Executive Summary

1. INTRODUCTION

India is the third-largest crude steel producer in the world. In FY18, India produced 104.98

million tonnes (MT) of finished steel. Crude Steel production during 2017-18 stood at 102.34

MT. Exports and imports of finished steel stood at 1.35 MT and 1.89 MT, during Apr-Jun

2018.

Steel consumption is expected to grow 5.7 per cent year-on-year to 92.1 MT in 2018. India’s

steel production is expected to increase from 102.34 MT in FY18 to 128.6 MT by 2021. The

Government of India has allowed 100 per cent foreign direct investment (FDI) in the steel

sector under the automatic route.

India’s per capita consumption of steel grew at a CAGR of 3.96 per cent from 46 kgs in

FY08 to 65.25 kgs in FY17. The figure stood at 68 kgs during April-February 2017-18.

National Steel Policy 2017 seeks to increase per capita steel consumption to the level of 160

kgs.

from 31200 TPA to 76200 TPA & Production of 76200 TPA TMT Bars.

PFR

2.3 NEED FOR THE PROJECT AND ITS IMPORTANCE TO THE COUNTRY AND/

OR REGION

The demand for steel in the country is currently growing at the rate of over 8% and it is

expected that the demand would grow over by 10% in the next five years. However, the

steel intensity in the country remains well below the world levels. Our per capita

consumption of steel is around 110 pounds as compared to 330 Pounds for the global

average. This indicates that there is a lot of potential for increasing the steel consumption

in India. To meet the increasing demand and to stimulate economic growth Regency

TMT Private Limited has proposed the project.

As per the report of the Working Group on Steel for the 12 th Five Year Plan, there exist

many factors which carry the potential of raising the per capita steel consumption in the

country. These include among others, an estimated infrastructure investment of nearly a

trillion dollars, a projected growth of manufacturing from current 8% to 11-12%, increase

in urban population to 600 million by 2030 from the current level of 400 million,

emergence of the rural market for steel currently consuming around 10 kg per annum

buoyed by projects like Bharat Nirman, PradhanMantri Gram SadakYojana, Rajiv

Gandhi AwaasYojana among others. At the time of its release, the National Steel Policy

2005 had envisaged steel production to reach 110 million tonnes (MT) by 2019-20.

However, based on the assessment of the current ongoing projects, both in greenfield and

brownfield, the Working Group on Steel for the 12th

Five Year Plan has projected that

domestic crude steel capacity in the county is likely to be 140 MT by 2016-17 and has the

potential to reach 149 MT if all requirements are adequately met.

3.4 PROJECT DESCRIPTION WITH PROCESS DETAILS

Induction Furnace

The company will manufacture M.S. Billets by using sponge Iron and scrap as raw

materials. Silicon & manganese are added as alloying elements using medium frequency

induction furnace and continues casting technology.

In the Induction Melting Furnace the iron melts at a temperature of about 16500C. When

the total charge gets melted into hot liquid metal then the metallurgy of steel in terms of

carbon, phosphorous content, alloy elements etc is controlled. Based upon the

composition of the molten steel, additives like Silico, Manganese will be added to get the

requisite composition and grade of steel. The molten steel (hot billets) from induction

furnace is directly transferred to continuous casting machine then to Roller Table high

Speed Conveying and to rolling line to form TMT bar.

Rolling Mill

In the new project molten metal from the induction furnace will be poured directly to

produce TMT bars in rolling mill bypassing the process of reheating of M.S. Billets.

The molten steel (hot billets) from induction furnace is directly transferred to continuous

casting machine then to Roller Table high Speed Conveying and to rolling line to form

TMT bars. In order to produce TMT bars water quenching is done under the controlled

conditions where the surface temperature falls from 900 to 4000C due to the intense and

uniform cooling. This makes the surface of the bar a hardened structure and the core

remains the soft. This process increases the tensile strength of the material while keeping

high ductility and weldability.

Billets in molten condition will be directly fed to Hot Billet Rolling machine thus saving

of fuel & electricity.

No need of storing coal required in Gasifier for conventional rolling mill

No space will be required for storage of Billets and fly ash.

Easy handling of Process.

No additional SPM emission as coal will not be used.

No generation of Fly Ash.

Analysis of proposal (Final Recommendations)

8.1 FINANCIAL AND SOCIAL BENEFITS WITH SPECIAL EMPHASIS ON THE

BENEFITS TO THE LOCAL PEOPLE INCLUDING TRIBAL POPULATION

The proposed project will result in improvement of infrastructure as well as upliftment of

social structure in the area. The people residing in the nearby areas will be benefited

directly and indirectly. It is anticipated that the proposed expansion will provide benefits

for the local people in two phases i.e. during construction phase as well as during

operational stage of the plant.

CONSTRUCTION PHASE

Employment

The major benefit due to the proposed expansion project will be in the sphere of

generating employment for people of that area. The proposed expansion project will

benefit local population.

OPERATIONAL PHASE

Employment

The manpower requirements for the operational phase after the proposed project will be

about 150 people. In addition, there will be an indirect employment for skilled/ semi

skilled people during project life. All attempts will be made to employ suitable, locally

available, skilled personnel from the nearby area. In case of non-availability of skilled

persons, people will be employed from outside area.

Transportation

There will also be small increase in the vehicular traffic due to passenger transport. This

increase in traffic will not have any consequence to warrant special mention. One should

expect that the increased passenger load in the sector would prompt the state government/

private movers to start new and frequent public transport services to this area, bringing

upliftment to the whole locality.

PFR

24 PECS, Nagpur

Other Benefits

New Steel Trading Private Limited is equally conscious for the all round socio-economic

development and is committed to raise the quality of life and social well being of

communities where it operates. The activities under CER will be local need basis with

focus on Health, Education, Infrastructure Development, Drinking water, Sanitation and

Environment Conservation.

PFR

25 PECS, Nagpur

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

a) AIR MANAGEMENT

There will be two major source of air pollution in the plant, fugitive emissions from various

material handling and transfer points and flue gases generated from various combustion

units. Dust and fume extraction system will be provided for Induction Furnace. Dust and

fumes will be collected with the help of suction hood and cleaned with the help of bag filters

and cleaned air will be discharged through stacks and discharged through stack, so that the

dust concentration will be well within the prescribed standard.

Height of the all the flue gas discharge facilities will be designed as per CPCB norms. The
