Title: STRATEGIC ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT (SEA) PROCESS TOWARDS SUSTAINABLE PETROCHEMICAL MANAGEMENT DEVELOPMENT FOR THE PETROCHEMICAL INDUSTRIES TO ACHIEVE BUSINESS EXCELLENCE
Abstract:
The
petrochemical resource
conservation and recovery (RCR) method has been devised prior to
environmental impact assessment (EIA) process. Strategic environmental
assessment (SEA) process can be broadly defined as a study of the impacts of a
proposed project, plan, project, policy or legislative action on the
environment and sustainability. Vijayan Gurumurthy Iyer (2022) mentioned
that the root cause problem solution for
ozone layer depletion potential (OLP) impact, global warming potential (GWP)
impact and green house synergic
(augmentative) gas (GHG) emission impact in context to petrochemical industrial
plants are measured, monitored and mitigated by international environmental
impact assessment process (Figure-3) for the sustainable environmental climate
change and control. In this research,
SEA process has been aimed in order to incorporate environmental and
sustainability factors in to petrochemical project planning and decision making
PCPPDM process such as project
formulation and appraisal of Indo-Matsushita midget electrode (battery carbon rod)
plant in 1979 at Tada, petrochemical processing that included policies,
programs, plans and legislative actions. Sustainable petrochemical development is a kind of development
that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability and efficacy
of future generations to meet their own needs. Environmental Impact Assessment
(EIA) process can be defined as the systematic study and check of the potential
impacts (effects) of proposed projects, plans, programs, policies or
legislative actions relative to the physical-chemical, petro-chemical , biological,
cultural, and socioeconomic components of the total environment. The primary
purpose of the EIA process is to encourage the consideration of the environment
in petrochemical organizational project planning and decision making process and to arrive at actions that are
environmentally compatible. PCPPDM process should include the integrated
consideration of technical or engineering, economic, environmental, safety, and
health, social and sustainability factors to achieve business excellence. Prior to the National Environmental Policy
Act (NEPA) process in 1970 in the USA, technical and economic factors dominance
the World’s petrochemical projects. The
objective of the study is to conceptualize SEA process for the climate change
and pollution control in petrochemical sector based on fifteen number of sustainable
detailed project reports (DPRs) submitted by the extension learners of Diploma
in Entrepreneurship and Business Management (DEBM) course conducted by the
Entrepreneurship Development Institute of India (The EDI of India) during the
research year (RY) 1999 to 2022 under the author’s counsellorship and BIPARD
training and research course module on climate change and control. The design
of the study is cross sectional. Environmental
Health Impact Assessment (EHIA) process has been conducted for petrochemical, mining
and nuclear power plant to consider the environmental quality, safety and health
impacts to mitigate psychological health effects on workers and nearby
residents. Social Impact Assessment (SIA) process can be defined as the
systematic identification and evaluation of the potential social impacts
(effects) of proposed projects, plans, programs, or legislative actions such that
social consideration is encouraged in PCPPDM process and to arrive at actions
that are socially compatible with reference to a sustainable sanitation
project. SEA process concerns to environment and sustainability effects in PCPPDM
process and arrive at proposed projects,
plans, programs, and legislative actions that are compatible with respect to
environment and sustainability issues. International EIA process required
multi-disciplinary approach that has been conducted very early stage of Japanese
Matsushita carbon rod project in 1982 for strategic environmental assessment. The
paper highlights SEA process conducted for certain projects that based on operation
and process approach and associated studies for sustainable development. Petrochemical
and civil engineering product environmental lifecycle analysis (LCA) has been conducted
for identifying and measuring the impact of petrochemical and corroded engineering
structural products on the environment
and sustain efficacy by means of mass and energy balance methods in M/S Madras
Fertilizers Limited , Manali, Chennai, India.
LCA considers the activities related to raw materials, transformation,
ancillary materials, equipment, method, market, man power, production, use,
disposal and ancillary equipment.As far as petrochemical safety is concerned personal
protective equipments and materials (PPEMs) that include garments, clothing, gloves,
safety shoes, hard hats, safety glasses, shields, respirators, full aprons,
safety belts, and other safety items which have to be used by an individual.
Such equipment is important for personal protection and for safety. It is the
manager’s and supervisor’s responsibility to ensure that they are used. The enactment
of worker’s compensation law and occupational disease law shall increase
materially the cost of insurance to industry. The increased cost and the
certainty with which it is applied will put a premium on accident-prevention
work. This cost can be materially reduced by the installation of safety
devices. Petrochemical management research experience has shown that
approximately 80% of all the petrochemical industrial accidents are
preventable.EIA and EHIA processes have been
conducted for a nuclear power plant to consider the safety and health impacts tomitigate
psychological health loadings on workers and nearby residents. SEA system is a
potentially useful element of good environmental management and sustainable
development; however, as currently practiced in petrochemical industries, it is
far from perfection. Emphasis should be
given in petrochemical industries on maintaining economic viability of the
operation, while in turn taking care to preserve the ecological and social sustainabilities
of the country. International EIA process
required multi-disciplinary approach that has been conducted very early stage of
Indo-Matsushita Midget electrode project 1982 at Tada for technical, economic,
ecological and social sustainablities.
