Environment Chemplast plans to invest Rs 20 cr in Mettur facility Our Bureau
Chennai , April 27 CHEMPLAST Sanmar Ltd will move towards zero treated effluent water discharge at its PVC and caustic soda plants at Mettur by investing Rs 20 crore in two schemes, a release said. The first scheme covers Rs 13 crore to treat the effluent discharge, which will be done by establishing a reverse osmosis plant, followed by a thermal evaporator and a crystalliser. The liquid effluents after this stage will be reduced to solid salts that can be disposed in secure landfills, in keeping with the guidelines of the Central Pollution Control Board. This entire cycle will result in zero discharge. The second scheme covers the remaining Rs 7 crore and will deal with treatment of effluents at the caustic soda plant. On completion of these schemes, the company will incur a recurring revenue expenditure of Rs 3 crore every year towards maintenance of the reverse osmosis plant and additional power charges required to sustain the zero discharge operation.
