Study of Technical and Engineering Aspects of the Existing Venturi Scrubber System for Effectiveness in a Plant
Coke calcining plant generates significant amount of particulate matter and gases from exhaust streams causing respiratory health issues as well as environmental impact. In order to control its implications, proper inspection and maintenance of emission control technologies plays vital role. The present study reviews air pollution issues related to calcine pet coke industry and through analysis of indoor and outdoor air quality assessment from CPC plant and its implications over nearby housing settlements at different working capacities of the plant. Upon careful investigation the study recommended mitigation measures to be adopted such as regular maintenance of cyclone separator and bag filters as well as rearrangement of loading warehouse area, increasing green cover with strategic planning, etc.
