Case Studies

This project was to identify, measure, report and remediate the contamination/pollution on Environmental Factors such as Soil, Ground Water and Air by the Pesticide Manufacturing Unit in operation many years before the country EPA came into force. During our detailed study, the risk exposure on Soil, Ground Water, and Air was identified and measured, and we decontaminated these using chemical and biological remedial treatments. After the completion of the project, the groundwater, soil, and air quality were successfully improved at the site, which helped in the flourishing of flora and fauna in the area. This exercise in the long term helps the atmosphere heal slowly from the effects of harmful chemicals.

The objective of the project was to reduce the GHG emissions due to degradation of bio-waste. This was UNDP supported Project in Europe.  The best possible way identified was to focus on reduction of quantity of bio-waste which was disposed to landfills. This was achieved by educating the community to follow best sustainable practices. This project was successfully reduced GHG emissions generated due to bio-waste. Furthermore, sustainable waste management practices were adopted for Landfill operations to reduced GHG emissions at landfill.

We audited the Nuclear Power Generation Plant for Environment, Safety, and Health perspectives. Based on the findings, we designed an Environment, Safety, and Health (EHS) Management Plan prepared with the Mapping of priorities, and training regarding health safety practices was also imparted. The audit findings improved overall Environment, Health, and Safety practices at the plant. Also helped them set up a tracking and reporting mechanism for various types of pollution.

This study was conducted to devise a plan for solid waste treatment for multiple localities. For this study, our teams performed characterization of waste, on-site which was received from different dumping locations and at different intervals. Based on the findings, various waste processing units were planned for allowable Solid Waste which is processed further for converting it to manure and generating electricity in form of Methane. The remaining waste, which is not utilized in this process, was later segregated to generate Refused Derived Fuel (RDF). The remaining inorganic waste was used for construction-related purposes as a raw material. The outcome of the studies directed the company to set up cost-effective and efficient operational processes. Further, it also helped to forecast the final output with improved precision from the project thus improving productivity and better economic viability for the project.

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) aim to transform our world. They are a call to action to end poverty and inequality, protect the planet, and ensure that all people enjoy health, justice, and prosperity. We advised and helped a leading Global Financial Advisory in identifying and reporting its Sustainability practices.

According to Company’s Ethos and during discussions it was reflected that the employees are its most important Asset and Stakeholders and thus, we helped the company highlight the practices being followed by them which are focused on the development of the employees and their growth. We also assessed the Client Data Protection practices implemented in the organization as well as guided the company on the various policy and framework formulations, required to achieve the company’s good governance goals. This exercise helped the company identify the areas where it needs to make more targeted efforts, as well as communicate its values and beliefs to its various Stakeholders and showcase how are they currently working towards arranging Thematic financing in developing markets and advancing towards its journey of being a more Sustainability focused Business.

For the purpose of building a new network of rail routes, this study was specially conducted in line with IFC standards. A preconstruction land disturbance survey was conducted during the study considering potential & residual impacts on the environment & people, providing solutions to mitigate the impacts during construction as well as the operation phase of a new Railway line network in a region of Africa. The report included multiple aspects such as Biodiversity restoration, minimizing the Land Disturbance impact, Influx Management, and saving Cultural Heritage, and this railway line in turn has acted as a boost to social infrastructure and better connectivity.

Acting as a part of the expert group of advisors to the Government, our experts have guided and supported Governments to bring positive change to the country. This was aimed at strengthening local capacities for diversifying sources and options for a resource-efficient economy. This was achieved by bringing together policymakers, businesses, and civil society at the local level. For more sustainable practices of the Government, the evaluation of green products and the evaluation of barriers to generating Green Public Procurement were studied and recommendations were provided to the Government on it along with the promotion of Eco labels and usage of Clean Fuels. In addition to this, as a part of the expert group, also helped Government to develop a framework for a National Strategy and Action plan for the reduction of Green House Gases emissions.

In this project, expertise was provided to the Government by our experts on sustainable usage of water in countries of North Africa. As a part of the project, the water budget was calculated for the local communities and suggestions were made for the sustainable use of water as a critical resource ensuring water security for the country’s people. Local Water Security strategies and action planning were also developed by the team as a part of the project.
