Risk Assessment and Monitoring for Environmenatl Chemicals 17th of Feb- 24th of August 2003 Final Report Kobe, August. 22nd , Fri. By: Jahan Sher Pakistan
PURPOSE OF ATTENDING THIS TRAINING COURSE • To learn about risk assessment technology for environmental contaminants and their impact on human and environment. • To acquire techniques for the operation of analytical instruments • To acquire knowledge of latest research in the field of environment • To acquire solving of global environmental issues regarding pollution. • To reduce and solve the environmental problems in my country • This training is very important for my job and for my country
WHAT I HAVE STUDIED from THIS COURSE • The course was divided into: • Lectures • observations • Practice (practical work)
The LECTURES • There were very important lectures in different aspects, such as: • The Principles of environmental chemicals, • Environmental endocrine disruptors, • Toxicity Assessment of Environmental Toxicants, • Studies on the Elucidation of pesticides residue, • status and agriculture production scene.
Observations • Kobe offshore reclamation disposal site.(waste disposal management in sea.) • Nishinomiya waste municipal refuse disposal center.(incineration) • Matsushita Eco- technology co,ltd.( TV,Refrigirater,washing machine,A/c reclying ).. • Waste Treatment Plant • Port Island Waste Treatment Plant: Domestic Waste Management Plant by incineration. • Waste water treatment facilities in Kobe Steel Company ltds Kakagawa works. • Shimadzu Plant and Memorial Hall in Shimadzu Company Ltd. • Fisheries Technology Institute, • Water Treatment Techniques Shinko Pantec Co. Ltd9Research center for Dioxin&PCB) • Environmental Bureau of Hyogo Prefecture Government (PCB sampling) • Sanyo Electric Company Ltd: Battery assembling lines and waste water treatment • Institute of Environmental toxicology, Tsukuba

Practices HORIBA: • PH, Turbidty, DO, COD, Stack gas analyzer, CO,SO2.NOX,O3,etc. • GC-MS,LC-MS,HPLC.
HITACHI • HPLC ,AAS,LCMS, • Centrifuges,
SHIMADZU • Ambient air monitoring. • Process of gas monitoring. • Emission of gas monitoring
HPTCAFF • Analysis of biomass. • Rapid analysis of heavy metal in soil • ICP – Atomeic Emission Spectrophotometry • Analysis of nitrates (NO3) in vegetables • Water quality examination
Kobe Quarantine Station • Simultaneous analysis of agriculture products, fruits, and vegetables • We work on GC, GC/MS
HPIPHES • Analysis PCBs in sea sediment • Rapid Analysis of ELISA method • Analysis of formaldehyde & acetaldehyde in ambient air • Monitoring of the site polluted with VOCs • Measurement of cyanide in water sample by packed test • Measurement of phenol in water sample by pack test. • Measurement of ammonium in water sample by pack test. • Measurement of hardness of mineral water • Analysis of heavy metals Pb, Cd, in water by flame type AAS & ICP • Monitoring & analysis of ambient particulate matter
Kobe University • We conducted study on ELISA in the center of Environmental Genomic Kobe University. • ELISA: Enzyme-linked-immunosorbent assay, used for the measurement of EDs such as dioxin& pesticides residue .
Which subjects are most useful to solve environmental problems in your country? • This course give me more technical knowledge regarding the new technology & latest advance instruments in the field of environment which were introduced by various Japanese companies, such as Horiba,Hitachi,shimadzu etc. • All the subjects in this training course are very important and useful for me and can minimize environmental problems in my country.
As a limnologist ( AWF/Risk assessment officer) my job is the analysis of river water & to monitor & asses the risk posed by the environmental toxic chemicals ,Industerial, municipal & agriculture contaminants on human&, aquatic biota (Fish). My responsibility is to protect water contaminants/pollution in river water and to conserve fish. • Analysis of water pollution is the most useful in my country.
Action plan • I will take much interest in research as compared to field work (Conservational duty for the control of illegal fishing in the are). for the improvement of environment. • I will up-grade the existing laboratory facilities. • I will train the laboratory research staff in analysis & monitoring of environmental sampling. • I will transfer all the latest technology studied in this training to my field & research staff,Involving them in every technique of sampling & analysis. • I will teach the lab. staff about the principle & operational techniques of GC-MS.
I will transfer the scientific method of ICP& AAS for the analysis of heavy metals in water. • I will demand for the provision of all possible new & latest analytical instruments to Laboratories which I have used during practice in Japan. • I will monitor the aquatic biota (fish) for the environment & save fish fauna from mercury pollution, its effect on environment, & on human (Minamata disease.) steps required to prevent Minamata incident in future. Minamata disease is a typical example of pollution-related to health demage in japan. • Analyzed Hg, Cd, As in water sample. Analyzed the sampling for PCB/Dioxin in water, sediment & its effect on human. • I will Analyze water sampling of different rivers in my province & district
Prevention of pollution in river waters by mass awareness. • Control of illegal fishing through cruel means such as dynamite & toxic chemicals. • Establish NGO’S/ village development committees for the control of pollution & illegal fishing in rivers. • provide training opportunity to community regarding the control of water pollution. • Prepare magazines, pamphlets, manuals, guidelines regarding the prevention of water pollution & contamination.
Mass awareness through media regarding pollution control & clean environment. • Delivered lectures, seminars on environmental problems & issues. • Collect analysis data & statistical data relating to water pollution. • Enforcement of Act& ordinance regarding environment. • Request to the concerned authority for providing GC-Ms, ELISA KIT for the analysis of pesticides in water.( Japanese products )
