  • 1. BACKGROUND CCL Intends to Set up a Coking Coal Washery with Raw
    1. BACKGROUND CCL intends to set up a coking coal washery with raw coal linkage from Tapin North OCP, Tapin South OCP, Parej East OCP and Jharkhand OCP on Build- Own-Operate (BOO) concept. The raw coal throughput of the washery will be 4.0 Mtpa. The expected monthly average ash content of Raw Coal is around 33.4% on ‘adb’ (air dried basis) and likely to vary within the range of 31.7 to 35.2% on ‘adb’. The washery will be designed to produce three products viz. washed/ clean coal, washed coal (power) & rejects. Projection of yield has been done on the basis of the test results of 4 number of seams viz. IV/V, VA, VII and VIIA/VIIB (combined) of Tapin North OCP conducted by CIMFR.The composite raw coal ash of Seam IV/ V (combined) & Seam VA, Seam VII ,Seam VII A/VII B (combined) contribution of which are 33.8%, 27.4% ,25%,40.7% respectively, works out to 31.725%. Hence, the average ash of raw coal feed to washery has been considered as 31.725%. 2. LOCATION The proposed washery will be located in the vicinity of existing Kedla Washery of CCL in West Bokaro Coalfield, Hazaribagh Area, District- Ramgarh, State Jharkhand. 3. COMMUNICATION The proposed site for washery is well connected by road and rail. This site is approachable through a 20 km long metalled road from Ghato and connecting NH-33 at Charhi. NH-33 connects Ranchi and Hazaribagh. Another approach is through a 13 km all weather road connecting Gidi washery and crossing NH-33 at Kuju.
