‘Standard Operating Procedure fr utilation
‘This SOP is applicable only for ulation of ETP sludge generated from primary and
secondary clair units of fven Treatment Plant 38a supplementary energy resource in
FOC /PFBCICFRC bol.
(1) The dewatered primary ETP Sludge & Secondary Sludge (wth moisture not more
than 40 %) generated from ks own Efuent treatment Plant shall be colacted and
stored in pits under covered storage sheds within premises, so ast eliminate rain
water intrusion. Further, the storage sheds shall ave proper slope and seepage
collection pit s0 a5 collect seepage/fioor washings. The collected seepage/tioor
washings shall be channelized to efivent Treatment Plat for further treatment
(2) _Usisation of primary ETP sludge & Secondary Sludge shal not exceed 20% of the
coal consumed in AFBC bol
(2) Transfer of ETP Sludge from the storage shed shall be caried out thoveh
‘mechanical conveyor system t storage hopperixing unt,
(4) Uniform mising of coat and ETP sludge in the ratio of 20: 80 (TP Sludge: Coal) shal
be achleved using appropriate mechanized mating units
(5) The uniformed minture shall be transfer to the AFBC/PFBCICFBC boiler through
mechanised system,
(6) The AFBC bole shell maintain the temperature not less than 950°C
(7) Uslization of ETP sludge shall not be caved out during un-stabe/breskdown
condition inthe bol,
(8) The hot fue gases shall be passed through heat economiser and treated In
lectrostatcPreciitatr (ESP) or bag dust colectors connected to stack of height a¢
prescribed by SP,
(9) The unit shall ensure that all personel invalved inthe plant operation shall wear
ropes personal protective equipment such as masks, safety gloves, goggles, safety
Shoes et. suitable for power plant operations
(20) The unit shal obtain authorization from the concerned State Plltion Control Board
under the Hazards and Other Wastes (Managemant & Transboundary Movernent
ules, 2016, for generation, storage and tization of ETP Sudge
(22) The uni shal submit quartery and annual information on ETP Sladge generated,
consumed, quantity ullsed o« resources conserved epecying the details He type
and quantity of resources conserved) to the concerned SPCB. Further, the unt shall
slko submit quarterly analysis report of fy ash generated dutng wization of ETP
sludge for inital one yea.
(22) logbook with information on source, quantity, quality, date wise ulation of TP

Fox 3 & shall fle annual returns in Form 4 as per Rule 20 (2) and (2) of the
aardous and Other Wastes (Management and Transboundary Movement} Rules,
2016, 10 ca.
(14) Incase of enuconmental damages rising due to improper handing of hazardous
wastes including acidetal spiloge uring generation, storage, processing,
transportation and disposal, the unt shall be lable to implement immediate
response measures, environmental site assesment and remediation of
Contaminated soi/groundwaterfsediment ete. a¢ per the “Guidelines on
Implementing Usblties for Environmental Damages due to Handling & Disposal of
Harardous Wastes and Penalty" published by CPC.
