EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Indian steel industry is poised for faster growth in the decades ahead as the industrial

and economic development of the country gains pace. As per the review report of

National Steel Policy approved by the Cabinet, titled “Transformation of the Steel

Sector" published in 2017, the total steel consumption of finished steel has been

estimated to touch 230 MT in 2030-31 (as per study carried out Ministry of Steel,

INSDAG, MECON & based on the premise that 60-65 % of steel production in 2030-31

shall be coming through BF-BOF route and rest through EAF/IF route) from the existing

production levels of 97.936 MT (in 2016-17 as per Annual report 2017 published by

Ministry of Steel). Even after approximately doubling the production capacity, which

currently stands at about130 MT of Crude steel, the per capita domestic consumption of

61 kg would continue to be substantially below the world average of 208 Kg per capita.

There is good prospect of domestic steel consumption growing to 161 kg per capita by

2030-31. The national steel policy has set a target of 300 million tonne (MT) of steel

production by 2030-31.

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 production in India from 1.5 MT in 1950-51 to about 128

MT in 2016-2017. Despite the above growth in the steel sector, the per capita finished

steel consumption continues to remain at a level of about 61 kg per capita only, compared

to 208 Kg per capita in the world. Further, with nearly 17% of the world population,

India‟s contribution is only of the order of 6.0% of world steel production (in 2016-

2017). Hence, short-term and long-term strategies are necessary in planning the

development of the steel industry in the country to improve the level of per capita steel

consumption. The growth of the steel industry significantly contributes to economic

growth of the Nation as well as to the region as it generates employment both directly and

also due to development of downstream industries. The infrastructural and other social

amenities grow in the region leading to overall development of the region.

India enjoys certain natural advantages which lends it a competitive edge to emerge as a

location of choice for steel manufacture. Some of the key advantages can be summarized

as:-

Access to high quality iron ore.

Competitive labour costs.

Skilled labour force with mining and steel making experience.

High domestic growth drivers and low per capita consumption.

Proximity to key consuming market.

IRON ORE

India has abundant deposits of high quality iron ore, particularly along the eastern and

central region of the country. Of its 17 bn MT of iron ore reserves, one of the largest in

the world, a large part(about 75%) is high grade hematite, with an iron content of more

than 63%. This is a major reason why the country is emerging as a prime destination of

fresh steel capacity addition.

COAL

As per Geological Survey of India estimates, India has coal reserves of 245 bn MT.

However, a majority of these deposits comprise of the non-coking coal variety (thermal

coal), whereas coking coal reserves are only around 32 bn MT, or 13%. What it implies is

that while for primary steel production India has to rely on imported coking coal,

abundant non-coking coal reserves make it an ideal place for the secondary route of steel

making (the sponge iron route).

LOWER LABOUR COSTS

Other than natural endowments of raw material resources, India enjoys lower labour costs

vis-à-vis major steel producing countries in the developed world. Also, with an almost

century-old legacy of iron and steel making and a strong technical pool of population,

there is an abundance of skilled workforce and an inherent experience in iron and steel

making.

Brief description of nature of the project

Proposed project:

All unused iron ore fines can be pelletized. The iron ore fines which is available in

huge quantity can be pelletize for further utilization in DRI and BF.

The basis of the process is to transfer in the pelletized iron fines into hardened & solid

pellets that can be used as blast furnace feed or direct reduction kiln feed. The

transformation is achieved by the pellet‟s machine & dryer. The drying pellets will be

dropped in to a cooling hopper. The complete cool pellets will be transported. The

pellets will be partially dried by natural atmospheric air & final dried by dryer/heating

chamber. Resulting in the iron fines pellets being the most energy efficient system for

producing hard & solid pellets.

2.2 Need of the project and its importance to the country

The Indian steel industry is poised for faster growth in the decades ahead as the industrial

and economic development of the country gains pace. As per the review report of

National Steel Policy approved by the Cabinet, titled “Transformation of the Steel

Sector" published in 2017, the total steel consumption of finished steel has been

currently stands at about130 MT of Crude steel, the per capita domestic consumption of

61 kg would continue to be substantially below the world average of 208 Kg per capita.

There is good prospect of domestic steel consumption growing to 161 kg per capita by

also due to development of downstream industries. The infrastructural and other social

amenities grow in the region leading to overall development of the region.

The project is needed to facilitate meeting of production requirements and contribute to

the Steel Production in the country as per National Steel Policy to bridge the gap between

demand and supply.In view of the encouraging economic growth in the country, which

is likely to continue in the future M/s Narayani Pellets Pvt Ltd has taken the decision

and set up a Iron Ore Pellet Plant.

2.3 Demand and supply gap

The Pellet market consists of a group of sellers controlling a majority of Pellet

capacity worldwide. Long term contracts for supply of Pellets are the norm in the

industry. Some of the largest Pellet manufacturers are from Latin America & Sweden.

The market leader in the industry is CVRD (Brazil) whose prices are generally

considered as benchmark price for pellets. In India some of major iron ore pellets

producers are MSPL, Jindal, Tata Steel, Godavari, Sarda Group, etc. looking after the

demand of iron ore pellets in Vidarbha region the location has been finalized.

In the export market, the present and future DRI/HBI producers in Southeast Asia,

Middle East and North Africa have given them a definite advantage over the suppliers

from Brazil, North America and Sweden.

Steel Demand Forecast by Gross Domestic Products (GDP)

Domestic demand for steel can be related to GDP. Analysis of data for the last several

years shows a very high level of correlation between GDP and steel demand. On

conservative basis, assuming present growth rate of 8% to be constant (as projected

by Finance Ministry) the projected demand with respect to this growth rate is as

shown below.

In India 90% of steel is consumed by 15% of the population while the balance 10%

goes to remaining 85% population. India being a developing country, it is definite that

moderate urbanization of some rural area is to take place in the near future, thereby

boosting the consumption of steel to a considerable extend. In view of this authors



PECS, Nagpur

opine that the projected demand of steel by year 2012 would be around 60 million

tones.

Also out of 60 million tonnes of steel it has been estimated that around 45 million

tonnes of steel shall be produced through Blast Furnace route. With a moderate use of

iron ore pellet (20% in burden) the demand for pellet would be around 20 million

tones.

2.4 Domestic /export market

Domestic

Looking after the domestic demand of Pellets the 3,00,000 TPA of Pellets produced in

this plant is having a ready domestic market.

Export Market – DR Pellets

In the export market, the present and future DRI / HBI producers in Southeast Asia

and the Middle East / North African regions are the potential destinations, as they

would be natural markets for pellets. Supplies from Bahrain, Brazil and Sweden are

meeting the present DR pellet requirements Middle East/North African countries.

With transportation costs being a competitive factor, Narayani Pellets Pvt Ltd.

proximity to Southeast Asia, Middle East and North Africa have given a definite

advantage over the suppliers from Brazil, North America and Sweden. DR pellet

supply position to SE Asia, Middle East and North Africa is given below.

The pellet deficiency in the target market is being currently met by South America

(CURD, Samarco) and Europe. M/s Narayani Pellets Pvt Ltd can replace part of

these supplies, as the location advantage of the plant to the end users will provide a

minimum freight advantage of US$ 4 to US$ 5 per metric ton. Further, Indian pellet

producers will grant the customer the benefit of lower lead-time for supplies, lower

voyage time and lesser inventory holding costs.

2.5 Employment generation

M/s Narayani Pellets Pvt. Ltd. will recruit about 90-100 people in the proposed

pellet plant. Local people will be given preference as per the eligibility.

3.5.1 Process Description

M/s Narayani Pellets Pvt Ltd will manufacture pellet 0.30 million-tons/ year capacity. The

plant will be working for 300 days. Iron Ore fines & waste oxide are purposely mixed to

obtain the required properties. There are three stages involved to produce Pellets from

raw materials:

1. Raw material preparations.

2. Formation of green pellets.

3. Drying of green pellets for removal of moisture.

The raw materials iron ore fines stored in the hopper. The iron ore fines is then fed to

screen & all below 3 mm iron ore fines are store in a silo. The over-sized material are

feed to grinder for grinding & reefed to screen. The finely screened material is then fed

to the mixture through the hopper and binder betonites/resin, coke, dolomite/lime power

and additional water are added to it in a definite proportion. The wet material is fed to the

pellets machine which rotated at a predetermined rpm & pellets will form in disc

pelletizers. These pellets are called green pellets as they do not have the required

strength. These pellets are made during inclined rotation of disc pelletizers various sizes

of green pellets are formed and separated by screening. The pellets are dried by

pulverised coal burning.

The broken green pellets are re-feed to mixture. The pellets are dried by pulverised coal

burning and is conveyed to stock yard. The pellets attainted the necessary strength after

the drying is completed. The pellets are then cooled & send to stock yard. The pellets

made out of a mixture of Iron Ore & binder strong enough to stand the vertical load in a

blast furnace & DRI rotary kiln ,

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 plant 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 project will be in the sphere of generating

employment for people of that area. The proposed project will benefit local population.

OPERATIONAL PHASE

Employment

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

about 90-95 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.

Other Benefits

CER amount as per OM dated 01-05-2018 will be spend towards development activities

of nearby villages as per the requirement of local people.

Pollution Control Measures

Air pollution

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. ESP, Bag Filters and Multicyclones will be provided as air pollution

control system of specified size followed by 30 m. stack and cleaned air will be

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.

Traffic Details

There will be increase of only 60 to 63 trucks per day due to the proposed project.

Proper Dust Suppression is proposed in the premises, sprinkling on internal roads, regular

check up & maintenance of vehicles, it will be ensured that all trucks/dumper will be

covered by Tarpaulin.

Transportation

Raw material & Finished Products will be transported by road.

It will be ensured that all trucks carrying raw material are tarpaulin covered.

Internal roads are being Tarred / Concreted with installation of water sprinklers to

suppress dust due to transportation.

For Products

1. Pellets 30 Trucks/Day

For Raw Material

2. Iron Ore Fines 31 Trucks/Day

3. Bentonite 1 Trucks/Day

4. Coke / Coal 1 Trucks/Day

Total 63 Trucks/ Day

Water Pollution

The wastewater generated from the process will be treated in settling tank and reused in

the process. The domestic wastewater generated will be treated in Packaged Type STP.

Noise Pollution

Noises from fans, centrifugal pumps, electrical motors etc. will be kept in control so that

the ambient noise level shall not exceed 75dBA during daytime and 70dBA during

nighttime. Noise pollution control measures will be provided in respective departments

by way of providing silencers soundproofs cubicles / covers and proper selection of less

noise prone machinery and by development of green belt.

Solid Waste

The solid waste generated from the pelletization plant is reused and recycled. The dust from

de-dusting equipment is reused in the process. The sludge generated from the sewage

treatment plant is used as manure for green belt development which enriches the soil

quality.

Environmental Monitoring

Necessary provisions for routine monitoring of stack emissions, ambient air quality, noise

level, water quality as required by the regulations will also be provided.

OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY

Following measures shall be implemented:

Appropriate design and layout of facilities to avoid crossover of different

activities and flow of processes;

Material and product handling shall remain within restricted zones under

supervision;

Regular maintenance and repair of lifting, electrical, and transport equipment

shall be conducted.

Appropriate PPE (e.g. gloves and shoes, goggles, and clothing to protect against

heat radiation and liquid metal & Slag).
