Plan de reducción del impacto de olores ofensivos en el centro de acopio de materia prima para saponificación en la industria jabonera

Abstract

This document presents information required by the Colombian Environmental Regulations as a requirement for a production system that has to do with the thermal treatment of animal by-products and emits ammonia H2S and NH3 sulfuric acid considered as offensive odors, which in the case of the company JABONES EL TIGRE Y LA ROCA SA Are derived from the preparation of tallow used for the chemical process of saponification. For the elaboration of the present Offensive Odor Impact Reduction Plan, an evaluative research methodology has been used with the purpose of evaluating the effectiveness of the cyclonic water absorption control system with which the company counts. Electrochemical sensors and impact estimation by Gaussian mathematical projection were used as analytical instruments. Initially develop the legal aspects that the International and National Environmental Authority imposes on any private entity to formulate some environmental improvement plan in their production system. The following is the working methodology and results of the Offensive Impact Reduction Plan in the order required by the environmental authority through Resolution 1541 of 2013: First: Present the results obtained from the characterization of the gases by Medium of the use of electrochemical detectors before and after washing, taking into account climatic conditions and amount of production. Compare the results obtained with the normative guidelines in accordance with standard environmental conditions of measurement. Second: Identify processes that affect the efficiency of the washing process as a conditioning mechanism Third: To present an estimate of the emission of the pollutant load through the use of Gaussian mathematical modeling of the impact zones of a fixed source according to its factor Emissions, taking into account the AP 42 section 5.2 of the EPA. Fourth: Present the Contingency Plan that identifies and predicts risk scenarios, their causes, effects, resources and enforcement officers, which was raised around the prevention of episodes that generate offensive odors above the characteristic levels of the activity. Finally, the conclusions are presented according to the results obtained in compliance with the objectives set forth and the guidelines of the current regulations.
