The plant has been set up with the primaryobjective of utilizing the waste product of Steel manufacturing slagand Fly Ash produced by Tata Power Limited (TPL) which was earlierconsidered as solid waste. The present production details are;

Million Tonnes Per Annum

PSC 3.2 4.0 (Max.)Portland PozzolonaCement (PPC))

1.4 1.0 (Max.)

However the production is limited to 4.6 Million Tonnes per annum

The unit is utilizing bulk quantity of Fly–Ash generated by TataThermal Power Station and the Slag generated from Tata Iron & SteelCo. Ltd. (TISCO) in an eco-friendly manner and thus is instrumentalin abating the Pollution in the region in terms of Solid wasteutilization approximate 0.35 MTPA of fly-ash and approximate 2.2MTPA of slag.

The required Clinker produced at LIL sister units Sonadih CementPlant (SCP) and Arasmeta Cement Plant (ACP) is transported toJamshedpur by Rail, Slag from TISCO, Fly Ash from TPL.

The Environmental Clearance for this unit was issued vide letter no J-11011/638/2008- IA II (I) on 19.12.2008 for producing groundcement of 4.6 Million Tonnes per annum(MTPA), with Portland SlagCement at 3.2 MTPA and Portland Pozzolona Cement (PPC) at 1.4MTPA. (Annexure-I)

(III) NEED FOR THE PROJECT AND ITS IMPORTANCE TO THECOUNTRY AND OR REGION

Very purpose of need of project is introduction of new ISS (IndianStandard Specification) for Composite Cement (CC) wherein, Lafargeseeing opportunity for further reduction in CO2 emission &conservation of natural resources by means reducingclinker component which requires Limestone, coal and water therebyreducing Green house gas emission.

The most important raw material for these cements are blast furnaceslag as a byproduct from the iron making process and fly ash as abyproduct from electricity production in coal fired power plants. Theseby-products earlier were seen as waste. In the developed technicalworld, these products were renamed from waste to by-product and areused as raw material in producing the blended cements, namely PSCand PPC. For more utilization of the industrial wastes or by productsand also to minimize the Clinker consumption, there by reduction inPower requirement, better utilization of Solid waste, with outcompromising on the quality of strength, Bureau of Indian Standards(BIS) has introduced Composite Cement as per IS 16415 : 2015whose mix is about 15% - 35 % Fly ash, 20-50% Slag, more than 35%OPC (Clinker + Gypsum). Overall percentage of Slag and Fly Ashshould not exceed 65 % in any case.

Based on the concept of waste to by-product, and in view of thedemand, LIL now proposes to produce Composite Cement to max.Quantity of 1.0 MTPA in addition to PSC and PPC, keeping total

8

production capacity of the plant at 4.6 MTPA for which EC wasgranted.

(IV) DEMAND- SUPPLY GAP

Market demand and projections

Cement growth is expected to be above the GDP growth of thecountry, which is expected to be around 8% for the coming years. TheIndian cement Industry is poised for a period of significant growth andthe demand for cement is expected to match the current availabilityby the end of the current fiscal. Cement demand has registered aCAGR of about 8.5% over the last decade. In fact, at the current levelsof growth, the cement industry may have to add over 90 Million Tonsof cement capacity to meet the demand for cement over the next 5years.

Cement companies were operating at levels below capacity in the pastbut with the demand and supply reaching equilibrium; almost allplants are working at above 90% capacity. The rate of growth incement demand is growing at a faster pace as compared to thecapacity change. This will improve the realizations of the industry inthe coming year.

(V) IMPORTS Vs INDIGENOUS PRODUCTION

India is self sufficient to meet the demands of the market with theGDP projected at 10% in the coming decades and in view of theinfrastructure.

(VI) EXPORT POSSIBILITY

No export is proposed.

(VII) DOMESTIC/EXPORT MARKETS

The entire production is envisaged for the domestic market.

(VIII) EMPLOYMENT GENERATION (DIRECT AND INDIRECT) DUETO THE PROJECT

(VII) RESOURCES OPTIMIZATION/ RECYCLING AND REUSEENVISAGED IN THE PROJECT, IF ANY, SHOULD BE BRIEFOUTLINED

The concept of waste-minimization, recycle/reuse/recover techniques,Energy conservation, and natural resource conservation have beenconsidered and detailed below.

Waste minimization: The plant is presently using about 2.11MTPA of Slag & 0.34 MTPA of ash of TISCO & TPL respectivelywhich otherwise is treated as waste and needs disposal.

In the proposed change - more wet slag will be consumed andmore clinker will be saved.

Reduction of greenhouse gas emissions - CO2

By introducing composite cement we are expecting about 15%increase in cementitious consumption over PPC. Which will bringdown equivalent quantity of clinker consumption there by coal.

For 1.00 MTPA of CC, about 15% Clinker is saved and there byreduction of Green house gases by means of reduction in coalconsumption at clinker manufacturing unit, which is approx.30 million Kg of CO2.
