PRE FEASIBILITY REPORT FOR RECOMISSIONING OF EXISTING MICRO BLAST FURNACE AT AMAGHATA, GOBINDPUR, DHANBAD (JHARKHAND)

Executive Summary of Existing Plant

INTRODUCTION

Steel being a basic commodity for all industrial activities, quantum of its consumption is considered as an index of industrial prosperity. Since independence, there has been a substantial growth in the steel sector in India from 1.5 MTPA in 1950-51 to about 78.88 MTPA at present.

The National Steel Policy of India has declared a target of producing 110 millions tonnes of steel by the year 2020, up from 78.88 million tonnes at present. This has given an incentive to all the major steel producers of India to work out to add capacity.

M/s Parth Ispat (India) Private Limited (PIPL) is having a micro blast furnace with matching pig casting facilities along with Induction furnace to manufacture cast iron insert for railways at Amaghata, Gobindpur, Dhanbad(JHK) India. M/s PIPL is a leading manufacturer of SG Iron Insert products.

The project proponent want to re-commissioning of the existing micro blast furnace remain in-operative due to technical reason through refurbishing at village Amaghata, Block Gobindpur District Dhanbad in Jharkhand.

The micro blast furnace will produce liquid iron, which can be used to cast into foundry grade pig iron. This cast pig iron can be used in induction furnace for converting it into steel for casting of cast iron insert for railway track. The major plant facilities are as follows:  1x23 m3 MBF  Blast heating system  Blowing system  Dry gas cleaning system Chapter 00 Page 1 of 3 ‘© 2014 PECS All rights reserved’

Water Requirement (m3/day):15 m3 (Domestic= 03 KLD+ Industrial Cooling= 12 KLD)

Power Electrical power will be sourced from DVC 750 KVA. DVC has agreement to supply the power.

Pollution Prevention and Control Measures

The pollution in the form of solids, liquids and gases may generate from steel making units, therefore adequate pollution control equipments would be installed to limit the emission of pollutants within statutory norms. There is no liquid process effluent from the MBF. The BF gas from MBF is cleaned in gas cleaning through dust catcher, cyclonic separator and finally to bag house. Clean gas is used for generating hot blast for MBF. Dust collected from dust catcher and bag house are used in for land filling purpose. Slag arise from BF is granulated and sold to Cement Manufacturer.
