Description

Building industry is one of the leaders in deterioration of environment by depleting resources & consuming energy or creation of waste, also a considerable amount of emissions of greenhouse & acidifying gases has the origin in building industry. Cement belongs to the most often used building materials & its production is increasing over the world. But the cement industry is an energy enormous intensive & produces many emissions, odors & noise. A study has been carried out to assess environmental impacts in terms of water, groundwater, air & noise pollution in cement manufacturing plant at Morak, Rajasthan after a period of about 30 years of its operation. During the study, ambient air quality parameters, physio-chemical parameters of water & noise levels as well as health & safety measures for workers at Manglam Cement Limited Morak have been evaluated. Zero Discharge approach is examined in Manglam Cement Limited where no liquid/solid waste is generated from the plant; it shows that significant environmental improvements are being made. We hope this book will be a useful asset for the students, researchers and all other concerned. We owe our gratefulness to the almighty God.
