CHAPTER 1 - INTRODUCTION

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE PROJECT

Indian Institute of Technology Madras is one among the foremost institutes of


national importance in higher technological education, basic and applied research. In
1956, the German Government offered technical assistance for establishing an institute
of higher education in engineering in India. The first Indo-German agreement for the
establishment of the Indian Institute of Technology at Madras was signed in Bonn, West
Germany in 1959. The Institute was formally inaugurated in 1959 by Prof. Humayun
Kabir, then Union Minister for Scientific Research and Cultural Affairs.

Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IITM) is a residential institute with about


605 faculty, 9500 students and 676 administrative and supporting staff. IITM is a self-
contained campus located in a beautiful wooded land of about 248 hectares. It has
established itself as a premier centre for teaching, research and industrial consultancy
in the country and the world.

The Institute has sixteen academic departments and a few advanced research
centres in various disciplines of engineering and pure sciences, with nearly 100
laboratories organized in a unique pattern of functioning. Faculty of international
repute, brilliant student community, excellent technical and supporting staff and an
effective administration have all contributed to the pre-eminent status of IIT Madras.
The campus is located in the city of Chennai, previously known as Madras. Chennai is
the state capital of Tamil Nadu, a Southern state in India.

IITM has proposed to construct additional academic, residential and hostel


buildings to cater to the needs of students, staff and faculty as per the Government of
India (GOI) policies pertaining to higher educational institutions.

While augmenting the existing infrastructure, IITM has been taking several
initiatives to protect the environment in the campus. The principle of co-existence of
human beings and animals without any conflict is practiced in augmenting the
infrastructure. As per the Government of India Orders, IITM has been steadily
increasing student’s strength besides staff to cater to the needs of our country.

CHAPTER 1 - INTRODUCTION

1.2 OBJECTIVES

The key objectives of this study include the following:

To determine the compatibility of the proposed project facilities with the


neighboring land uses.
To assess and evaluate the environmental costs and benefits associated with the
proposed project.
To evaluate and select the best project alternative from the various options
identified.
To incorporate monitoring mechanisms during project implementation and
Operational phases.

1.3 ACADEMIC PURSUITS AND THE IIT SYSTEM

IIT Madras was established in 1959 as part of the endeavour by the Government
to establish such institutes of national importance across the nation. The primary
objective of the IITs in the words of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru was “To provide scientists
and technologists of the highest caliber who would engage in research, design and
development to help building the nation towards self reliance in her technological
needs”. Five IITs were set up in the period 1951 to 1961 in quick succession – IIT
Kharagpur in 1951, IIT Bombay in 1958, IIT Madras in 1959, IIT Kanpur in 1960 and IIT
Delhi in 1961. Pursuant to the original goals, these IITs were equipped with full
facilities and reached fairly mature states of development very quickly – within a
decade in the case of IIT Madras.

The current space needs and requirement to augment facilities and increase in
intake are as per the central policy initiatives and directives by the Ministry of Human
Resources and Development, Government of India.

CHAPTER 1 - INTRODUCTION

1.4 RESIDENTIAL NATURE OF THE INSTITUTE

IITM has always been a residential institute. Most of the faculty, staff and the
students reside in the campus. Though there are set timings for the set learning
modules, facilities are available round the clock. Institute encourages non-motorized
mode of transport inside the campus. Free public transport systems are available in the
campus to encourage this. Students in the hostels are prohibited to use motorized
vehicles in the campus.

1.5 SUSTAINABILITY: OVERARCHING PRINCIPLES AND THEMES

Planning in the campus takes into account the aspects of sustainability and co-
existence of humans and animals. The following points summarize some of the major
initiatives:

 The uniqueness of the natural environment and its biodiversity will be the major
factor while planning.

 Biodiversity shall not only be protected but also nurtured vigorously.

 Foot print of built environment is recognized as a clear indicator of man’s


intervention on the natural environment. Therefore, strategies that restrict further
increase shall guide future development and management. Wherever possible, foot
print shall not increase; on the contrary planning will aim to decrease this.

 All open spaces and water bodies shall be conserved to the maximum possible
extent.

 Planning shall aim to minimize per capita intake of resources from the City’s
infrastructure network while at the same time shall also minimize the per capita
discharge of waste in to the network.

 All new buildings with a plinth area more than 5000 sq.m in IITM campus are
registered for GRIHA 4 rating.

1.6 GOVERNMENT OF INDIA - LEGISLATION - CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS

Since the proposed activity constitutes construction of buildings in an area greater than
1,50,000 Sq. m., it requires Environmental Clearance from State Environment Impact
Assessment Authority (SEIAA) under sector 8(b) of EIA Notification 2006.

Government of India, Ministry of Environmental Forests, New Delhi has issued a


notification with regard to the development of infrastructure / construction projects,
which is known as EIA Notification - 2006, issued on 14.09.2006. As per this notification
all building and construction projects come under 8(b), demands Scoping and EIA.

In this regard, the Developer has appointed M/s. ABC Techno Labs India Private
Limited, Chennai, accredited by National Accreditation Board for Education and
Training (NABET) - Quality Council of India (QCI), New Delhi and National Accreditation
Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL) to formulate Environmental
Management Plan during Construction & Operational Phases to mitigate any adverse
impacts to the Environment.

The Conceptual Plan describes all the details of the project and its specific activities that
will be considered for investigation of the significant adverse impacts. The report also
provides specific measures that will be put to practice to minimize the impacts on the
Environment.

CHAPTER 2-DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT SITE

2.3 SITE CONNECTIVITY

The northern and southern boundaries of the campus front are surrounded by three
very busy localities of the city, namely Kotturpuram, Taramani and Velachery. Its
neighbors on the northern side are the vast campuses of the CLRI and Anna University
all accessed from Sardar Patel Road and green in character thus maintaining a
continuity. On the contrary, the southern edge is a rude progression into the dense
residential localities of Velachery and Taramani with the south western tip of the
academic zone gaining access from the Velachery main road. The campus is the most
blessed on the West with its stately, green and completely protected neighbor, the
Guindy National Park. The north eastern end of the campus fronts the Film City, with
access from the CSIR Road. Its south eastern end is in close proximity to small
residential settlements.

The major vehicular entry into the campus is from the north from Sardar Patel Road
while there are subsidiary entries on the south west from Velachery main road and
south east from the residential area of Taramani. Due to the uniqueness of its
composition in being primarily a residential institute, the campus has grown to support
several common facilities including schools, banks, post office, temple etc. These
facilities that are also open to the neighborhood, draw residents from the surrounds as
well, necessitating more than one entry into the campus.

CHAPTER 2-DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT SITE

2.4 TOPOGRAPHY
Topographically, the proposed project area is fairly flat terrain. As mentioned,
the land slopes from West to East by at least 4 metres. Most of the academic area and
some parts of the residential and hostel areas are at a higher elevation while the slopes
are felt in the eastern and south eastern segments of the campus that contain hostel and
residential zones. Guindy National park itself is at an elevation higher than that of the
campus and hence contributes to significant quantity of rain water that ultimately flows
through IITM campus into the lake situated in the campus.

2.4.1 Drainage Pattern

A study of the topography of IITM shows that the land slopes to the East, more or
less everywhere. Most of the surface run off finds its way to the lake which acts as a
natural rainwater harvesting system for the campus. Rain water drainage channels are
present mostly in the form of open unlined earthen channels and natural nallas.

CHAPTER 3- PROJECT DESCRIPTION

3.4 WATER REQUIREMENT

Water requirement during Construction Phase will be about 54 KLD which will be
sourced from outside through tankers by Civil Contractors.

IITM receives about 20 lakh liters of water from CMWSSB. The received water is stored
in 4 sumps offering a capacity of about 35 lakh liters, near the entrance gate. The water
is pumped through feeder mains to six numbers of elevated service reservoirs with a
combined capacity of about 30 lakh liters and six numbers of underground sumps with
a combined capacity of 18 lakh liters. Water Treatment plant has been installed near the
lake to meet out the domestic water requirement of 0.8 MLD. Fresh water received in
the head works is chlorinated before supply. RO plants are installed with system of
microfiltration, ultra filtration and UV disinfection to affect water supply to the tune of
25,000 liters per day.

Existing sewer system consists of collecting sewage from individual sources through a
series of inspection chambers, connecting the same to the sewer manholes and
conveying the sewage to the treatment plant of 4 MLD capacity. Separate network is
available for recycling the treated sewage into hostel area for flushing purposes. Excess
treated wastewater is disposed to IIT Research Park and to recharge ground water.

3.5.1 Process Description: (SEWAGE PUMPING STATION, SEWAGE TREATMENT


PLANT & POST UF TREATMENT):

(a) Sewage Collection and Transfer:

Sewage from the last gravity manhole is extended to a Receiving chamber. The receiving
chamber is supplied with aeration air to avoid settling of heavy particles. Sewage from
the receiving chamber flows by gravity to the Coarse bar screen chamber. The grit from
the mechanical bar screen will be diverted to a hand wheel barrow for disposal to
suitable disposal site.

Coarse screened sewage water flows by gravity to the Collection sump. The collection
sump is also provided with coarse aeration to avoid settling of solids to the bottom of
the tank. The sewage from the collection sump is transferred to Primary Treatment
Units through Raw sewage transfer pumps and is metered by a Flow meter.

(b) Primary Treatment Unit:

The purpose of the primary treatment unit is to screen and remove grits in the sewage
water. The primary treatment unit consists of a stilling chamber, Fine bar screen
chamber, grit chambers and the balancing tank. The sewage water flow from the stilling
chamber to the balancing tank is by gravity.

Inlet chamber is the first unit in the Primary treatment unit and receives raw sewage
from the raw sewage transfer pumps. The stilling chamber helps in killing the velocity
of the pumped sewage and to allow an uniform flow to the Fine bar screen chambers.

The fine screened sewage water flows by gravity to the gravity type grit chambers. The
grits from bottom of the grit chambers are manually drained to a standing hand wheel

barrow. The screened and grit removed sewage water is transferred by gravity to the
next Raw sewage balancing tank through a collection pit.

Homogenization in the Raw Sewage balancing tank is achieved by way of providing


coarse bubble aeration (through perforated header – lateral arranged pipe system) at
the bottom of the tank. Balancing is achieved by providing sufficient residence time.

The sewage is further transferred to Secondary Treatment unit by the SBR feed pumps
with a design flow capacity of 83m3/hr to each pump.

(c) Secondary Treatment Unit:

The secondary treatment step is basically the biological treatment of raw sewage to
reduce the BOD and COD contents. Sequential Batch Reactor (SBR) is used for biological
treatment. The SBR unit consists of two streams of two batch aeration basins, each
designed to treat 50% of raw sewage flow.

The SBR works in batches. The Fill, Aeration, Settling and Decanting forming the four
steps in each batch cycle. While one basin in each stream is in filling step, theother basin
will be in aeration/ settling/ decanting step. Motorized Isolation gates are provided to
stop raw sewage flow to the basin that is not in Fill step. Each basin has an inlet selector
zone and an aeration zone. The raw sewage flows through under flow and over flow
baffle arrangement in the selector zone prior to flowing into the aeration zone. This
effectively provides an anaerobic condition and help in removal of phosphates and
denitrification. The selector zone is provided with coarse bubble aeration (perforated
tube arrangement). The air flow to the coarse bubble aeration system is as per pre-
determined cycle in each batch. The aeration tank is provided with fine bubble diffuser
arrangement. Air flow to the fine bubble diffusers is not allowed during the Settling and
decanting phase of each cycle.

The decanted treated sewage is divided into two streams (2 X 2 MLD) using motorized
valves and Level controller. One stream flows into UF Feed Water storage tank.In ozone
contact tank ozone is sparged using diffuser for specified contact time and then drained
into the canal .From the UF feed Tank treated sewage is further passed through ultra
filtration membranes for reduce the microbial count . The UF permeate is collected in
treated water tank in which ozone is sparged for further disinfection and disposal

CHAPTER 3- PROJECT DESCRIPTION

(d) Tertiary Treatment Unit:

Part of the treated sewage water is transferred to the Tertiary Treatment Unit. The
remainder of the treated sewage water is disposed to Buckingham canal by gravity.

The tertiary treatment unit consists of Ultrafiltration membrane units and helps in
removal of suspended solids and colloidal solids in the disinfected treated sewage
water.The UF units consist of a basket strainer (BS) installed prior to the UF skid and
the UF skid (UF). A Flow meter is installed at the inlet of UF skid to read water flow rate
into the UF skid. The UF permeate water is collected in UF Permeate water storage tank.
The treated water transfer pumps (3 working + 1 stand by) transfers the UF permeate
water from UF water storage tank to reuse utility line.

A part of the UF permeate is transferred to UF recovery cleaning tank to facilitate


periodical UF back wash. The back wash from UF routed to the nearest storm water
drain. The UF membranes are to periodically cleaned with chemicals to remove any
scaling or bio fouling. Alkali or acid is used for removal of inorganic scaling and Sodium
hypochlorite is used for removal of biological fouling in membranes.

(e) Service Water:

A line is drawn from the discharge of Treated water transfer pumps to provide service
water for chemical solution preparation (chemical dosing tanks), water cleaning of bar
screens and for water flushing points near chemical dosing area and sludge pump.

(f) Disposal of Treated Sewage/Treatment Plant Sludge

Three lakh litres of treated sewage is used for flushing in hostel and residential zones. A
fully-automatic Treated Water Distribution System with 20 km long pipelines connects
to every household, hostel and academic block. This enables optimum utilization of
treated water. Remaining treated water is stored in the oxidation ponds. Two lakh litres
of Excess treated water is disposed to IIT Research park. So, the remaining 10-12 lakh
litres is in excess, which is being diverted into ponds and to groundwater recharge. Two
groundwater recharge wells are dug up, each having a capacity of 0.5 MLD. This will
replenish the fresh water lake. Sludge from the treatment plant is used as manure for
gardens in the campus.

3.5.2 Preventive measures to avoid leaching of treated sewage into nearby water
courses

Treated sewage from sewage treatment plant will be conveyed to treated sewage
tank through pipelines. All the joints from piping system will be checked periodically
and carrying treated wastewater pipes will be laid in conduits wherever road crossings
are expected. Supervisors will be employed for overall operation and maintenance of
water supply, waste water treatment and other utility services.

4.4 FIRE FIGHTING SYSTEM

Fire protection is one of the most essential services to be provided. The principal
objective of the rescue and firefighting services is to save lives. For this reason, the
provision for means of quick dealing with an accident or incident occurring at, or in the
immediate vicinity of, any building, assumes primary importance because it is within
this area that there is the greatest opportunity of saving lives. This must assume at all
times the possibility of, and need for, extinguishing a fire which may occur either
immediately following an accident or incident, or at any time during rescue operations.
In the design component of the project, adequate measure is being taken as per the
provisions of the National Building Code, 2005. The fire fighting system will comprise
the following.
Fire hydrant system
The buildings will be provided with adequate nos. of external and internal fire
hydrants with fire hose cabinet.
Portable fire extinguishers
Selection, installation and maintained of first aid extinguishers will be done as
per lS: 2190 - 1992 and among different types of portable fire extinguishers
generally followed types will be provided.
Water fire extinguishers
Two extinguishers per compartment/floor of building will be provided and
firefighting sump will be installed for water storage.
