Mr. Sanjeev Goyal Mr. Sanjeev Kumar Goyal, the Director of the company has more than 2 decades of experience in steel trading. A graduate aged about 49 years attached with the Madhav Group since its inception in year Being a Director of the company he is equally responsible to take decisions for the company. His expertise in Raw material procurement played an important role in the success of the company. He looks after the Raw Material procurement and other General Administration activities of the group company. II. Brief description of nature of the project. In view of the tremendous market potential of Iron & steel, promoters have decided to expand the capacity of the existing Steel Plant by addition of induction furnace of 25T capacity. 9

10 Addition in the existing plant would improve the overall profitability of the project making it financially more viable. The production details of unit existing & proposed are as under: Product Name Existing Additional Total (TPA) (TPA) (TPA) MS Billets : 3,00,000 2,25,000 5, 25,000 TMT Bars : 2,50,000 2,75,000 5,25,000 III. Need for the project and its importance to the country and or region. The role of iron and steel industry is very important for the development of the country, which is one of the fastest growing sector. Iron and steel components are required for the infrastructure development in the country such as real estates, industries, transportation systems ship & aircraft industries. Considering the recent trends in production of steel globally and in India, the national steel policy has projected substantial growth in steel consumption during the next 10 years period. The economy of India is the seventh-largest economy in the world measured by nominal GDP and the third-largest by purchasing power parity (PPP). The country is classified as a newly industrialized country, one of the G-20 major economies, a member of BRICS and a developing economy with an average growth rate of approximately 7% over the last two decades. This growth rate has a great impact on domestic consumption of steel as well as export potential to other countries. As a result of this, the demand for iron & steel remains extremely good, this would continue for next 10 years if not less, since the per capita consumption of steel in India is still very low compared to other developed countries. For rapid development of economy and infrastructure of the country it is necessary to increase the production of steel within the country. National Steel Policy 2005 has the long term goal of having a modern and efficient steel industry of world standards in India. The focus is to achieve global competitiveness not only in terms of cost, quality and product-mix but also in terms of global benchmarks of efficiency and productivity. The Policy aims to achieve over 100 million Metric Tonnes of Steel per year 10

11 by from the level of 38 mt. This implies an annual growth of around 7.3% per year since The above strategic goal is justified on the ground that steel consumption in the world, around 1000 Million Metric tonnes in 2004, is expected to grow at 3.0 percent per annum to reach 1,395 Million Metric Tonnes in 2015, compared to 2 percent per annum in the past fifteen years. China will continue to have a dominant share of the world steel demand. At home, the Indian growth rate of steel production over the past fifteen years was 7.0 percent per annum. The projected growth rate of 7.3 percent per annum in India compares well with the projected national income growth rate of 7-8 percent per annum, given an income elasticity of steel consumption of around 1. IV. Employment Generation (Direct and Indirect) due to the project. Direct employment: - for expansion additional 104 Persons will be required. Total Number of manpower after expansion will be 858 Persons. 11

17 III. Alternate sites considered and the basis of selecting the proposed site, particularly the environmental considerations gone into should be highlighted. Addition will be done within existing premises. So, consideration of alternate site was not applicable. IV. Size or magnitude of operation. Existing plant is having Induction furnace of 2X25T capacity, LRF, Concast and rolling mill. Now they are proposed to enhance the capacity of plant by addition of another induction furnace of 25T capacities. After expansion the production details will be as under: Product Name Existing Additional Total (TPA) (TPA) (TPA) -MS Billets 3, 00,000 2, 25,000 5, 25,000 -TMT Bars 2, 50,000 2, 75,000 5, 25,000 V. Manufacturing Process details (a schematic diagram flow chart showing the project layout, components of the project etc. should be given) A coreless induction furnace operates on a similar principle to a transformer, i.e., the induction coil acts as primary coil, having many turns, and the charge acts as a secondary coil, with only as single turn. When an alternating current is applied to the induction (primary) coil of a furnace, a significantly larger current is induced in the metallic charge materials. The resistance to the passage of induced current within the furnace charge causes the charge to heat up until it eventually melts. Once the metal is molten, the magnetic field generated creates a stirring action in the bath, producing both homogenization of the chemical composition and assimilation of any bath additions. Electrical energy at 11 kv (3-phase) is converted to 750 V, through a transformer. It is further subjected to a 3-phase rectifier and inverter system which converts the power to single phase, high voltage-high frequency. The frequency converter amplifies the frequency from 50 Hz to 500 Hz. This power is applied to 17

18 furnace coil to generate heat. The process flow chart of manufacturing process is given Figure 3.4 & material balance is given in Figure

22 DESCRIPTION EXISTING PROPOSED TOTAL Power Requirement(MW) Source Punjab State Power Corporation Limited, Punjab IX. Quantity of wastes to be generated (liquid and solid) and scheme for their Management/ disposal. Liquid effluents- The water required for the coil cooling of induction furnace is soft water quality and is close loop water cooling system. So, there is no discharge of water cooling circuit. 75 KLD of fresh water used for cooling purposes. Effluent treatment plant has already been installed for treatment of waste water generated from softening plant process. The waste water generated from domestic & cooling tower is being treated through Sewage Treatment and ETP plant and is being used for plantation within premises. There is total add 20 KLD water disposal in which 15 KLD from blow down/softening plant from cooling tower and 5 KLD from domestic effluent. Existing /proposed Solid and Hazardous Waste - 25T of slag is being used in filling of Low lying area and in road making. Used oil from DG (100 liter/annum) sets is used as lubricants in the industry. 1.03TPD dust from APCD is being store in the impervious tank and same is sent to TSDF. Sludge generated (7 kg/annum) from ETP is being stored in impervious pit & disposed off as per norms of state pollution control board. The total quantity of slag after expansion will be 82.5 TPD and will be used for filling of low lying area. We will install one new DG set under expansion and after expansion the quantity of hazards waste will be 150 Liters/annum. APCD dust after expansion will be 5 TPD and will be sent to TSDF. ETP Sludge after expansion will be (7+5) = 12kg/Annum EFFLUENT TREATMENT PROCESS This effluent treatment plant has specifically been designed for the purpose of treatment of waste water discharge from softener and cooling towers blow down. Before its disposal to bring the characteristics of the same up to acceptable norms and standards. Effluent passes through a bar screen & oil and grease trap before collection in an equalization 22

23 sump. Here effluent is mixed thoroughly with the help of an air blower for formation of a uniform stream. After this water is pumped to flash mixer through raw effluent lift pump where chemicals from dosing tanks dosed & mixed with effluent for ph correction. The dosing tanks are fitted with mixing arrangement. Flocculation then takes place at a flocculator cum reaction tank provided for this purpose. Then effluent fed to highly efficient tube settler by gravity, where suspended impurities is settled down and dumped to sludge drying beds. Further, a filtration unit has been included in the treatment process. The treated water from tube settler is stored in pre-filtration tank. Then water is fed to pressure sand filter through filtration pump. It is, basically, in the nature of polishing filter, and besides removing any traces of toxicity, colour and fine particles. Flue Gas Management: Fume Extraction System- Emissions from induction furnace solely depend on nature of the of the charge material. There are two major categories of emissions. The first category relates to the cleanliness of the charge, i.e. rust, dirt, paint, oil, foundry dust, all of which give rise to emissions of dust and fumes, namely organic and metallic. The second category is related to the chemical reactions at the high temperatures which give rise to the metallurgical fumes due to oxidation. Primary Fume Extraction System The furnace fumes will be captured by suction hood above the furnace. It will be used to capture the process fumes during charging and melting operations. The system is user friendly and effective for maximum capture of fumes. The proposed system will be able to capture fumes generated during the melting operations. The fumes collected through the fumes generated during the melting operations. The fumes collected through the hoods will first pass spark arrestor to ensure the sparks lose all their energy and are completely extinguished. It also removes coarse dust along with spark and all the collected dust is discharged through bottom rotary valve. The fumes after spark arrestor go to the fully automatic pulsejet bag filter for filtration of fumes. Bag filter will clean the gases by removing the dust content and clean gases are exhausted by I.D. fans to the chimney. The bag filters are 23

24 cleaned by air pulse jet system. The gaseous emissions will comprise of vapours/fumes, suspended particles, and some gases. The vapours are, primarily, of metals (iron) and metal oxides (in very low quantities). Dust and metal particles also contribute to the suspended particulates. Gaseous pollutants are, mainly, carbon di-oxide, carbon mono-oxide, and nitrogen oxides, though in very low amounts. The suspended particulate matter (SPM) concentration will be about mg/nm 3. Most of the particulates (about 75%) are expected to have size in the range of 1-5 microns. The emissions (after dilution) will have temperature of <100 C. As per the applicable statutory norms by SPCB, the SPM level in the gas emission, at discharge point, shall not exceed 50 mg/nm 3. Additionally, the stack height requirements for discharge of process emissions are also to be complied with.
