The Telangana State Pollution Control Board (TSPCB) has served “stop production” order on the Ramagundam Fertilisers and Chemicals Limited (RFCL) plant located in the industrial hub of Ramagundam in Peddapalli district citing “non-compliance” with the consent conditions and “failure” to take adequate measures to control the ammonia emissions.
The orders to this effect were issued on Saturday under Water (Prevention & Control of Pollution) Amendment Act, 1988, TSPCB sources said.
The gas-based industry is engaged in production of ammonia and prilled urea catering to the fertiliser requirements of farmers in the State and elsewhere in the country.
