well below the National Ambient Air Quality Standards.
Thus, the impacts of conventional pollutants would not be significant from the proposed project during normal operation phase.
