Annexure-A Fuel Policy for Industries in Himachal Pradesh

Introduction :

Himachal Pradesh is one of the State of the Country which is characterized by an extreme landscape featuring several peaks and extensive river systems. Around 90% of the state's population lives in rural areas. Agriculture, Horticulture, Hydropower and Tourism are important constituents of the State's economy. The scope of industrialization in Himachal Pradesh is vast. Presently the industrialization in the State is confined within the major designated industrial areas viz. Baddi, Parwanoo, Kala Amb, Una, Kangra etc. One of the major concerns of the industrialization is air pollution which is being contributed in the atmosphere by usage of fuel in Furnaces/Boilers/D.G. Sets of the Industries which needs regulation. Section 19 (3) of the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981 empowers the State Government to prohibit the use of fuel which is likely to cause air pollution.

The Hon'ble Supreme Court in the matter titled as M.C. Mehta Versus Union of India & Ors. in Writ Petition (s) (Civil) No. 13029/1985 vide its order dated 17-11-2017, imposed ban on the use of pet-coke and furnace oil in industries in Northern Capital Region and requested all the State Governments and Union territories to consider similar measures. Subsequently, the Hon'ble Supreme Court passed various orders dated 13-12-2017, 05-02- 2018, 26-07-2018 and 9-10-2018 and took on record the report of Central Pollution Control Board regarding use of Pet Coke to be allowed as Feed stock in calcined Petroleum Coke units.

Further, the Hon'ble National Green Tribunal in OA No. 67/2019 titled as Sumit Kumar Versus State of H.P. & Ors. with Amarjeet Kumar Versus Union of India & Ors., dated 28- 03-2019 has accepted the report of the CPCB and directed CPCB to issue appropriate directions to the concerned States indicating corrective measures. Subsequently directions from CPCB under section-5 of EP Act, 1986 were received to formulate State Fuel Policy w.r.t. the use of Pet Coke and Furnace oil.

Purpose of the Policy :

• Prohibition or regulation of fuel and its use needs consideration on 'Precautionary' and 'Sustainable Development' principle, requirement of industrial units to switch over to alternatives and cleaner fuels. Therefore the industries shall have to switch over to alternatives and cleaner fuels.

• Cleaner Fuel in form of Biomass and combustible matter available in the State in abundance may be utilized to achieve the mandate of Air Act, 1981 and EP Act, 1986 for the prevention, control and abatement of pollution.

Industrial areas in H.P.:

There are about 44 notified Industrial Areas/Estates in the State of Himachal Pradesh with 9991 industries operational as per the data base (2017 report submitted in OA No.1038/2018 for comprehensive environment pollution index). Three areas in the State viz. Baddi, Parwanoo and Kala Amb fall under the classification of Severely Polluted Areas and seven towns of the State fall under the list of Non-Attainment Cities/towns, where particulate matter concentrations continuously exceeded from 2011-15 as per NAAQS, 2009 which include namely Baddi, Nalagarh, Parwanoo, Kala Amb, Paonta Sahib, Sunder Nagar and Damtal.

The major concern of Pet Coke and Furnace Oil to be used as fuel in industry is high sulphur content, which leads to emission of SO2 (Sulphur Dioxide) and NO2 (Nitrogen Dioxide) in the atmosphere. The Average 5 years ambient air quality data for the parameters of SO2 (Sulphur Dioxide) and NO2 (Nitrogen Dioxide), indicate that these levels are well below the limits of National Ambient Air Quality Standards, 2009 prescribed by the Central Pollution Control Board. However, the Particulate Matter (PM10) concentration has increased beyond permissible limits in some of the areas.

POLICY ON THE USE OF FUEL:—

PET COKE :

The Pet Coke is a final carbon-rich solid material, which is derived from oil refining and is one type of the group of fuels referred to as cokes. This coke can either be fuel grade (high in sulphur and metals) or anode grade (low in sulphur and metals). Pet-Coke is over 80% Carbon and emits 5% to 10% more Carbon Dioxide (CO2) than Coal on a per unit-of-energy basis when, it is burnt.

USAGE OF PET COKE :

• Cement industries: shall be allowed to use pet coke as a feedstock if they meet at- least 1% of the their total annual fuel consumption from Biomass and other combustible matter in view of State Government decision taken on 2-08-2019. All the Cement industries using pet coke as feed stock shall share the monthly record of use of pet coke with 100 % Sulphur absorption in the process, with the State Board on Monthly basis.

• Lime kilns, Calcium Carbide and Gasification Plants: shall be allowed to use Pet coke as feedstock with a condition that all the record of the use of pet coke with 100 % Sulphur absorption in the process shall be shared with the H.P. State Pollution Control Board on Monthly basis.

• Industries with boiler upto 20 Tons per hour Capacity or less, shall be allowed to use pet coke as fuel with condition that the unit shall install system for 90 % reduction of SO2 (Sulphur Dioxide) emissions.

• Industries with boiler of more than 20 Tons per hour Capacity, shall be allowed to use pet coke as fuel with condition that the unit shall install system for 90 % reduction of SO2 emissions alongwith continuous online emission monitoring system.

• For those units having furnaces including Brick Kilns based upon Pet-Coke as a fuel may be allowed with a condition that Unit(s) shall install the system for 90% reduction of SO2 emission and shall install the continuous online emission monitoring system. Industries using pet coke as fuel in thermic fluid heater shall install the system for 90% reduction of SO2 emission.

For all other Industrial operations which shall not be able to comply with the points as mentioned above shall have to shift from pet coke to alternate fuel/cleaner fuel as per the following timelines in Table-1 below:

Table-1

FURNACE OIL (FO) :

Furnace oil is a fuel oil which is dark and viscous. It is a residual fuel oil which is obtained by blending residual products from various refining processes with suitable diluent usually middle distillates to obtain the required fuel oil grades. For direct burning, furnace oil is viscous as well as not suitable for complete combustion. FO is a complex mixture of hydrocarbons.

PROHIBITION ON THE USE OF FURNACE OIL :

Use of furnace oil shall be prohibited after the time line as given in Table-1. The units which are using FO as fuel shall shift to HSD or any other cleaner fuel. The generator sets are allowed to use FO as fuel with the condition that they shall produce EPA compliance certificate with respect to specified emissions standards of D.G. sets.

PROHIBITION ON THE USE OF TYRE PYROLYSIS OIL AND LDO :

The Tyre Pyrolysis Oil, LSHS and LDO shall not be used as fuel in the State of H.P. for any activity/process manufacturing activity.

OPTIONAL CLEANER FUEL :

In replacement of Pet Coke, Furnace oil, Tyre Pyrolysis Oil and LDO as industrial fuels, the following fuels will be allowed for industries/Restaurants/Dhabas/Hotels/Canteens, subject to the conditions as imposed from time to time:—

i. Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG)

ii. Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG)421 राजपत्र, हिमाचल प्रदेश, 22 अप्रैल, 2022/02 वैशाख, 1944 iii. Piped Natural Gas (PNG) or CNG

iv. High Speed Diesel (HSD)

v. Bio Gas

vi. Bio-fuel (Bio-Ethanol etc.)

vii. Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF)

vii. Biomass

ix. Any other cleaner fuel with prior approval from the State Board.
