The beginning of the third millennium has been characterized by a progressive increase in the demand for fossil fuels, which has caused a steep rise in price of petroleum product. At the same time, several environmental disasters have increased the sensitivity of world-wide public opinion towards the effect that environmental pollution has on human health and climate change. These conditions have fostered a renewed interest in renewable energy like solar energy, wind energy, biomass and solid wastes. In addition, the disposal of municipal solid waste (MSW) has become a critical and costly problem. The traditional landfill method requires large amounts of land and contaminates air, water and soil. The paper takes the Waste to Energy Plant as the research subject and takes the samples of the Total Suspended Particulates (TSP) and Particulate Matter on all sides of the Plant as sample parameter to analyze the pollution and the pattern of pollution distribution. The study shows that the concentration of TSP and PM is very high and exceeds the national limit value .The study also evaluate the extent of environmental health risk from WTE plant along with waste dump site .In this site a Bio medical waste incinerator is also in working stage. Air monitoring has been done in all directions of selected site within 2 km radial distance from WTE plant. This area has WTE plant along with landfill site and biomedical waste incinerator .Two major colleges and residential habitants in its nearby premises are comes under the affected areas.
