Environmental Impact Assessment of Zahedan compost plant

Compost is one of the urban waste management strategies that aim to reduce the volume and weight of materials to be repelled, reduce the spread of flue and fat, recycle resources, and reduce the cost of disposal. In order to comply with environmental laws and regulations in the framework of adaptation of an environmental development plan, an Environment Impact Assessment (EIA) plan for compost plants required. Accordingly, Leopold‘s checklist and modified matrix methods have been used in the environmental assessment of the Zahedan composting plant. according to the information obtained, it was determined that the area is not inhabited and in other respects, due to the researches and land use maps, no specific ecological and socioeconomic complications are identified within 10 km of the plan, and the land of the plot is mostly muddy and rough. The only factor that can specifically increase the radius of the effect of the plan is the direction and amount of 120-day winds of the province, which is usually from Zabol to Zahedan, which, due to the appropriate distance to the site, does not affect the city‘s residents. In total, the option of doing a design with +0.94 versus non-performing option with -3.7 has a full advantage and the plan is strongly recommended for improvement plans and corrective actions. Based on the review of the long-term effects of the project in the exploitation phase on leachate and its leakage, the health hazards of the factory for the employees and the external environment (mainly from insidious insects and animals), smell pollution and contamination of the product.
