2.0 INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT AND PROPONENT M/s Sharu Special Alloys Pvt. Ltd. is already manufacturing Steel Ingot & forged roll at

Village- Gobindgarh, adjoining Phase-VII, Focal Point Ludhiana, Punjab. It is proposed to

enhance the capacity of unit by replacing the existing furnace of 6 TPH with two no Induction

furnaces of 20TPH capacities each, Concast and a rolling mill. It is also proposed to make

structural steels i.e. Round, MS Bars, TMT Bars, wire rod & Flats. The total project cost of the

unit after expansion will be Rs 27.55 Crores. The projects have already 4.5 acres land. No

additional land is required for expansion. The capacity of the unit after expansion will be 1,

72,800 TPA steel Billets/Ingots, 3300TPA forged roll & 1, 50,000 TPA Round, TMT bars,

wire rod, steel bars, channels and flats.

As per G.O.I Notification dated 14/09/2006 any change in product/expansion required

Environmental Clearance. Accordingly it is mandatory to submit Form No- I along with Pre-

Feasibility Report and other relevant documents for getting Environmental Clearance. Further,

the project site falls within the “critically polluted areas” Ludhiana as notified by the Central

Pollution Control Board, categorizing the project as Category ‘A’ and the environmental

clearance accorded by the Central Govt. in the MoEF&CC New Delhi. This Prefeasibility

report has, therefore, been prepared to assess the likely impact of the proposed expansion on

various factors which may be affected with the implementation of the programme and to

suggest remedial / precautionary measures, if any.

I. Partner’s Background: M/s Sharu Special Alloys (Pvt.) Ltd is a Private Limited Company. The Directors of the

company are as under:

1. Mr. Naresh Kumar Jain

2. Mr. Gaurav Jain

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 replacing the existing furnace 6 TPH with two no

Induction furnaces of 20TPH capacities each, Concast and rolling mill. Addition in the existing


6


plant would improve the overall profitability of the project making it financially more viable.

The production details of unit existing & proposed are as under:

MS bars, wire road)

NIL 1,50,000 1,50,000

Forged roll 3300 Nil 3300

III. Need for the project and its importance to the country and or region.

India is the world’s third-largest steel producer in 2016. The growth in the Indian steel sector

has been driven by domestic availability of raw materials such as iron ore and cost-effective

labor. Consequently, the steel sector has been a major contributor to India’s manufacturing

output. India’s crude steel output grew 10.7 per cent year-on-year to 25.76 million tons (MT)

during January-March 2017. India’s crude steel output during April 2017 grew by 5.4 per cent

year-on-year to 8.107 MT. India’s finished steel exports rose 102.1 per cent to 8.24 MT, while

imports fell by 36.6 per cent to 7.42 MT in 2016-17. India’s steel exports rose 142 per cent in

April 2017 to 747,000 tons over April 2016, while imports fell by 23 per cent to 504,000 tons

in April 2017 over April 2016. Total consumption of finished steel grew by 3.4 per cent year-

on-year at 6.015 MT during April 2017 (Source: Indian Brand Equity Foundation).

For a developing country like India, Iron & Steel Industry has a pivotal role to play as a pre-

requisite for industrial, construction and infrastructural development. As per report of World

Steel Association (WSI), India has surpassed US and became third largest producer of Steel.

The region will be benefited by:

Economic up-liftment of suppressed class

Bridging demand –supply gap

Infrastructural development of the area

Employment to locals

Revenue to state exchequer

IX. Quantity of wastes to be generated (liquid and solid) and scheme for their Management/

disposal.

Liquid effluents- Proposed project is based on ZERO discharge. There are no generation trade

effluents from process. The waste water generated from domestic & cooling tower will be treated

through STP and used for cooling purposes/plantation within premises.

Solid Waste - Slag will be disposed off to approved manufacturer of concrete blocks, pavers and tiles. Used oil

from DG sets is being used as lubricant/ will be sold to authorized recycler & dust from APCD sent to

M/S Madhav Alloys (P) Limited for metal recovery or TSDF site.

Flue Gas Management

The air pollution will be the result of the heating and melting process in the induction furnace. The

emissions (PM) coming out of the mouth of the furnace crucible need treatment before discharging it

into the atmosphere.

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 1800-2000 mg/NM3. Most of the particulates


19


(about 75%) are expected to have size in the range of 1-5 microns. The emissions (after dilution) will

have temperature of <150°C.

The PM level in the gas emission, at discharge point, shall be maintained below 50mg/NM3 by

adequate & appropriate APCS. Additionally, the stack height requirements for discharge of process

emissions will also be complied.

development.

The cooling water will be re-circulated and blow down will be

dispose off through septic tank.

No water is used in manufacturing process and no waste

water requiring disposal is generated.

Impact on Noise

Construction/

Operational Phase

The expected noise levels of some of the proposed equipment like

Pumps (82-95 dB (A), Induction furnace (95-105 dB (A), DG sets

(100-120 dB (A).

The above noise levels are worked out without mitigation measures.

With the mitigation measures the noise levels will be further restricted

within very short distance from the source point.

The operators/personnel working near the noise sources in the Plant

will be provided with earmuffs and earplugs

More than 33% of green belt will be developed around the plant

premises which will act as noise abatement measures.

Noise Management There will be no danger of noise pollution from plant. The green

belt (plantation of dense trees across the boundary) helps in

reducing noise levels in steel plant as a result of attenuation of

noise generated due to plant operations and transportation.

Earmuffs will be used while running the equipments of the plant.

D.G sets will be provided with acoustic to control the noise level

within the prescribed limit.

A high standard of maintenance will be practiced for plant

machinery and equipments, which helps to avert potential noise

problems.

Personal Protective Equipment like earplugs and earmuffs will be

provided to the workers exposed to high noise level.


30


Regular monitoring of noise level will be carried out.

Solid Waste Management Management APCD dust will be sent to M/S Madhav Alloys (P) Limited for

metal recovery or TSDF site and slag from process will be sold to

approved manufacturers of tiles, pavers & blocks.

Green belt Management Management

Green belt development in and around the plant site helps to

attenuate the pollution level.

Out of the total plant area approx. 15% land is already developed

as green belt and it will be maintained in future also.

Green belt has been/will be developed as per Central Pollution

Control Board (CPCB) guidelines.

Native species have been/ will be planted in consultation with the

local DFO.

7.0 PROPOSED INFRASTRUCTURE

I. Industrial Area (Processing Area):-

The site already having administrative and site control office with latest equipment like computers,

walkie-talkie & computerized weighbridge, printers, fax, Xerox machine, etc. Sufficient power load

exists to meet the current requirement. Water for construction and domestic purpose as well industrial

purposes will be drawn from bore-well.

II. Residential Area (Non Processing Area):-

Labour hut / rest room, toilet, drinking water facility are already provided.

III. Green Belt.

The main objective of the green belt is to provide a barrier between the plant and surroundings areas.

More than 33 % green belt will be developed according to CPCB guidelines.

IV. Social Infrastructure.

There is sufficient number of educational facilities but health facilities are not up to the mark. The

sports and recreational facilities are also not adequate as there is no national or state level sports

complex; however an indoor / outdoor stadium of lower hierarchy is available within the town. One

cinema and two clubs also exist in town.

V. Connectivity (Traffic and Rail/Metro/Water ways etc)

The regional road network comprises of Kharar-Ludhiana G.T. Road (NH-95) and forms the major

spine. In fact the entire road network gravitates along this major spine.
