Ganga River
Liquid Effluents having trace of chromium, sulfide, ammonium and salts enter into aquatic system
11
Ground Water
12
Soil
Sludge from tannery industries leaks into soil and agricultural land
Sludge is contaminated with toxic metals like chromium(VI) and other toxins
13
AIR POLLUTION
ECONOMIC
Sick cows and buffaloes produce less milk affecting income of villagers
14
The doctors said that contaminated water was the cause of my kidney disease
- Deven Kr Yadav (Sufferer)
15
Raw Sewage being fed to the farm lands before the Ganga Action Plan
The treated water also , contains Cadmium and the carcinogenic Chromium
16
Economic Impacts
Low Yield Of Wheat, Paddy And Barseem
Changing Crop Pattern Stunted And Ill Nature Of Yield Livestock Productivity Affected Frequent Fish Mortality
17
Social Implications
Loss of trust in the village people by outsiders People not able to sell milk and crops Crops sold in market by false claims
Socio-Ecological results
Loss of bio-diversity in the area Polluted air due to fumes False presentation of supplied crops have larger ill effects 50 years of wastewater and 20 of tannery water has made the land poisonous Animals falling ill and dying Low income and falling living standards Floriculture sustaining livelihood in these villages hit severely
19
Institutional Dilemma
Norms for safe irrigation water?
Should the farmers be made to pay for the unsafe irrigation water or compensated for consuming it?
20
Owners
Bureaucratic obstacle in CEPTs operations Politicians as tannery owners circumvent laws contributed 17.5 per cent cost of the CETP
chromium recovery plants
21
CETP in Jajmau
Many other industries are letting their waste into the general city sewer
Misunderstandings on Lack of information part of the tanners Policies change with time
Operational price
Not dependent upon how much quantity water one use or discharge
Customer demand and government pressure: Motivation for implementation of environmental practices
22
for some the survival is from year to year smaller tanneriesoperations is on and off on a monthly basis
No one thinks of spending time and effort to develop a 5 or 10-year strategy on any issue
23
Large scale
Manual operations
chemicals( tanning pigments (Cr VI), organic solvents and other chemicals) and dust
Respiratory disorders, gastrointestinal tract problems, skin complaints, and low-back pain
24
The urinary and blood samples collected from the exposed workers showed significantly higher levels of chromium
Disposed in one or another way No damage to soil by the effluent rather it contains elements that make land more fertile
25
Dutch Project : To prevent pollution of the river Ganges and improve living conditions of people in Jajmau
Non-excludable hence no single person ready to take responsibility to manage it No effective controls are in place, or feasible thus the cost of exclusion outweighs the benefits
26
27
200 Water Treatment Plants for 400 tanneries Only 65% efficient Waste water is highly corrosive and constantly damaging existing plants Supreme Court has already directed to share these costs on 50:50 bases among Tanners and KNN
Government Initiatives GAP-I Intermediate Pumping Stations(IPS)-to collect the effluent waste from the tanneries
A larger part of this problem exists with the careless behaviour of the government institutions
28
Kanpur is being dumped with tonnes of sledge Kanpur is being discharged with gallons of contaminated water People dying of worst kind of diseases Once a Beautiful Eco-System turned to a Living Hell

Suggestions
Effective Government Control
Financial Support
Promote Better Techniques
31
Use of natural products e.g. Tannins NO-Chrome or Cadmium Technology Very old & Environment-friendly Method o Takes longer time than Chrome Tanning
Vegetable Tanning
