What Is an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA)?
The purpose of an Environmental Impact Assessment is to thoroughly analyze all potential environmental impacts resulting from industrial operations.
The assessment typically focuses on four key domains:
- Air emissions – identification of pollutants, quantities, and treatment methods
- Impact on water resources – wastewater monitoring, pollution prevention, and purification systems
- Impact on soil – containment, hazardous material storage, and protective measures
- Noise and odor nuisances – evaluation of intensity, dispersion, and mitigation strategies
An EIA serves as the professional foundation for permit applications and as a vital planning tool for authorities, enabling informed decision-making that integrates environmental considerations.
Main Components of the EIA
- Description of the Facility’s Environment
- Mapping of nearby residential, open, and sensitive areas
- Analysis of topographical and climatic conditions
- Review of existing environmental infrastructure
- Assessment of nearby public and commercial receptors
- Description of Production Processes and Industrial Services
- Overview of production stages and applied technologies
- Mapping of raw materials and by-products
- Evaluation of energy and resource consumption
- Assessment of production capacities and efficiencies
- Air Emissions and Treatment Systems
- Identification and characterization of emission sources
- Description of filtration and gas treatment systems
- Monitoring and air-quality control programs
- Verification of compliance with regulatory standards
- Wastewater and Runoff Management
- Collection and separation systems for industrial wastewater
- Surface runoff control and treatment
- Drainage design to prevent contamination and flooding
