Significant Air Emissions
  
All ITC units have state-of-the-art pollution control and monitoring systems and regularly monitor air emissions to measure Suspended Particulate Matter (SPM), Sulphur Dioxide (SO2), Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) and other pollutants. Additionally, the Bhadrachalam unit also monitors Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S) levels regularly. The measured levels have always been well within stipulated norms.

The average SPM levels of 1.04 kg/BDMT (Bone Dry Metric Tonne) of paperboards in 2005-06 showed a reduction of 27% from 2004-05 emission levels. The specific NOx emission was 0.69 kg per tonne of paperboard (9.2% less than the previous year).
