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

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

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

Hydro carbons Vehicles, fossil fuel burning

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

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

7. Onshore and offshore wind plants ~5.5

8. Nuclear power generation ~5

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.

Figure 1.11 shows the mining areas in Gujarat. District wise distribution of mining areas in

the State is shown in Table 1.13. According to the Map, mining covers only 0.033% of the

total state area. Kachchh with 28.18 km2 has maximum area under mining in the state.

But mining contributes only 0.062% to landuse of the total district area. Sabarkantha has

highest percentage in landuse under mining (0.115%). 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.

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

1.14, actual numbers of private cars, taxi cabs, jeeps, autorickshaws, tractors, trailors and

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.

SECTION II - STATE

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.

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

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.

Section III – Impact

State of Air Environment

Page 74

Table: 3.1: Air Pollutants & their Health Impacts

Air Pollutants Respiratory diseases

Particulates Acute respiratory infections, asthma, bronchitis, pneumonia, skin diseases, chronic conjunctivitis

SO2 Irritates respiratory system, causes bronchitis

NOx Burning of eyes, nose etc, severe irritation of respiratory system, influenza

CO Deprive body cell of oxygen, causes unconsciousness

HC Affects central nervous system

O3 Eye irritation, pulmonary congestion, edema, hemorrhage

Chlorine Severe lung irritation, irritates the eye

H2S Respiratory paralysis, causes immediate unconsciousness

Ammonia Skin and respiratory tract irritation

Asbestos Lung cancer

Lead Brain damage, muscular paralysis, convulsions

PAHs Lung cancer

VOCs Cancer, affects central nervous system, respiratory track irritation

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.

Box 3.1: WHO Study on Indoor Air Pollution

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

affecting the functioning of human system.

Sleeplessness It affects the sleeping thereby inducing the people to become restless

and suffer from lose of concentration.

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.

Section III – Impact

State of Air Environment

Page 76

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.

The survey was conducted to find pulmonary problems like Chronic Obstructive

Pulmonary Diseases (COPD), asthma, pulmonary fibrosis and cystic fibrosis in traffic

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

morbidity is as follows:

Observations of NIOH

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:

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.

4.3.1 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 - Recommendation

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.
