India has traditionally been one of the major producers of steel in the world. Till the 1990s the steel industry of India was regulated and controlled by government policies. After the economic reforms of the early 1990s, the Indian steel industry has evolved significantly to conform to global standards. India has set a vision to be an economically developed nation by 2020. The steel industry is expected to play a major role in India's economic development in the coming years. The steel industry of India has a very high growth potential and is expected to register significant growth in the coming decades. India is expected to emerge as a strong force in the global steel market in coming years. The two major aspects that are expected to play a significant role in the growth of the steel industry in India are – • Abundant availability of iron ore in the country • The country has well established facilities for steel production The major sectors where consumption of steel is expected to grow in the coming years are – • Construction

3 Prefeasibility Report Shri Girija Alloy & Power (I) Pvt Ltd

• Housing • Ground transportation • Hi-tech engineering industries such as power generation, petrochemicals, fertilizers

2.3 DEMAND AND SUPPLY GAP

The current scenario of the Indian steel industry indicates that there is huge growth potential in this industry. The per capita-consumption of steel in India, according to latest available estimates, is only 29 kg. This is much less compared to the global average of 140kg. The per capita consumption level of developed nations like the United States of America is 400kg. In this respect, one of the major initiatives that need to be taken is to focus on increasing the consumption of steel in the rural areas of India. The potential for the growth of consumption of steel in the rural areas of India for purposes like rural housing, rural infrastructure, etc is high which needs to be tapped efficiently. In order to realize the growth potential in the steel industry of India, it is essential to ensure that the industry can remain competitive. One of the major aspects in this regard is the availability of inputs. Shortage of inputs like coke has led to increase in costs earlier. Moreover proper infrastructure facilities like transport infrastructure, power etc are of prime importance in maintaining the competitiveness of the industry. Most developed countries have regulations that are aimed to protect the domestic steel industry. The Indian steel industry has comparatively much lesser protection through regulations. Proper regulatory measures should be adopted by the government to protect the domestic steel industry.

2.4 IMPORTS V/S INDIGENOUS GENERATION

The National Steel Policy 2005 had projected consumption to grow at 7% based on a GDP growth rate of 7-7.5% and production of 110 million tonne by 2019-20. These estimates will be largely exceeded and it has been assessed that, on a 'most likely scenario' basis, the crude steel production capacity in the country by the year 2011-12 will be nearly 124 million tonne. The table below shows the trend in production for sale, import, export and consumption of total finished steel (alloy + non-alloy) in the country:

3.5 MANUFACTURING PROCESS 3.5.1 FERRO ALLOYS:

Ferroalloys are alloys of iron with chromium, manganese, silicon, or other elements. Ferro Alloys will be produced by smelting the ore which contains one or more of the said elements so as to impart its properties to the alloy. Ferroalloys are essential additives in steel for imparting desired properties of steel to suit varied applications.

8 Prefeasibility Report Shri Girija Alloy & Power (I) Pvt Ltd

It can be said that no steel can be made without use of one or more of the several Ferro Alloys. Within each of these ferroalloy products there are variants whose classification is based on the extent of carbon present in that alloy. The variants observed under each of these product categories are explained in this section. Generally Ferro Alloys are used as de oxidizers and alloy additives in the steel manufacturing. The Ferro-alloys Industries are categorized into two main groups.

Bulk Ferro Alloys: These include products like Ferro Chrome mainly used in stainless steel making and Ferro Manganese, Sillico-Manganese, Ferro Silicon used by Alloy steel producers.

Noble Ferro Alloys: These include Ferro Molybdenum, Tungsten, Vanadium, and other noble elements which find application in steel making.

By using different ferroalloys and those having different carbon concentration levels, various steel products are obtained

. THE PROCESS: Ferro Alloys will be smelted at about 1350 – 1500 deg.C Temperature. This will be achieved by a conventional, Open Submerged Electric Arc Furnace. The three carbon Electrodes, partially submerged in the charge, are supported on hydraulic cylinders for upward and down ward movements to maintain the desired electrical conditions.

The body of the furnace is cylindrical in shape, and is lined with firebricks, silicon carbide bricks and carbon tamping paste. Three tap – holes are provided at 120 degree apart for drawing out both the molten alloy and Slag. During the repair works one of the tap – holes the other will function as stand by.

The weighed raw materials will be thoroughly mixed in the proper proportion before charging into the furnace, through Skip, Telfer hoist and charging chutes. The charge will be pushed near to electrodes on Furnace top by a Charging Stoker

As the charge enters the smelting zone, the alloy formed by chemical reactions of the oxides and the reductants, will be heavy, and gradually settles at the bottom. At regular intervals the furnace will be tapped. The tap hole will be opened by Oxygen lacing pipe and after tapping is completed, it will be closed by clay plugs.

The liquid alloy and Slag will be collected in a Ladle and Slag will be over flowed to sand beds. The metal being retained in the ladle having a Nozzle at bottom which allows metal flows on to C.I. Pans. After solidification the cakes will be broken manually to required lump size.

SILICO MANGANESE & FERRO MANGANESE PROCESS:

Manganese ore is in the form of MnO, SiO2, FeO, Al2O3, MgO and other Oxides. MnO is reduced to Mn and FeO is reduced to Fe taking Carbon from Coke / Coal and the product is produced as Si Mn /Fe Mn. The other oxides are simultaneously removed as Slag along with metal. The Slag and Metal are separated by virtue of its self differential gravities after collecting in the ladle. The ladle will have a nozzle in the bottom portion through which the metal flows in to C.I. Pans.

FERRO SILICON PROCESS:

Ferro Silicon is a Slagless process. Quartz is the main raw material which contains 99% of

SiO2. Charcoal and a small percentage of Coal is used as reductants. Mill Scale / Iron Ore is added to obtain Ferro Silicon. Fe O is reduced to Fe and Si O2 is reduced to Si Combining with Carbon and produced as Fe Si.

Sl. No. Constituent Percentage 1 Si 70 – 75% 2 C 7 - 8% 3 S 0.05% 4 P 0.4% 10 Prefeasibility Report Shri Girija Alloy & Power (I) Pvt Ltd

FERRO CHROME It is produced by smelting Chrome Ore, reductant (coke) with fluxes in a submerged electric arc furnace. In this process, Chromium Oxide & Iron Oxides are reduced to Chromium & Iron and simultaneously combine with carbon to form alloy while other constituents form slag. The molten alloy & slag are tapped out from time to time through tap hole and collected in pans or ladles. Alloy is of higher specific gravity material than slag. Hence, it segregates and remains at the bottom of the pan or the ladle where the slag rises to top and over flows from it to other pan/ladle/ sand beds. If it is collected in ladle, again it is to be casted to form cakes. When it is sufficiently cooled, cakes are broken to required sizes and manually cleaned the slag if it is in surface of the alloy pieces. Slag is a byproduct and reject material having very limited utility.

NOBLE FERRO ALLOYS

Noble Ferro alloys are manufactured through Alumino-Thermit process

Principal of Thermit Process:

Aluminothermic Process aims at the production of Ferro Alloys from the oxides of elements by reduction with Aluminum powder using exothermic heat of the reaction for smelting purpose. The highly exothermic reaction raises the temperature of the reaction to above 20000C or even more.

Metal Oxide + Al Metal + Al2O3

On ignition of the reaction mixture consisting of the oxide ore whose metal is to be obtained with aluminum powder/telic, aluminum readily reacts with the oxygen of the metal oxide

11 Prefeasibility Report Shri Girija Alloy & Power (I) Pvt Ltd

liberating heat, which raises the temperature of the reacting substance and reacts thereby yielding the Ferro Alloys Slag.

CALCIUM ALUMINATE BASED SYNTHETIC SLAG

Calcium aluminates are salt of aluminic acid & calcium hydroxide.The composition of various minerals are obtained by heating calcium oxide (lime) and aluminium oxide (bauxite) together at high temperatures (400oC to 1600oC). Calcium Aluminate for Synthetic Slag is made of select raw material of Calcium and Aluminium, blended at a proper proportion, ground to powder, pelletized after churning, sintered or melted in kiln.
