EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Air is an important life sustaining resource. Given the fact that a person breathes in more than six liters of air every minute, the quality of air becomes a prime concern. The composition of air in natural environment is constant but is being changed due to release of large amount of emissions by industries, automobiles and other sources. This changed quality became a great threat to survival of life, properties, materials and ecosystem as a whole. Gujarat was among the States scoring minimum percentile (0‐20) for Air quality in a study undertaken by ‘Center for Development Finance – Institute For Financial Management & Research’ ‐ Chennai in 2011 named ‘Environmental Sustainability Index for Indian States.’
This report on Air is divided into five sections namely – ‘Pressure’ which discusses the factors which contribute to the quality of Air in Gujarat, ‘State’ elaborates the present quality of Air with respect to various parameters such as SO2, NOx, SPM, RSPM, PM2.5, VOCs etc, ‘Impact’ details out the impact of air quality especially on human health and other things, ‘Response’ features various steps taken at national and state level to improve overall air quality and ‘Recommendations’ suggest some measures which can help improve the present scenario of Air Quality at policy level. Local initiatives that can go a long way in improving quality of air have also been mentioned.
The contributing factors to air pollution are largely Population, Urbanisation, Industries, Vehicles, domestic sources etc. In addition, meteorological and climatic conditions of any area are responsible for contributing to the background air quality levels. Rainfall, wind speed, temperature and soil type are important in this category.
Urban population in Gujarat has risen from 37.36 per cent in 2001 to 42.58% in 2011, making it one of the fastest growing urbanised states. This Concentration of population in urban centers makes huge pressures on land, air and water pollution. Ahmedabad is the largest city of Gujarat with 7.2 million people living here. Surat and Vadodara are other two major cities with high number of urban population followed by Rajkot with population of 1.50 million. As per Census 2011, Gujarat has 30 urban centers with more than 1 lac population. Seven Municipal Corporations contribute to 56.12% of the total urban population of the state. The air temperatures in densely built urban areas are often higher than the temperatures of the surrounding countryside.
The State has continued to witness impressive industrial development since its inception. There are 182 industrial estates spread throughout the State covering an area of 3200 hectares, 83 industrial clusters, 60 notified SEZs and 11 notified SIRs. Also a major part of DMIC corridor (38%) is going to pass through Gujarat. The total number of industries having pollution potential as registered with Gujarat Pollution Control Board as on 02/05/2012 is 22125 out of which 16511 belong to air polluting category. Coal based power generation is considered to be a major contributor to air pollution and in Gujarat; power generation is largely coal based to the tune of 54%. Among air polluting sectors, minerals industry ranks among the top. The impact of mining on air starts from exploration phase, increases manifold during operational phase and may even extend beyond the mine closure. The fugitive emission is a common phenomena related to mining, which is very significant in case of open cast mining as compared to undergrounding. In addition to this, waste handling, transportation and its storage also have high dust potential. Mining covers only 0.033% of
Page X
Executive Summary State of Air Environment
the total state area. Though Kachchh (28.18km2) has maximum area under mining, Sabarkantha has highest percentage in landuse under mining. Mining in Gujarat is usually done for production of Agate, Steatite , Gypsum, Limestone, Lignite, Bauxite, Laterite, Dolomite, Clay (others), China Clay, Bentonite, Quartz ,Silica sand and Chalk.
Vehicular air pollution is one of the major contributors to the overall air pollution in any area. The fleet of vehicles in Gujarat has been growing at phenomenal proportion. The vehicular population in the last decade has grown from 5576040 to 12993135 (133%). In 2011 major contributor to the fleet are the two wheelers forming 73.17%, followed by private cars and goods vehicles. Public transport systems have not been able to keep pace with the rapid and substantial increases in demand over the past few decades.
Another major source of air pollution is burning of fossil fuels. The household sector is the second largest consumer of energy in India after the industrial sector. Gujarat still has 77.30% rural population using unprocessed solid fuel. The improvement in 5 years from NFHS‐ 2 and NFHS ‐3 is marginal and the usage of unprocessed fuel is reduced only by marginal 4.7 % in rural areas. For a progressive state like Gujarat having abundant natural resources, this is an alarming figure.
An inventory of air pollutants is a necessary first step towards control of air pollution. The ambient air quality is monitored in the State by Gujarat Pollution Control Board. The parameters being monitored are SO2, NOx, SPM & RSPM. The data for the years 2006 to 2010 has been analysed. Monitoring of PM 2.5 has also been started in Ahmedabad since June 2011. Monitoring of VOCs for 25 industrial clusters in Gujarat has also been initiated since May 2011. Noise levels are being monitored only during festivals of Navratri and Diwali.
Trends in Annual Average Concentration of SO2, NOx, SPM and RSPM show that the air pollution in residential areas with respect to SO2 and NOx is within limits but SPM and RSPM levels are a cause for concern in most cities in the state. Trends in PM2.5 for Ahmedabad which is a recent addition have also been shown. Values are consistently high at traffic junctions like Nehru Bridge in Ahmedabad. At other locations, higher values are observed during winter months and lower levels are observed during monsoon months. The winter months are relatively much calmer than other months. The prevailing calm conditions facilitate more stability to atmosphere and consequently slow dispersion of pollutants generated and help in build up of pollutants in vicinity of the pollutant sources. If we look into the industrial clusters, the values of SO2, NOx, SPM and RSPM do not cross the critical levels in general. However, if we consider benzene, then industrial areas of Naroda, Vatva, Pandesara, Ankleshwar, Panoli and Dahej exhibit continuously higher values. Hot Spots based on the pressures have been identified in the state. Major contributors to air pollution are Population, industries and Vehicles. Rate of urbanisation and industrialization leading to growth of vehicles overall make cities Ahmedabad, Surat, Vadodara and Rajkot the hot spots for air pollution.
The United Nations Environment Programme has estimated that globally 1.1 billion people breathe unhealthy air (UNEP, 2002). Epidemiological studies have shown that concentrations of ambient air particles are associated with a wide range of effects on human health, especially on the cardio‐respiratory system. Beyond its human health impacts, air pollution is also detrimental to ecosystems. Through direct exposure and accumulation, reactive compounds negatively impact plant growth and are primary contributors to acid rain, which can diminish fish stocks, decrease biological diversity in

sensitive ecosystems, degrade forests and soils, and diminish agricultural productivity. Air pollution is also known to have damaging effect on non living materials in the form of corrosion of metal, soiling and eroding of building surfaces etc. No health impact studies due to air pollution have been carried out in Gujarat in recent past.
Various efforts have been made by stakeholders to abate air pollution from different sources. These efforts are being made at national, state and individual level to adopt strategies that can reduce the impacts due to air pollution. Government of India enacted the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act 1981 to arrest the deterioration in the air quality. At national level, the efforts were in the form of Tightening of Ambient Air Quality Norms, Preparation of Zoning Atlas, Improved Vehicle Emission Norms, Improved Fuel Quality Norms etc. At state level, efforts are in the form of Air Action Plans, Monitoring of Industries, Strengthening of PUC Stations, CNG/LPG Infrastructure for Auto Gas Supply, Registration of Retrofitters, Banning of Old Autos & Conversion to CNG in Ahmedabad, Improved Public Transport System. Promoting public bus transport is viewed as a top priority area to improve urban road traffic and for controlling air pollution from automobiles. Efforts at individual level are in the form of Conversion of Vehicles to Cleaner Fuel (CNG/LPG), Use of Natural Gas by Industries, shifting from solid fuels at household level.
To focus the actions in right direction to reduce ambient air pollution; source apportionment exercises to find out the qualitative and quantitative contribution of various sources are needed to be carried out. Also there is a need to extend Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Programme to remaining areas in the State and to incorporate other parameters in monitoring as per the ambient air quality standards notified in 2009. More epidemiological studies need to be conducted at regular intervals to detect and analyze the health effects of air pollution. There is a need to strengthen Mass Transportation in cities and to promote use of cleaner fuel. Improvement in traffic management system to relieve congestion is urgently called for by linking the by lanes and introducing parallel road system. Pedestrianising busy areas in peak periods, permitting parking at nodal points by designating parking areas need to be implemented. Since there are multiple contributors to air pollution like vehicles, industries, fuel burning etc., therefore, control strategies require active co‐operation among all the concerned agencies and require creation of some common form where all the agencies can come together to plan strategies and programmes to prevent and control air pollution.

INTRODUCTION
Air is an important life sustaining resource. Given the fact that a person breathes in more
than six liters of air every minute, the quality of air becomes a prime concern. Air
pollution as defined under Air (Prevention & Control of Pollution) Act 1981 is “presence
of any solid, liquid or gaseous substance (including noise) in the atmosphere in such
concentrations as may be injurious to human beings or other living creatures or plants or
property or environment.” The composition of air in natural environment is constant but
is being changed due to release of large amount of emissions by industries, automobiles
and other sources. This changed quality has become a great threat to survival of life and
ecosystem as a whole.
The World Bank has predicted that India’s water, air, soil and forest resources will be
under more human pressure than those of any other country by the year 2020. India is
also ranked lowest (132) for its air quality (effect on Human Health) in the recent
Environmental Performance Index conducted by Environmental Research Centers at Yale
and Columbia Universities in 2011. A study ‘Environmental Sustainability Index for Indian
States’ undertaken by the Center for Development Finance of Institute For Financial
Management & Research’ Chennai indicates that Gujarat faces maximum challenge in
maintaining environment. ESI is constructed as a composite index using 41 key
environmental indicators which are further grouped into nine thematic sub indices –air
quality and pollution, water quality and availability, land use and agriculture, forest and
biodiversity, waste generation and management, energy management, impact on human
health & disaster, population pressure on ecosystem and environmental budget. Gujarat
has obtained very low Sustainability percentile ranging between 0-20 as compared to
other industrial states of Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu which have a sustainability
percentile of 40.1-60.0. Sub Index for Air Quality for Gujarat is also negative as shown in
Fig 1.1.

Another study titled ‘Comprehensive Environmental Assessment of Industrial Clusters’
was done by CPCB in 2009 for 88 industrial clusters. From Gujarat; Ahmedabad,
Ankleshwar, Junagadh, Rajkot, Surat, Vadodara, Vapi, and Vatva figure in this list in
terms of air pollution.
The current study analyses the state of Air Environment for Gujarat. The framework used
is Pressure, State, Impact and Response (PSIR) which is the same as used in preparation
of State of Environment Report at National level. State of Environment for Gujarat was
last published in 2005.
Fig B: PSIR Framework
The report has been arranged as follows. Section I discusses the pressures which alter the
natural composition of atmosphere. These include natural as well as anthropogenic
factors like meteorological and climatic conditions, population growth, urbanisation,
industrilisation, use of fossil fuels, mining activities, vehicular growth and fuel
consumption by domestic and industrial sectors. Following the identified pressures,
Section II describes the present state of environment with respective to various pollution
parameters for last five years. Trends in SO2, NOx, SPM, RSPM, PM2.5 are established.
VOCs and their influence in the industrial areas of Gujarat are also considered. Odour and
Noise also contribute to pollution categorized as nuisance and cause discomfort to
population near to source and these are also discussed in brief in this section.
Identification of Hot Spots in the State has been done based on various pressure
parameters. Section III details out the impacts of air pollution from economic and health
aspects. This section also looks into some specific health studies conducted at State level.
Responses at National, State and individual levels are reviewed for maintaining and
improving the air quality in Section IV. This also includes the policies, strategies and the
legal measures undertaken to improve the air quality. Finally, Section V lists out the
recommendations which may help in making Gujarat a sustainable and environment
friendly state.

The study of air pollution requires a clear understanding of all sources contributing to air
pollutants. Even from the control point of view; the sources of pollution need to be
identified to take corrective measures in the right direction. Following sub sections
describe the various sources which exert pressure on air quality.
1.1 Air Pollutants
Air pollutants can be natural or may be the result of various anthropogenic activities like
industrial, vehicular or other emissions. Further the air pollutants can be primary or
secondary depending upon their formation mechanism. Primary pollutants are directly
emitted from the source and secondary pollutants are formed in the atmosphere. Air
pollutants are classified into particulate matter and gaseous pollutants. Table 1.1
highlights various air pollutants and their most common sources of generation.
Table 1.1: Air Pollutants & their Sources of Generation
Air Pollutant Typical Sources
Particulate Matter Mines and quarries, pottery and ceramics, power stations, cement factories, vehicles, natural sources
Sulphur dioxide Power houses, sulphuric acid plants, petroleum industry, oil refining, domestic use of fuel, vehicles
Nitrogen dioxide Acid manufacture, automobile exhaust, explosive industry
Carbon monoxide Fuel gases, automobile exhaust, mines, blast furnaces

1.2 Pressures on Air Quality
1.2.1 Meteorological & Climatic Conditions
Meteorological variables are a major contributor to the overall air quality of an area.
Even though the total discharge of air pollutants into the atmosphere may remain
constant, the ambient concentrations of air pollutants may vary depending upon the
meteorological conditions. The main parameters which directly affect concentrations of
pollutants are geophysical features of an area, rainfall and wind speed. Higher
concentrations are observed in the winter months when poor dispersion conditions
prevail. This relationship is reflected in the seasonal variation in the pollutant
concentrations.
Another important contributing factor is ambient temperature. Low temperatures during
the winter months lead to increased fuel usage for heating purposes. When solid fuels
are combusted for domestic heating, particulate emissions increase. This, together with
poor dispersion conditions, is likely to be key contributor to high concentration of air
pollutants in winter. During summer, the phenomenon of natural dust-laden winds from
arid and semi arid regions increase the PM levels.

In Gujarat, winters are mild, pleasant, and dry with average daytime temperatures of 29
°C and average night time temperature of 12 °C with 100 percent sunny days and clear
nights. The summers are extremely hot and dry with average daytime temperatures of 41
°C and average night time temperature of 29 °C. Monsoon season starts around mid
June. During monsoon, the average day temperatures gets lowered to 35 °C and average
night time temperature to 27 °C, however, this season has high humidity levels. The
northern region receives a rainfall ranging from 51 to 102 centimeters; whereas the
southern region receives 76 to 152 centimeters of rainfall. Rainfall in the southern
regions of Saurashtra and the Gulf of Cambay is low compared to the other parts of
Gujarat. Gujarat receives more than 3000 to 3200 hours of bright sunshine in a year and
more than 2000 kWh/m2/year of global solar radiation.

1.2.2 Population Growth & Urbanisation
Gujarat has witnessed a decent growth in its population
in the last 60 years. From a small figure of 16.26 Lacs in
1951, the population was more 6.03 crores in 2011.
Gujarat is now the 10th most populous state of India and
has 5 per cent share of the country's population with a 6
per cent share of geographical area. Gujarat's population
has increased by 97,12,611 during the decade of 2001 to
2011. The urban population has seen a rise from 37.36
per cent in 2001 to 42.58 per cent in 2011, making it one
of the fastest growing urbanised states. In terms of Population, Ahmedabad is the largest
city of Gujarat and Surat and Vadodara are at number two and three. Rajkot is the fourth
largest city . The districts like Bhavnagar, Bhuj, Junagadh and Jamnagar have a high
percentage of urban population. The concentration of population in urban centers exerts
huge pressure on land, air and water quality. Ahmedabad ranks 52nd and Surat 77th in the
list of most populated urban cities in the world.
The broad changes in the state of Gujarat since census 2001 are as follows:

Statutory Town (ST): All places with a municipality, corporation, cantonment board or notified
town area committee etc.
Census Town (CT): Places that satisfy the following criteria are termed as Census Towns.
a)Minimum population of 5000; b) At least 75% of the male main working population engaged in
non-agricultural pursuits; c) A density of population of at least 400 per sq. km.
Population characteristics of Gujarat highlight that three districts of Ahmedabad, Surat
and Vadodara contribute to 29% of the population of Gujarat. Nearly 50% of the state’s
population resides in 7 districts viz. Ahmedabad, Surat, Vadodara, Rajkot, Banaskantha,
Bhavnagar and Junagadh. Surat has the highest decadal growth rate and population
density, though urban population is maximum in Ahmedabad Disrict. It can be noted that
the characteristics of a district depend on the size of urban centers belonging to it.

1.2.3 Urban Heat Islands
The air temperatures in densely built urban
areas are often higher than the temperatures
of the surrounding countryside. The term
“urban heat island” refers to increased surface
temperatures in some pockets of a city, caused
by an ever changing microclimate. The
difference between the maximum city
temperature (measured at the city center) and
the surrounding countryside is the urban heat-
island intensity. The density of the built
environment and the extent of tree cover or vegetation primarily affect the heat-island
intensity. Pollution and heat due to vehicular traffic, industrialisation and human
activities are other contributing factors. The heat released from combustion of fuels also
adds to the ambient temperature of a city.
The hot and still anti-cyclonic weather conditions that are responsible for intense urban
heat island events also produce high air pollution levels. The chemical reactions that
produce ozone and smog are accelerated by high temperatures whilst low wind speeds
ensure that the heat and pollution remains trapped in the city. Climate Variables
affecting Heat Island are temperature, wind speed, solar irradiance & cloud cover,
relative humidity and precipitation.
Very few Heat island studies have been conducted so far and the pressure of Heat Island
in urban India is deliberated only in some conferences, seminars and papers published in
various journals. Remote Sensing and image processing tools are used to analyse the heat
island phenomenon. Detailed studies for Heat Island Intensity of Gujarat cities are not
available. It is likely that Amedabad and Surat may have a high Heat Island Intensity due
to high urbanization, vehicular growth and industrialisation. Vadodara and Rajkot with
their urban expansion and reducing tree cover may also possess moderate Heat Island
Intensity.
1.2.4 Industrialisation
Gujarat has continued to witness impressive
industrial development. Government of Gujarat
while announcing Industrial Policy in 2003 and 2009
had given strong emphasis on making Gujarat based
industries competitive enough to meet with
challenges of globalization. For this purpose
Government also announced various schemes such
as assistance for cleaner technology, upgradation of
technology for manufacturing and environmental
management system, subsidy for R & D activities and interest subsidy to SMES etc. An
important feature of the Industrial Policy is the scheme of cluster development. In the
state, 83 clusters have been identified with a range of industries. They are being
Section I – Pressure
State of Air Environment
Page 11
strengthened with Government assistance in the form of developing common facilities
centers, up gradation of infrastructure, conducting training programmes for skill up
gradation etc. Gujarat Industrial Development Corporation is the agency responsible for
developing industrial estates in the State & industrial units get developed plots/sheds
with all amenities for setting up their units. There are 182 industrial estates spread
throughout the State covering an area of 3200 hectares. Also 60 SEZs have been notified
in the State so far. SIR Act was enacted by the State in 2009 for creating large size
investment regions in the State and to develop these regions as global hubs of economic
activity having world class infrastructure. Eleven such SIRs have been notified so far and
are at various stages of planning and development.
Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor – is an industrial development to be facilitated along
the proposed Dedicated Rail Corridor connecting Delhi to Mumbai covering an overall
length of 1483km.Gujarat contributes a staggering 38% to this proposed corridor with six
investment zones and industrial areas along this corridor.

1.2.5 Power Sector
In Gujarat, private sector contributes 60 % and
public sector contributes 40% to the total
power generation. Power generation is largely
coal based and there is no nuclear power
generation in the state. Thermal Power
including coal, gas and diesel as fuel,
contributes 80% to the total power generation
in the State. Hydro power and renewable
energy contribute 5.30% and 15% respectively.
In Renewable energy, solar energy has a
contribution of 3%, biomass 1% & remaining is wind energy. The installed capacities are
shown in Table 1.10 and 1.11.
Power generation from fossil fuels contribute heavily to the carbon footprint. It is
expressed as grams of CO2 equivalent per kilowatt hour of generation (gCO2eq/kWh). The
carbon footprint of fossil-fuelled power plants is dominant due to emissions during their
operation. Indirect emissions during other life-cycle phases such as raw material
extraction and plant construction are relatively minor. Coal burning power systems have
the largest carbon footprint of all the power generation systems. Generation
technologies based on non-fossil fuel such as wind, solar (photovoltaic), hydro, biomass,
wave/tidal and nuclear power are 'low carbon' or 'carbon neutral' because they do not
emit CO2 during their operation. However, they are not 'carbon free' since CO2 emissions
arise in other phases of their life cycle such as during extraction, construction,
maintenance and decommissioning.
S. No. Source Carbon footprint range (gCO2eq/kWh)
1. Conventional coal combustion systems ~1,000 or more
2. Gas powered electricity generation ~500
3. photovoltaic power systems ~60
4. hydro power schemes with storage ~10-30
5. Run-of-river hydro power schemes ~ 5
6. Onshore and offshore wind plants ~4.8

1.2.6 Mining
Among the air polluting sectors, minerals industry
ranks among the top. The impact of mining on air
starts from exploration phase, increases manifold
during operational phase and may even extend
beyond the mine closure. The fugitive emission is a
common phenomena related to mining, which is
very significant in case of open cast mining as
compared to underground mines. In addition,
waste handling, transportation and its storage also
have high dust potential. The intensity of dust generation in the mine lease area are also
influenced by various factor such as wind speed, hardness of the rock, mining technology,
mode of transportation and level of mechanisation.
Inadequate dust suppression measures and poor mine management practices may,
sometime, also cause widespread impact on local public health and occupational
diseases.

1.2.7 Vehicular Growth
The increasing urbanisation and industrialisation has increased demand for transport.
Public transport systems have not been able to keep pace with the rapid and substantial
increases in demand over past few decades. The urban road chaos is increasing day by
day with ever increasing share of personalized modes especially of two wheelers and four
wheelers. Infrastructure shortages are evident with traffic snarls and grid locks. Bus
services in particular have deteriorated and their relative output has been further
reduced as passengers have turned to personalised modes and intermediate public
transport (such as three-wheelers and taxis). Major Factors contributing to poor air
quality on road are as below:
Congestion
Low speeds on major corridors
Fleet sizes of public transport
Increase in trip lengths due to urban sprawl
Operating buses in congested streets
Increase in purchase power of people
Completely inadequate facilities for cycling

Vehicular air pollution is one of the major contributors to overall air pollution in any area.
The continuous rise in the number of vehicles is adding to the problem. The pollutants in
vehicular pollution like carbon monoxide, sulphur, nitrogen oxide, hydrocarbon, lead,
sulphur dioxide, and particulate matter affect human health and cause diseases like cold,
cough, asthma, headache, cancer etc. The vehicular population in the last decade has
grown from 5576040 to 12993135 (133.02%) in Gujarat. In 2011 major contributor to the
fleet are the two wheelers forming 73.17%, followed by private cars and goods vehicles
as seen in Fig 1.12.
Source: Office of Transport Commissioner
Growth of vehicle fleet in Gujarat from 1961 to 2011 is shown in Table 1.14. In 1961,
there were maximum number of private cars (36.84%) followed by goods vehicles
(25.76%). Two wheelers formed only 18.81% of total vehicular population. The
percentage of two wheelers was 73.17% in 2011, private cars formed 9.37% and good
vehicles only 5.22%. Proportion of other categories of vehicles has almost remained
same. Passenger vehicles in 2011 contribute only 0.65% to the total number. In Table

1.2.10 Indoor Air Pollution
A considerable amount of air pollution results
from burning of fossil fuels. The household
sector is the second largest consumer of
energy in India after the industrial sector.
National Family Health Survey-3 (NFHS-3)
found that 71% of India's households use solid
fuels for cooking whereas this figure is 91 %
for rural households. According to the same
survey, more than 60% of Indian households
depend on traditional sources of energy like
fuel-wood, dung and crop residue for meeting their cooking and heating needs. Burning
of traditional fuels produces large quantities of CO2 in the atmosphere, but if there is an
incomplete combustion followed by oxidation, CO is produced in addition to
hydrocarbons. ‘Sick Building Syndrome’ is a growing concern worldwide. Smoke from
solid cooking fuels such as wood, charcoal, and animal dung leads to a range of serious
health problems including respiratory infections, low birth weight, and eye problems.
Prevalence of TB can be associated to type of house and main cooking fuel.

As the surveys suggest, Gujarat still has 77.30% rural population using unprocessed solid
fuel. The improvement in 5 years from NFHS- 2 and NFHS -3 is marginal and usage of
unprocessed fuel is reduced only by 4.7 % in rural areas. For a progressive state like
Gujarat having abundant natural resources, this is an alarming figure. It indicates lack of
implementation of national plans at the grass root level.

An inventory of air pollutants is a necessary step towards control of air pollution. Central
Pollution Control Board is executing a nation-wide programme of ambient air quality
monitoring known as National Air Quality Monitoring Programme (NAMP). In Gujarat there
are 19 NAMP stations. GPCB, on behalf of State government also monitors air quality at
another 25 stations under State Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Programme (SAMP). There
are another set of stations where air monitoring is done only once in a year. HC and CO are
also monitored at three stations in Vadodara - CETP Nandesari, RO GPCB and Dandiya Bazar.
Fig 2.1: Air Quality Monitoring Stations in Gujarat

Based on the annual mean concentration in microgram per cubic metre of ambient air
(μg/m3); levels of SO2, NO2, SPM have been described as Low (L), Moderate (M), High (H)
and Critical (C) for various regions such as Industrial (I), Residential and mixed use (R) areas
as per the classification shown in Tables 2.1.

Note: Classification is based on the ambient air quality standards which were applicable
before 18th Nov 2009. The data presented for SO2, NOx, SPM, RSPM for the period 2006 to
Dec 2010 uses this classification as the monitoring of new parameters was not initiated in
the State. All the monitoring stations are classified into residential or industrial depending
upon their characteristics.

The trends for a few residential and industrial areas in Ahmedabad are graphically shown
below. The values are compared with annual standards though we don’t have annual
average for this parameter as the monitoring was started recently. PM2.5 is higher in winter
months and lower in monsoon months. The calmer conditions in winter facilitate more
stability to atmosphere and consequently reduce dispersion of pollutants generated and
help in build up of pollutants in proximity of pollutant sources. Lower average mixing height
in winter season results in less volume of troposphere available for mixing and results in
higher SPM concentrations.

2.10 Monitoring of VOCs
VOCs are organic compounds with boiling points between 500C to 2600C and vapour
pressure equal to or more than 0.01 kPa at 250C. The term encompasses a very large and
diverse group of carbon containing compounds including aliphatic, aromatic and
halogenated hydrocarbons, aldehydes, esters, acids, alcohols, ketones and others. The
sources of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are numerous and broadly they can be
divided into:
1. Natural (forests, termites, wetlands and tundras)
2. Anthropogenic (industrial namely manufacturing of paints, varnishes, solvents, chemical,
fertilizers and petroleum refining and processing, fossil fuel combustion in
transportation and electricity generation, landfills and waste treatment plants, and
household products)
Monitoring of VOCs has been initiated by GPCB for 25 industrial clusters in Gujarat. List of
these clusters is shown in following table and location map is shown in Fig 2.11.

Monitoring is carried out fortnightly for these 25 clusters. Standard for annual average for
VOCs is 5 ug/m3. Details for compounds within VOC for each station can be referred to in
Annexure III. The following graphs shows the level of benzene in certain clusters where they
have been found to be consistently higher. Please note that the values are not annual
averages as VOC monitoring is a recent initiative by GPCB and annual averages were not
available whereas standard is for annual average.
Another interesting observation is that concentration of Benzo-a-pyrene is less than 0.5
ng/m3 in all clusters whereas standard for this is 01 ng/m3. Trends for benzene at select
clusters are depicted in Fig 2.12 to Fig 2.17.

Note: The noise levels are not monitored by GPCB on regular basis. This exercise is carried out
only during Navratri and Diwali festivals. The number of noise monitoring done by each RO
during these festivals is presented in following table. For getting the values, one can refer to
the GPCB Annual Reports for these years.

The ambient noise levels in Gujarat during the monitoring period at all time are above
specified ambient noise standards. The fire cracker bursting and traffic are two important
contributors of ambient noise. Residential areas are affected significantly by higher noise
levels. The emission of smoke arising out of bursting of fire crackers add to increased levels
of air pollution, particularly in terms of Nitrogen Oxides (NOx), SPM and Respiratory
Suspended Particulate Matter.

2.12 Odour Monitoring
Most commonly reported odour-producing compounds are hydrogen sulfide (rotten egg
odour) and ammonia (sharp pungent odour). Carbon disulfide, mercaptans, product of
decomposition of proteins (especially of animal origin) phenols and some petroleum
hydrocarbons are other common odorants. Most offensive odour is created by the
anaerobic decay of wet organic matter such as flesh, manure etc. For example, odour
originating from livestock manure is a result of a broad range of over 168 odour producing
compounds. Warm temperature enhances anaerobic decay and foul odour production.
Odour can arise from many sources and most of the sources are man-made. Garbage
dumping on vacant land is a common phenomenon. It leads to foul smell due to putrefaction
of dumped garbage, which lies uncollected for days together. Unscientific design of landfill &
improper sewage treatment practices produce unpleasant odour. Industries such as Pulp &
Paper, Fertilizer, Pesticides, Tanneries, Sugar & Distillery, Chemical, Dye & Dye
Intermediates, Bulk Drugs & Pharmaceuticals, Large Livestock operations, Poultry Farms,
Slaughter Houses, Food and Meat processing industries and Bone Mills are among major
contributors to odour pollution. Agricultural activities like decaying of vegetation,
production and application of compost etc. also contribute to odour pollution. In urban
areas, improper handling of public amenities like toilets of cinema hall, bus / railway
stations, hospitals, shopping complex etc. generate pungent odour, which affects the users
as well as neighbourhood residents. Congested markets do not allow the escape of odour
from markets, thus causing problems to shop-owners and customers. Vehicular sector also
has its share in odour pollution. Rapidly growing vehicular population as well as pollutants
emitted by them generate harmful and pungent odour.
Measurement of Odour Pollution
Of the five senses, the sense of smell is the most complex and unique in structure and
organization. Sense of smell is accomplished with two main nerves. The olfactometry nerve
(first cranial nerve) processes the perception of chemicals. The trigeminal nerve (fifth cranial
nerve) processes the irritation or pungency (sensation) of chemicals. All olfactory signals
meet in the olfactory bulb where the information is distributed to two different parts of the
brain. One major pathway of information is to the limbic system which processes emotion
and memory response of the body. The second major information pathway is to the frontal
cortex. This is where conscious sensations take place, as the information is processed with
other sensations and is compared with accumulated life experiences for the individual to
possibly recognize the odour and make some decisions about the experiences. The entire
trip, from nostril to signal in the brain, takes as little as 500 milliseconds.
In India, Schedule II and Schedule VI (General standards for discharge of effluents) under
Environmental (Protection) Rules, 1986 prescribe that all efforts shall be made to remove
unpleasant odour as far as practicable. Nonetheless, there are only two industries, wherein
industry specific standards under Schedule I of these Rules have made odour removal
compulsory. These are the fermentation industries and the natural rubber industries. The
standards for many other major odour pollution causing industries such as pulp and paper
Section II – State
State of Air Environment
Page 67
mills, tanneries, meat processing industries, bulk drug and pharmaceutical units, food and
fruit processing units, dairies and milk plants etc. do not specify odour control.
However, several countries such as Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Japan,
New Zealand, The Netherlands, United Kindom, United States have developed and adopted
Legislations for measurement of odour. The EN 13725 was released in year 2003 and now EN
13725 unifies the odour sampling and testing standards of 18 countries (Austria, Belgium,
Denmark, Finland, France, Greece, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg,
Netherlands,Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom). Also
EN 13725 follows ISO 9000 quality assurance and scientific testing protocols. The new
European standard EN 13725 has been adopted by Australia and New Zealand as AS / NZS
4323:3:2001 (AS, 2001).
2.13 Hot Spots
Major contributors to air pollution are Population, industries and Vehicles. Table 2.15 shows
that districts of Ahmedabad, Surat, Vadodara and Rajkot alone form 35% population and
54% of vehicles in the state in 2011. Percentage of the population from these districts has
almost remained the same over the last decade (34.77% in 2001) but percentage
contribution of vehicles has reduced (55.87% in 2001). Districts of Tapi, Porbandar, Narmada
and The Dangs contribute least to the population as well as vehicles in Gujarat.

Rate of urbanisation and industrialization leading to growth of vehicles make cities
Ahmedabad, Surat, Vadodara and Rajkot the hot spots for air pollution. The density of
population and vehicles is also highest in these urban centres. Surat leads followed by
Ahmedabad, Anand and Gandhinagar districts respectively for density of population. The
districts have grown differently in last decade with highest growth in Surat followed by
Kachchh, Dahod, Banaskantha and Ahmedabad. The Dangs district which has 89 % rural
population follows Ahmedabad with 84% urban population in decadal growth. According to
the pressure due to air polluting industries, Rajkot has maximum API followed by
Ahmedabad, Gandhinagar, Valsad, Vadodara and Surat.
If we look into the industrial clusters, the values of SO2, NOx, SPM and RSPM do not cross
the critical levels in general. However, if we consider benzene, then industrial areas of
Naroda, Vatva, Pandesara, Ankleshwar, Panoli and Dahej exhibit continuously higher values.
Section III – Impact
State of Air Environment
Page 73
SECTION III - IMPACT
The United Nations Environment Programme has estimated that globally 1.1 billion
people breathe unhealthy air (UNEP, 2002). Epidemiological studies have shown that
concentrations of ambient air particles are associated with a wide range of effects on
human health, especially on the cardio-respiratory system. Beyond its human health
impacts, air pollution is also detrimental to ecosystems. Through direct exposure and
accumulation, reactive compounds negatively impact plant growth and are primary
contributors to acid rain, which can diminish fish stocks, decrease biological diversity in
sensitive ecosystems, degrade forests and soils, and diminish agricultural productivity. Air
pollution is also known to have damaging effect on non living materials in the form of
corrosion of metal, soiling and eroding of building surfaces etc. People with low immune
systems, those suffering from other diseases, children, the aged, and people with lung
diseases are the people who suffer more. There is no dependable database to track these
disease and death rates so it is difficult to produce scientific evidence.
3.1 Economic Impacts
Improvement of air quality is associated with reduction in the number of premature
deaths, episodes of acute illness such as asthma attacks and the number of chronic
respiratory illness cases. Economic value of an illness episode is quantified as:
The value of work time lost due to the illness by the patient or the caregiver, or
both
The medical cost of treatment
The amount paid to avoid the pain and suffering associated with the illness, and
The value of leisure time lost due to the illness by the patient or caregiver.
Not many studies have been conducted to estimate the economic loss due to
effect of air pollution on materials. Depreciation in property value occurs near
odour causing operations/ industries and odorous environment.
3.2 Health Impacts
Several epidemiological studies have established a direct relationship between the
pollutants and health hazards ranging from morbidity (illness) to mortality (death from
illness).The health impacts of various air pollutants are summarized in Table 3.1.

3.2.1 Health Impacts due to Indoor Air Pollution
A number of studies have been carried out to address the health effects of use of various
fuels. Exposure to combustion products from solid fuels has been considered an
important cause of several diseases, including acute respiratory infections, chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease, and cancer of the lung, nasopharynx, and larynx. Biomass
and coal smoke contain a large number of pollutants, including particulate matter,
carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur oxides, formaldehyde, polycyclic organic
compounds, and metals, such as arsenic. Smoky coal has been found to be more
carcinogenic than cleaner coal and wood smoke when tested on mouse skin. There is
growing evidence that exposure to indoor smoke can cause serious respiratory and other
adverse health effects which may include Acute Respiratory Infections (ARI) in children
and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or chronic bronchitis in women.
Studies show risks for acute respiratory infections (ARI), COPD, and lung cancer.
Tuberculosis (TB), asthma, and blindness may also be caused due the long exposures.

3.2.2 Health Impacts due to Mining
The generation of fugitive dust during mining activities is a serious concern. It not only
causes direct impact on the health of the workers and community, but also affects the
land productivity and general well being of a region. The incidence of respiratory and
ophthalmic illness is far more acute in mining workers, whose workplaces are choked
with dust. In addition to pneumoconiosis and bronchitis, coal miners also experiences
various other diseases such as black lung diseases like sever dyspnea (shortness of
breath) and air ways obstruction. Tuberculosis, blood dysentery and seasonal fevers are
quite common. The common ailments associated with mining sector include
Respiratory diseases: Pneumoconiosis including silicosis and asbestosis
bronchitis, asthma, tuberculosis
Eye ailments: cataract, conjunctivitis, corneal ulcers, glaucoma and squint
trachoma
3.2.3 Health Impacts due to Noise Pollution
Often neglected, noise induces a severe impact on humans and on living organisms.
Some of the adverse effects are summarised below.
Annoyance It creates annoyance to the receptors due to sound level fluctuations.
Physiological effects The physiological features like breathing amplitude, blood pressure,
heart-beat rate, pulse rate, blood cholesterol are effected.
Loss of hearing Long exposure to high sound levels cause loss of hearing. This is mostly
unnoticed, but has an adverse impact on hearing function.
Human performance The working performance of workers/human will be affected as they'll
be losing their concentration.
Nervous system It causes pain, ringing in the ears, feeling of tiredness, thereby

According to World Health Organization, Household Air Pollution from Solid Fuels ranks
1st and Pollution from other sources ranks 6th in the top 10 risk factors for diseases in
2010 in Asia (mainly India). Indoor Air Pollution was claiming 5,00,000 lives in India every
year, most of whom were women and children. India accounted for 80% of the 6,00,000
premature deaths that occur in south east Asia annually due to exposure to Indoor Air
Pollution. Nearly 70% of rural households don’t even have ventilation. WHO has
estimated that pollution levels in rural Indian kitchens are 30 times higher than
recommended levels and 6 times higher than air pollution level.

3.2.4 Health Impacts due to Heat Islands
Hot weather places additional stress on the body, raising health risks for the vulnerable
and increasing discomfort for everyone. During extreme weather events such as heat
waves, the urban heat island has the potential to prevent the city from cooling down,
maintaining night time temperatures at a level that affects human health and comfort.
The consequences for the health can be severe with increased chances of heat stroke,
physiological disruption, organ damage, and even death.
3.2.5 Health Impacts due to Odour
Odour affects human beings in a number of ways. Strong, unpleasant or offensive smells
can interfere with a person’s enjoyment of life especially if they are frequent and / or
persistent. Though foul odour may not cause direct damage to health, toxic stimulants of
odour may cause ill health or respiratory symptoms. Secondary effects may be nausea,
insomnia and discomfort. Very strong odour can result in nasal irritation, trigger
symptoms in individuals with breathing problems or asthma.
3.3 Other Impacts
Mining also has impact on climate change due to release of methane gas from the
coal seams. On an average, Indian open cast coal mine release 1 m3 of methane per
ton of coal, whereas in underground mine, methane release varies from 1 to 23
m3/ton of coal produced.
The buildings and materials may get damaged by exposure to infrasonic / ultrasonic
waves and even get collapsed.
Evapo-transpiration rates will also be enhanced by high urban temperatures and
plants & trees will potentially extract water from the soil at greater rates than
normal.
Plant growth is inhibited due to reduction in photosynthesis as the layers of
particulates deposit on the leaves.

policemen.
Lung Function tests conducted on the traffic police men confirmed that 45 % of the
policemen tested were suffering from breathing and other respiratory problems. Some of
them have been found to have definite abnormalities.
3.4.3 Health Impacts of Air Pollution in Ahmedabad
A medical study was conducted by National Institute of Occupational Health (NIOH) in
2003 in three different areas of Ahmedabad, viz. Residential area (L.D.Engg. College),
Commercial area (Nehru Bridge), Industrial area (Naroda). Distribution of percentage

The study showed that symptoms like cough, breathlessness while walking,
haemoptysis have been more in industrial area. Asthma, Tuberculosis and chronic
bronchitis were also higher in industrial area. Wheezing has been significantly
higher in industrial area.
The medical data from the different hospitals from Ahmedabad were also collected;
however correct database regarding disease pattern due to air pollution was not
available. Amongst air borne disease pattern, maximum cases of T.B. were reported
in 1997 to 2003. While cases of Pneumonia, Diphtheria and Measles were
comparatively less reported. High RSPM levels probably enhance chest disease
pattern.

3.4.4 Disease Pattern Related to Air Pollution
The following table presents the number of reported cases of diseases in Gujarat which
can be linked to air pollution. Though we do not have any study which directly links these
cases to air pollution; this is an indicative pattern. The numbers of cases reported for
Cardio Vascular Diseases, Cancer and Pulmonary Pneumonia have substantially increased
in the last five years. Though the number of cases reported in whooping cough is very
nominal the trend of increased patients in last five years is observed. Numbers of cases
reported in lung diseases have also doubled.

Box 3.2: Effect of Air Pollution on Human Health (adults) in Delhi
In order to determine health effects of air pollution, CPCB initiated an Epidemiological Study
in Delhi with the help of Chittaranjan National Cancer Institute, Kolkata. The study was
carried out during November 2002 and August 2005 in various parts of Delhi and in different
seasons and the report was published in 2008. The study findings had shown that 33.2%
residents of Delhi had one or more respiratory symptoms as compared to 19.6% of control
subjects. Lung function was reduced in 40.3% individuals of Delhi compared with 20.1% in
control group. Lung function reduction was more prevalent in women than in men both in
rural and urban settings. People from lower SES had greater prevalence of lung function
deficits. Besides gender, smoking habit, Body mass index and Socio economic status,
particulate air pollution was positively associated with lung function deficits. hronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) was detected in 3.9% residents of Delhi against 0.8%
of controls.

SECTION IV - RESPONSE
Efforts have been made by various stakeholders to abate air pollution from different sources. These efforts are being made by national & state agencies and individuals to adopt strategies that can reduce the impacts due to air pollution. Government of India had enacted the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act 1981 to arrest the deterioration in the air quality. The efforts by various stakeholders can be categorized into three main categories:
1. At National Level
2. At State Level
3. At Individual Level
A set of initiatives have been taken under all the three categories. These are discussed in
detail in the following paragraphs.
4.1 At National Level
The Central Government enjoys the powers to make Acts, Rules, Regulations, Norms and
Standards for the purpose of protecting the environment. The State Government agencies
are mainly enforcing agencies. The State agencies normally adopt these standards or make
them stringent where they would like to prevent the air pollution and improve upon the air
quality.
4.1.1 Ambient Air Quality Norms
Standards are a pre-requisite for effective management of ambient air quality. The
objectives of air quality standards are:
• To indicate the levels of air quality necessary with an adequate margin of safety to
protect the public health, vegetation and property
• To assist in establishing priorities for abatement and control of pollutant level
• To provide uniform yardstick for assessing air quality at national level
• To indicate the need and extent of monitoring programme
The Central Pollution Control Board introduced Ambient Air Quality Standards on November
11, 1982 as per section 16 (2) (h) of the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981.
The air quality standards have been revised by the Central Pollution Control Board on April
11, 1994. These have been further made stringent by notification dated 18th Nov 2009.
These standards are presented in following tables.

4.1.2 Preparation of Zoning Atlas
The "Zoning Atlas" programme covering various spatial environmental planning activities has
been conceived as a tool for protection of the environmental resources and for achieving
developmental targets in an environmentally sound manner. “Zoning Atlas for Siting of
Industries” zones and classifies the environment and presents the pollution receiving
potential of various sites/zones in the State. It identifies the possible alternate sites for
industries, through easy-to-read maps. For Gujarat, interactive GIS based Zoning Atlas
prepared at taluka level along with revenue map is ready for utilisation. Its incorporation in
the State Industrial Policy can result in optimization of pollution abatement. Pollution
Control Board can use it as a ready reckoner for granting No Objection Certificates.
In continuation of the Zoning Atlas studies, the Industrial Estate Planning (IEP) studies have
been taken up at micro-level by GPCB to identify environmentally acceptable sites for
industrial estates, to suggest wastewater disposal points and to provide suggestions on
control of surrounding land uses. More IEP studies will be helpful to the Industrial
Development Corporation and the Industries Departments to properly locate the industrial
estates and provide the needed pollution abatement infrastructure.
4.1.3 Improved Vehicle Emission Norms
In 1991 and 1994, the European Environment council and European Commission regulated
the permissible pollution limit for vehicles within the European Union. Standards were set
for the amount of carbon monoxide (CO), oxides of nitrogen (NOx), hydrocarbon (CO) and
particulate matter a vehicle could emit. These emission norms are known as Euro I. These
were followed by stricter Euro II norms in 1998 and so on. In India, the first emission norms
came into force for petrol and diesel vehicles in 1991 which were further made stricter over
time. Euro I norms were introduced in India – in the National Capital Region (NCR) Delhi in
1999. India introduced its similar vehicle emission norms series to Euro norms known as
Bharat Stage norms. Currently the country is following Bharat Stage IV norms. All the vehicle
manufacturers need to implement these standards for the vehicles being manufactured by
them. The details of permissible vehicular emissions under various norms are given in
following tables:

Ministry of environment and Forest in close association with Ministry of Petroleum and
Natural Gas explored possibilities of improvement in fuel quality which lead to emission
reductions. Gradual improvements have been made to increase the cetane number and
reduce the percentage content of sulphur, lead, benzene etc. The details of gradual
improvement in fuel quality over time is detailed out in Table 4.4.

4.2 At State Level
4.2.1 Air Action Plans
The Honorable Supreme Court of India, in the matter of CWP No. 13029 of 1995, passed the
orders on 05.04.2001, regarding formulation and implementation of action plans for control
of pollution in cities which do not meet the ambient air quality standards. EPCA popularly
known as Bhurelal Committee was set up by Honourable Supreme Court of India under
Environment Protection Act. Initially this was set up for addressing the air pollution problem
in Delhi alone. Later on sixteen other cities were added which included Agra, Ahmedabad,
Bangalore, Chennai, Faridabad, Hyderabad, Jharia, Jodhpur, Kanpur, Kolkata, Lucknow,
Mumbai, Patna, Pune, Solapur and Varanasi. Meanwhile Central Pollution Control Board
(CPCB) under the advice of Government of India also identified other cities and towns which
suffer from Air Pollution. In all, 85 cities and towns are monitored periodically by CPCB.
In addition to Ahmedabad, the other cities of Gujarat which appear in this list are – Vapi,
Surat, Ankleshwar, Vadodara, Rajkot and Jamnagar. Air Action Plans were prepared for these
cities. An action plan presents the prioritized list of abatement and other measures to
improve air quality, and to maintain it within pre-described levels in the short and medium
term. It outlines the steps required to implement a full air quality management system in
any given city, consistent with the city’s circumstances, capabilities and needs.
Section IV – Response

Ahmedabad is being monitored by a Task Force headed by the Chief Secretary of Gujarat.
District level Task Force headed by Collector was set up for coordination and
implementation of Action Plans for other cities.
The rank of Ahmedabad improved from 4th in year 2001 to 13th in year 2005, 43rd in year
2006 and 66th in year 2008.
4.2.2 Monitoring of Industries
Gujarat Pollution Control Board is the prime agency involved in the monitoring of air
pollution or any other form of pollution in the State. The regulatory body through its
network of 22 Regional Offices and 4 Vigilance offices monitors the polluting industries in
the state. The individual industries are required to install air pollution control equipment for
the control of emissions of emissions of particulate matter(PM), sulphur dioxide (SO2),
ammonia (NH3), chlorine (CL2), hydrogen sulphide (H2S) etc. Fig4.1 shows the number of
samples collected and analysed from industrial units each year by GPCB. These samples are
collected from various plants of thermal power, bulk drugs, pesticides, chemicals, fertilizers,
petrochemicals, oil refineries etc. Actions are taken against the defaulting industries under
the provisions of Air (Prevention & Control of Pollution) Act 1981.

4.2.3 Roping in Technical Institutes to Control Air Pollution
A Case of Narol Area- Ahmedabad
Narol earlier used to be on the outskirt of Ahmedabad city but with the expansion of urban
area, it has now become a link between developed city area and developing peripheral area.
At present, it is a mixed urban zone consisting of commercial activities, residential area and
industrial activities housing more than 200 industries belonging to mainly textile processing
sector along with few dyes and chemicals manufacturing industries.
These industries have high Air pollution potential in terms of Flue gas emission from their
boilers or thermic fluid heat heaters due to use of Coal, Lignite, Saw dust, Wood etc. Each
unit is required to install and operate the Air Pollution Control Device (APCD) and a chimney
for the better dispersion of the flue gas. Air pollution problem in the region is due to mainly
two reasons: (i) Design lacunae (ii) Operational problems. Technical institute like L D College
of Engineering, Ahmedabad were roped in by GPCB for the design modification and checking
of the adequacy of the existing APCD of each individual textile unit. The exercise will include
study of the existing APCD, operational aspects of the existing system, design improvement
in existing system, alternate modes of APCDs etc. The whole exercise will be completed in

GPCB has initiated a pilot project to have a constant watch on 89 chimneys in Narol area of
Ahmedabad with the help of close circuit TVs. Mostly textile processing units are located in
this area. 57 CCTVs will record emissions coming out from these chimneys. The footage of
these cameras can be viewed in the office itself. Recordings can be made of chimneys
emitting seemingly higher pollution levels. Detailed sampling of these units can be then
carried out of these units. Notices can then be issued to the polluting units.

next three months and up-gradation of the existing APCD will be carried out by the unit in
time bound manner. The Board will co-ordinate with Ahmedabad Textile Printing Association
to finish the project in time. The study is in its advance stage and the institute has made
some observations for the technical interventions. This will help to reduce the air pollution
problem of the area.
A Case of Vatva- Ahmedabad
Spray drying is the process in dye manufacturing in which liquid slurry is converted in to the
powder form. This is done by the Spray dryer in which hot gases mix get mixed with slurry
and converts it into the fine powder. This process has air pollution potential in terms of fine
particles which escape into the atmosphere. Vatva industrial estate of Ahmedabad is a hub
of such dye manufacturing and has significance presence of such spray dryers. For the
effective pollution control from such spray drying equipments, GPCB in co-ordination with
the Vatva Green Environment Society Limited roped in DDIT-Nadiad for in depth study of
each of such unit & thorough inspection of the APCD of spray dryer from the design point of
view and preparation of the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for operation and
maintenance of the equipment. The DDIT carried out the study and suggested some
technical inputs for better management and control of APCD to reduce the air pollution.
Suggestions like installation of the pressure gauge, regulation of the RPM of ID fan, Nozzle
cleaning of wet scrubber, Re-circulation rate regulation of the scrubbing media has improved
the efficiency of the APCD and resulted in improvement in the emission quality.
4.2.4 Strengthening of PUC Stations
The process of setting up PUC centers in the state had started since 13/12/1994.Since April
2005, new norms have been made applicable for PUC centers. The existing centers were
asked to upgrade and re-register with RTO. The new PUC centers were to issue
computerized photo PUC certificates. It was made compulsory for PUC centers which test
petrol vehicles to have 4 Gas analysers (CO, HC, CO2, O2) as concentration of CO and HC
emitted is so small that it cannot be measured by two gas analyzer. The density of smoke
emitted by diesel vehicles was to be measured by Smoke meters. The district wise details of
PUC centers in Gujarat is shown in Tab4.5.

Bus Rapid Transit System (BRTS)
In the light of the current problems of public transportation and with the objective to
promote and enhance regional mobility and serve public by providing quality transit services
and solutions that improve the overall quality of life of the residents of Ahmedabad, the
Government of Gujarat with respective authorities (AMC, AUDA and GIDB) is building Bus
Rapid Transit System (BRTS) at various corridors. The Ahmedabad BRTS was officially named
as “Janmarg”, which means “people's way” - a street that would carry the citizens of
Ahmedabad in safety, comfort and at high speeds.
BRTS network was created based on passenger studies, road inventory, road infrastructure
attributes, existing land use and future development plans. The current BRT network
connects the important origins and destination points plus the transit interchanges such as
railway stations, regional bus terminals, University areas, industrial areas such as Narol,
Naroda; residential and commercial hubs and recreational public spaces such as Kankaria
Lake. BRTS network is planned in four phases and currently 45 Km of the BRTS corridor is
operational and another 43 Km is under construction.

4.2.9 Promoting Renewable Energy
Gujarat Government in form of Gujarat Energy Development Agency promoted various
sources of renewable energy in the state. Number of projects have been under taken in
Solar Energy, Wind Energy, Bio Energy, Energy Conservation and education. The biggest
achievement has been development of Gujarat Solar Park, Charanka-Patan which hosts
about 17 different projects by different developers. It also became the world's largest
photovoltaic power station. This Solar Park will host 600 MW of solar power projects using
state-of-the-art thin film technology. 600 MW of solar panels will save around 8 million
tonnes of carbon dioxide from being released into the atmosphere and save around
900,000 tonnes of coal and natural gas per year.
4.3 At Individual Level
4.3.1 Conversion of Vehicles to Cleaner Fuel (CNG/LPG)
A large number of vehicles in Gujarat have converted to cleaner fuel. The drivers to this
change are mainly economics but they do have an impact on air quality as CNG/LPG is
considered to be cleaner than petrol/diesel. This change is supported by the availability of
gas grid in Gujarat and the presence of CNG/LPG retail outlets in major cities.

Vehicles to Cleaner Fuel in Ahmedabad
Ahmedabad has seen a surge of vehicles converting to cleaner fuel ie CNG/LPG. The reason
for conversion for private vehicles is more to do with economics benefits but nevertheless, it
does lead to reduction in air pollution. The public vehicles are converting to cleaner fuel due
to government initiatives.

Section V –Recommendations
State of Air Environment
Page 96
SECTION V - RECOMMENDATIONS
For improved air quality, there is a need to involve all stake holders - government agencies,
NGOS, academic institutions, R & D organisations and public. State of art air quality
monitoring equipments, modeling techniques, meteorological data, source apportionment
studies and regular health surveys are a prerequisite to pragmatic policy interventions.
5.1 Need to Extend Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Programme
Most of the ambient air quality monitoring stations measuring annual averages are
located in the golden corridor. Only 09 districts are covered by them. There is a need to
spread this network to remaining districts in Gujarat to start building temporal data.
More stations are needed particularly in hot spots where the vehicular and industrial
emissions are high.
Potential air pollutants in ambient air namely Volatile organic compounds and polycyclic
aromatic hydrocarbons should be monitored regularly in order to minimize their
emissions to protect public health. Currently these are being monitored only in industrial
clusters. A need is there to extend this to major traffic junctions in the major urban
centers as vehicular traffic is a major contributor to these VOCs.
Annual averages are measured only for four parameters namely SO2, NOX, SPM and
RSPM. Twelve parameters are now notified under the Ambient Air Quality norms since
18th Nov 2009. There is an urgent need to extend the parameters being monitored. The
collected air quality data should be comprehensively and statistically analyzed to get an
insight into temporal and spatial trends.
The performance of existing stations needs to be overhauled for strict quality control.
Also there is a need for relocation of monitoring equipment at some locations to have
data indicating actual ambient air quality status.
5.2 Source Apportionment Studies
Source Apportionment Studies for ambient air quality attributing contribution of various
sources of air pollutants have not been initiated in Gujarat. Such studies when
undertaken periodically will highlight the impact of policy interventions for improvement
of air quality.
Section V –Recommendations
State of Air Environment
Page 97
5.3 Health Impact Studies
Data on health effects of air pollution from Indian cities is minimal and investigation on
the health effects of chronic, long-term exposures to ambient air pollution is almost
absent. It is important to undertake health impact studies to know the effect of specific
air pollutants on public health.
Collaboration of impact analysis on health with air monitoring data and various research
and development initiatives will improve policy interventions for air quality.
There is utmost requirement to collect better and systematic information about actual
exposure levels experienced by households and develop a model for predicting the
exposure levels based on fuel use and other household data (exposure atlas). Effective
tackling of indoor air pollution also requires collaboration and commitment between
agencies responsible for health, energy, environment, housing and rural development.
5.4 Pollution Control from Vehicles
Traffic mode characteristics show that trips by Public Transport are only 8.97% in 2007
for Ahmedabad. For other cities, this data was not available. For cities like Ahmedabad,
this percentage is very low and should have been more than 20% as per the study on
‘Traffic & Transportation Policies and Strategies in Urban Areas in India, 2008’,
conducted by Ministry Of Urban Development, New Delhi. Therefore, there is a need to
strengthen Mass Transportation in cities.
Diesel exhausts contain fine and ultrafine particles that are very harmful particularly for
children. School buses and other vehicles used for transportation of the school children
everywhere in the country should be changed from diesel to cleaner fuel like CNG or
LPG.
The State Government needs to make necessary amendments to Motor Vehicles Act, to
enable spot checking of vehicles and levy fines on owners, who fail to pass tests for
carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and lead emissions. Regulation to restrict the
registration of two-stroke motored vehicles and movements of diesel transport vehicles
in major cities could also be initiated.
Improvement in traffic management system to relieve congestion is urgently called for
by linking the bylanes and introducing parallel road system.
Congested areas should be designated as ‘Pedestrian Streets’ during peak periods.
Parking should be allowed only in designated parking areas at nodal points.
Section V –Recommendations
State of Air Environment
Page 98
5.5 Regulatory Agencies
There are multiple contributors to air pollution like vehicles, industries, fuel burning etc.
Therefore control strategies require active co-operation among all the concerned
agencies and require developing some common platform where they can plan strategies
and programmes to prevent and control air pollution.
Suitability of a new industry or industrial estate with environment can be assessed by
using the Zoning Atlas for Gujarat which provides a taluka level GIS based interactive
approach for site suitability. This is based on pollution potential of an industry taking
into account its effect on Land, Air, Water and Environmentally Sensitive Zones.
Integration of local policies for air, water, soil and waste in cities will lead to better
environmental quality.
Staggering of holidays and workdays for business establishments, rescheduling of
timings of schools and cinema theatres in different parts of the cities may be
implemented.
5.6 Awareness Programmes
Accelerating the national programmes for dissemination of solar cookers and improved
fuel wood stoves suited to local cooking practices and biomass resources can help in
preventing health impacts from indoor air pollution.
Encouraging public to walk or use bicycles for traveling short distances and to share
vehicles for long distances will help in controlling vehicular air pollution. The individual
level action that can be initiated to minimise pollution from vehicles should also be
popularised.
City and land use pattern should encourage designing and redevelopment of
communities to promote mass transit, carpooling, pedestrian walkways, and bicycle use.
Saving the existing trees and planting more trees wherever possible will help in
controlling air pollution.
A mass awareness campaign should be carried out on air pollution and its impact on our
health.
