Preliminary data show that the emissions of the seven pollutants are within the prescribed limits. These range from particulate matter and sulfur dioxide to total organic carbon and carbon monoxide. During the first test, the feed rate or incineration rate was 135 kg/hour and in the second test, it was 180 kg/hour.
this The second trial began on the morning of March 6Thursday, Saturday ends at 7 p.m.
The trial was stopped for 22 minutes on Saturday as the Internet shutdown affected the collection of continuous emission monitoring data.
Even if the values of the seven pollutants and gases are within the specified range of values, emission analysis of the toxic chemicals dioxins and Furans has not been completed. “Samples of dioxins and Furans have been collected and the results will take at least two weeks,” said Shrinivas Dwivedi, regional director of MPPCB.
Dioxin and furan are hazardous and toxic chemicals emitted during hazardous waste incineration, and emissions may exceed safety restrictions if the incineration of the electric kiln and Chambers are incomplete.
