Environmental Surveys And Monitoring (Air, Water, Noise, Land, Solid/Hazardous/Biomedical Waste)

It is mandatory under the Environment Act 1986 for industrial and commercial organizations to monitor various types of pollutants periodically with the help of MOEF approved lab. This is required to be done to comply with the statutory conditions specified in the Combined Pollution Consent and Environmental Clearance. Following table broadly indicates pollution parameters to be monitored.

Type of Emission or Discharge	Source	Pollution Parameters
Air/Gas	Boiler, Furnace, DG Set Stacks	SO₂, NO_x, TPM, Temp, Velocity & Flow Rate of Flue Gas
	Process Emission Stacks	Conc. Of Acidic Fumes, Chlorine, TPM, HC, Temp, Velocity & Flow Rate of Gaseous Emission or any other specific parameter.
	Ambient Air	SO₂, NO_x, CO, H₂S, NH₃, CH₄, O₃, VOC_s, SPM, PM₁₀, PM_2.5, Benzene, Benzo-a-pyrene, Lead, Arsenic, Nickel, higher hydrocarbons, other gases and metals as required. Meteorological Data: Temp, RH, Wind Velocity & Direction, Rainfall, Formulation of Wind Roses, etc.
	Inplant Ambient Air or Workroom	SO₂, NO_x, CO, CO₂, H₂S, NH₃, O₂, O₃, TVOCs, Acidic Fumes, Chlorine, SPM, PM₁₀, Temp, RH, Air Current Velocity
Noise	Ambient Air	Noise levels during day and night time
Noise	Inplant or Workroom	Noise levels during day and night time weighted averages
Effluent	Industrial Effluent (Raw or Treated)	General Parameters as pH, TDS, TSS, DO, BOD (27°C,3 days) COD & Chlorides Specific Parameters as Detergents, Ammonical Nitrogen, Phenolic Compounds, Sulphates, Phosphates, Oil & Grease, etc. Specific Tests like Kjeldahl Nitrogen, Cyanide Metals & Heavy Metals such as Iron, Zinc, Copper, Cadmium, Mercury, Lead, Chromium, etc.
Effluent	Domestic Effluent (Raw or Treated)	PH, TDS, TSS, DO, BOD (27°C, 3 days) COD, Oil & Grease, Detergent, Chlorides
Water	Municipal, Bore Well, Drinking Water, Process Water	Colour, Turbidity, pH, TDS, Alkalinity, Total Hardness, Calcium, Manganese, Potassium, Sodium, Zine, Iron, Copper, Chlorides, Sulphates, Nitrate, Phosphates, Ammonical Nitrogen, DO, BOD, COD, Total Coliform, Most Probable Number (MPN)
Sludge	Sewage Treatment Plant, Effluent Treatment Plant, Solid/Hazardous Wastes etc.	Biological Sludge as pH, Moisture Content, Inorganic Content, Organic Content, Sulphates, Chlorides and Mixture of Heavy/Toxic Metals, Copper, Cadmium, Lead, Nickel, Mercury, Total Chromium, Zinc, Kjeldahl Nitrogen and Total Phosphates. Chemical Sludge as pH, Moisture Content, Inorganic Content, Organic Content, Sulphates, Chlorides and Mixture of Heavy/Toxic Metals, Copper, Cadmium, Lead, Nickel, Mercury, Total Chromium, Zinc and Oil & Grease.
Soil	Land Non-Polluted or Polluted	pH, Moisture Content, Organic Content, Sulphates, Chlorides, Kjeldahl Nitrogen, Total Phosphates and Metals/Heavy Metals: Sodium, Calcium, Potassium, Copper, Cadmium, Lead, Nickel, Mercury, Total Chromium, Zinc.
Solid	Solid/Hazardous Wastes	Carbohydrates, Acidity, Alkalinity, Organic Matter, Salts, Calorific Value, Copper, Nickel, Chromium, Arsenic, Cadmium, Mercury, Lead, Zinc, etc.

Note: Environment Act 1986, Combined Pollution Consent and Environmental Clearance to be referred for specific pollution parameters to be monitored.
