Shri. Prithviraj Chavan Chief Minister of Maharashtra

I

1 April 2013

am glad to know that ‘Engineering Review’ Magazine is bringing

out a special issue on the occasion of Indian Steel Exhibition 2013

organized by Ministry of Steel and FICCI in Mumbai from 11 April.

Today though the demand for steel is growing worldwide, in

our country it remains well below the world levels. There is a lot of potential for increasing the steel consumption in India. All the sectors

of Indian Construction Industry, including infrastructure and civil engineering, have witnessed a steady growth rate in the past years.

Foreign investors are also coming here with their projects. There is

also an increased demand of specialized steel in hi-tech engineering industries.

I am sure that this international exhibition will play an important

role in identifying future avenues of business & co-operation and explore new business opportunities for the bene�it of Indian steel industry. This platform will de�initely help steel companies to develop their brand value.

My best wishes to this exhibition and also to this special issue.

( Prithviraj Chavan )

Monnet Group : The dynamic leadership

E

Mr. Sandeep Jajodia, Chairman & Managing Director Monnet Ispat & Energy Limited

stablished in 1994 under the dynamic leadership of Chairman & Managing Director, Mr. Sandeep Jajodia, Monnet Ispat & Energy Limited’s de-risked business portfolio encompasses manufacturing and marketing of Sponge Iron, Steel and Ferro Alloys. Monnet Ispat & Energy Limited (MIEL) is also engaged in mining of minerals like coal & iron ore, besides generation of power for captive consumption.

Setting up its �irst sponge iron unit with a capacity of 1 lac Million Tones Per Annum (MTPA), MIEL, the �lagship company of the Monnet Group of Industries, has grown by leaps and bounds to emerge as the second largest coalbased sponge iron producer in the country. The company is aggressively expanding and is constantly adding value to the area of operations by leveraging its competitive edge of having backward and forward integration of operations.

MIEL from its 1.5 MTPA integrated steel manufacturing facility at Raigarh, Chhattisgarh will be producing TMT BARS, Plate Mill Plates (PMPs), HR Coils and Wire Rods to cater to the rapidly growing infrastructure & construction industry.

The TMT BAR mill having H-V con�iguration under technical know-how from NCO Italy, will produce Fe-500/ Fe-500D grades of reinforcement steel, sizes ranging from 8mm to 40mm and will have variants of HCR/EQR quality.

Implementation of the QUENCHING & TEMPERING enables the production of TMT Bars of higher UTS with guaranteed UTS/YS ratio and higher elongation to ensure excellent Earth quake resistance property. We are planning an extensive distributor/dealer network & company owned stockyards pan India to ensure excellent servicing of demand by maintaining just in time service.

The Plate Mill will be a single stand 4Hi reversible mill with primary & secondary descaler to produce plates of 2500mm width with thickness ranging from 8mm to 110mm.Whereas the Steckel Mill will be producing HR coils of thickness ranging from 2mm to 12mm having width ranging from 900 to 1550mm, processed under close type furnace.

on value added applications like Line Pipes, Boilers, Pressure vessels, reactor vessels, tanks for cryogenic applications and heavy construction etc. The company is also eyeing the high end steel segment by exploring the possibilities of producing Alloy steels rounds for API grade seamless pipes for oil and gas industry & Alloy steel for auto industry as per market demand. On the power generation front, MIEL is generating power for captive consumption and has set up a 60 MW power plant at Raipur & a 230 MW power plant in Raigarh. Monnet Group has gained extensive experience in setting up and operating power plants over the past several years.

Therefore, from producing power for captive consumption, Monnet has transformed to be an Independent Power Producer through its subsidiary Monnet Power Company Limited. Endorsing its strength in this segment, the Blackstone Group has taken 12.5% stake in Monnet Power Company Limited. Monnet Power Company Limited (MPCL), the 87.5% subsidiary of the MIEL, is setting up thermal power plant of IPP of 1050 MW (2 units of 525 MW) backed with pit head captive coal mine in Angul, Orissa. The capacity is further being enhanced to 1710 MW by adding additional 660 MW at the same site.

Leveraging the availability of the pit head coal mine, the Group has ensured availability of coal and has enhanced logistic ef�iciency of transporting coal from coal mine via conveyer belts. This has been of vital importance as it negates dependency of coal from domestic market and considerably reduces logistic costs.

All these factors collectively have enabled this project to be amongst lowest cost generation units in the world. MIEL also has a strong presence in the Mining segment and

| March 2013 | ENGINEERING REVIEW - INDIA STEEL SPECIAL

owns and operates the single largest underground coal mine in India.

With the aim to reduce dependence on market vagaries and to cut down the cost of the vital raw materials for its sponge iron and power plants, Monnet has acquired many coal, iron ore and limestone blocks to emerge as a highly backward integrated player.

Expanding its horizons beyond the country’s frontiers, MIEL through its 100 % owned subsidiary Monnet Global Limited (MGL), has acquired Indonesian Coal Company - PT SarwaSembadaKaryaBumi, in the Jambi province of Sumatra, Indonesia.

Monnet Group also carries out extensive coal washing and bene�iciation for its internal consumption as well as for other users, both in the public and private sectors. The Company’s services in this �ield extend from concept to commissioning under a single roof, and operation of washery both in coking and noncoking sectors. “ At Monnet, we believe that a company’s path to success lies as much in its business and operational strengths as in its ability to think beyond business. Thus, at MIEL, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is not just another initiative; rather it is the fulcrum on which its growth strategy is based.

In keeping with this CSR spirit, Monnet Foundation, a Trust set up

by MIEL, is continually engaged in taking forward the Company’s CSR policy. The Group is committed to bringing about a radical transformation in the quality of communities in and around its facilities in Chhattisgarh and Orissa through positive social upliftment programs covering Health, Education, Women Empowerment, Sustainable Livelihood and Infrastructure Development.” www.engrreview.com

support to India clients though Indian subsidiary. This decision is made to react much faster to clients, supporting in spare-parts and after sales and service activity.

CRANEFRIGOR™- Crane air conditioning units

The heavy duty crane air-conditioning units are unlike domestic mass produced air-conditioners. CRANEFRIGOR™ custom-made and serial produced. The reason is due to the risk involved for crane operator (Man) and crane (Machine) especially in steel mill conditions.

To explain in detail, the temperature in steel melting shop is up to 90°C, extreme dust produced due to debris and material handling, high-heat radiation when the cranes are operated over the furnace, fresh air is not possible in cabin, crane operation dissipate heat in e-room or girders (frequency converters), strong vibrations and �inally aggressive environment. Therefore, every unit tailor made to �it the customer demand. That means the air-conditioning and air purifying are customised to the guidelines of the relevant authorities who ensure that the crane operator enjoys optimal work conditions. Additionally, the sensitive power and control systems are cooled which ensures the crane function reliably.

CRANEFRIGOR™ family :

There are various ranges of products for different applications.

CRANEFRIGOR™ focuses on temperature range between 45°C to 90°C. The unit comes with different models Split type (V model) and Compact type (T model).

Split type (V-Model), Machine parts (lique�ier) and air conditioning part (evaporator) are set up separately. The air conditioning part is connected to the machine parts with refrigerant lines. The air conditioning part is situated directly next to the heat source and works most effectively here. A wide range of individual component combinations allow for an exact output adjustment.

The heat absorbed into the air conditioning unit is dissipated with ambient air.

Compact type (T-Model), the arrangements are much more simple and compact. Whereas the compact air-conditioners the machine part and the air-conditioning part (both modules) can be con�igured in various ways. This construction unit system allows for simple layout and accommodation to their needs. The cooled air is guided through channels to the Crane Bridge or cabin and then supplemented with fresh air, drawn

TECH TRENDS

Metals & Allied Industries : Global & Domestic Scenario leading manufacturer and supplier of commercial vehicle components in North America, has announced a $13 million aluminium wheel capacity expansion plan. The plan entails the addition of aluminium wheel machining and polishing equipment.

Main Downstream Products :

A lump of Bauxite Aluminium : Global Scenario: Various analytical studies have shown that near-term prospects look decent for aluminium. There’s reasonable demand from the aerospace sector, and from the auto sector in North America and higher energy prices are also supporting the market. Analysts have also indicated that global aluminium demand is expected to reach 48.2 Million Tonnes (MT) in 2012, up 7% compared to last year.

The increase will be driven by 11% growth in Chinese demand, as well as higher consumption in India (+10%), Japan (+5%), North America (+5%) and Latin America (+5%), though the growth in Europe will be �lat. As a result, the global market is expected to be balanced.

Indian Scenario : The three major producers of aluminium in India are Hindalco, Vedanta Group and the state owned Nalco, who mine/procure bauxite and convert it into aluminium ingots.

These three together account for the majority of share of total domestic aluminium production.

Bauxite:

India is endowed with large deposits of high quality bauxite ore, amounting to almost 5% of the world’s reserves, totaling to about 3 billion tonnes. At 5.3 million tonnes of aluminium production, (expected capacities by 2015) these reserves are likely to last for 100 years. At 10 million tonnes per annum production, which India should reach between 2020 & 2025 our bauxite Indian postage stamp showing Bauxite, Chalcopyrite, Psilomelane reserves will last for (respectively aluminium ore, copper ore, and manganese ore) from India 45-50 years.

Power (Coal):

All Indian primary metal producers have captive power plants. Green�ield smelters are also being planned, based on captive power generation, using coal. India’s 250 bn tonnes non-coking coal reserves (proven and indicated), are the fourth largest in the world.

The stamp commemorates the 150th anniversary of the Geological Survey of India. Presently, Hindalco is producing different value-added products and services, namely, Fresh wrap aluminium foil, Everlasting aluminium roo�ing sheets, Permashield aluminium waterproo�ing membrane

sheeting, and Al Planet, an exhibition showcasing aluminium products for the construction industry.

Hindalco’s foil business and packaging division (like Superwrap, Freshwrap and Freshpakk semirigid containers) delivers versatile solution to meet the multi-pronged needs of customers. It also offer packaging solutions to well-known brands in the pharmaceuticals, healthcare, dairy, confectionery, processed foods, personal products, tobacco industries and also serve the HVAC (heat, ventilation and air conditioning) segments with radiator and AC �in stock.

In future downstream projects, National Aluminium Company Limited (NALCO) and the Orissa government formally set up the joint venture (JV) company Angul Aluminium Park at an estimated cost of ` 75 crore. Nalco has 49.5 percent stake and the Orissa governmentowned Industrial Infrastructure Development Corporation (IDCO) has 50.5 percent stake.

The park would host ancillary and downstream industries like coal tar pitch, aluminium �luoride, aluminium conductors, aluminium castings, extrusion, slugs and circles. Nalco will supply hot metal from its smelter to the aluminium processing units in the park to ensure considerable savings in consumption of power.

Similarly Hindalco would set up a ` 1000 crore aluminium downstream project near its existing smelter at Hirakud. The project envisages setting up of rolling mill to manufacture high quality aluminium �lat rolled products (FRP) and cans Nalco and Orissa Industrial Infrastructure Development Continue on page no.90

World Aluminium Production Corporation formed a joint venture �irm, Angul Aluminium Park Private Ltd for setting up an Aluminium Park adjacent to Nalco’s smelter plant in Angul district In which both ancillaries and downstream units shall be encouraged to set up their respective units within the proposed Aluminium Park.

Nalco has �loated “an Expression of Interest (EoI) on July 27, 2011, for inviting potential entrepreneurs / manufactures in both ancillaries and downstream category to participate in the proposed Aluminium Park.

Planned growth in Indian aluminium production :

The Indian aluminium industry’s enthusiasm to grow smelting capacity on an ambitious scale here and abroad - the wanderlust is that of Nalco - was not dimmed in any way by the adverse performance of the metal during the recession. According to sources, Nalco is working to give shape to three mega projects simultaneously, including a $4-billion

500,000 tonnes smelter along with a captive 1,250 power complex at East Kalimantan in Indonesia.

Nalco is also pursuing a project of similar con�iguration at Jharsuguda in Orissa. The promised access to 80 million tonnes of bauxite deposits at Gudem and KR Konda in Andhra Pradesh will also lead Nalco to build a 1.4-million tonne alumina re�inery in the state. Hindalco has also got big things on its plate. If all its projects get commissioned on revised schedule, then Hindalco will see its smelting capacity rising to 1.7 million tonnes from 500,000 tonnes and alumina re�ining capacity to 6.5 million tonnes from 1.7 million tonnes by 2013. Meanwhile, Novelis acquisition has given Hindalco global leadership in that value added segment where path breaking technologies are in application.

Vedanta has arrived on the Indian aluminium scene much later than Hindalco and Nalco. While it has made up for the lost time by gaining control of Balco and Madras Aluminium, Vedanta is aggressively building new capacity through green�ield and brown�ield routes.

India to face major aluminium surplus by 2013.

Aluminium industry in India is moving towards overcapacity, since supply is likely to grow in excess of demand going forward. Considering that all aluminium projects would begin commercial production with expanded capacity as planned, there could be at least 2 million tonnes of additional capacity for exports by 2013. Fitch Ratings report recently said that India’s aluminium Continue on page no.92

Copper Ores: Global Scenario:

World mines production continued to underperform relative months of 2011, remained practically unchanged compared with production in the same period of 2010 (+0.1%) : Concentrate production declined by 0.5% and solvent extraction – electro winning (SX-EW) grew by 2.8%.

Production at three of the world’s four leading producers (Chile, Peru and United States) that combined accounted for almost one-half of the world’s production was down by an aggregated 2.8% during the �irst eleven months of 2011 compared with that in the same period of 2010. Production in China, currently the second leading copper mine producer, was up by 12% in the same period Indonesian production declined signi�icantly in October / November due to labour unrest. On a regional basis, mine production increased by 6.5% in Africa, 3% in Europe, and 12% in North America, and 7% in Oceania, but decreased by 3.5% in South America and 5% in Asia.

The average mine capacity utilization rate for the �irst eleven months of 2011 fell to 78.5% from 80% in the same period of 2010.

World mine production of Copper Ore in November, 2011 in terms of copper content was 1,362,000 tonnes.

Domestic Scenario: 92

Copper World Mine Production

HCL is the only domestic producer of Copper Ore. The production of Copper Ore during February’ 12 is 2.46 lakh tonnes against a production of 3.11 lakh tonnes during the same period of 2010-11: a decrease by about 20.9%. On a cumulative basis up to the period February’12 of �inancial year 2011-12, the production of Ore is 31.64 lakh tonnes against a production of 32.58 lakh tonnes during the corresponding period of 2010-11: a decrease by about 2.89%.

Copper Metal Global Scenario:

During the �irst eleven months of 2011, world re�ined production grew by 3.2% compared with that in the same period of 2010: Primary production increased by 2% and secondary production (from scrap) increased by 9%. Production increases of 16% in Australia (recovery from 2010 operational

constraints), 15% in China, and 38% in the Democratic Republic of Congo were partially offset by declines in Chile (4.5%), the United States (7%), Canada (15%) and Japan (15%). The average re�inery capacity utilization rate for the �irst eleven months of 2011 was practically unchanged from that in the same period of 2010 at around 79%. World re�ined production in November’11 was 1,654,000 tonnes.

Indian Scenario:

The Size of Indian Copper Industry (consumption of re�ined copper per annum) is around �ive lakh tones, which as percentage of world copper market is only three percent. Sterlite Industries, Hindalco and Hindustan Copper are major producers of re�ined copper in India. India has emerged as net exporter of copper from the status of net importer on account of rise in production.

PGE (Platinum Group Elements) :

generate huge employment.

The platinum group metals (abbreviated as the PGMs sometimes collectively refers to six metallic elements clustered together in the periodic table). The six platinum group metals are ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium, and platinum. They have similar physical and chemical properties, and tend to occur together in the same mineral deposit. Signi�icant quantities of platinum group metals – Ruthenium, Rhodium and Palladium are formed as �ission products in nuclear reactors. With escalating prices and increasing global demand, reactor produced noble metals are emerging as an alternative source.

Gold

Global Scenario :The estimated reserve base for gold was about 90,000 tonnes metal. Out of the total world resources of gold, 15 to 20 % was obtained as a by-product during extraction of other metals. In addition, ground stocks of 34,000 tonnes of previously mined gold were held by Central Banks and 74,000 tonnes was available in the form of coin, bullion, jewellery and scrapThe world’s top �ive producing gold mining companies include: Barrick Gold, Goldcorp, AngloGold Ashanti, Newmont Mining Corporation and Kinross Gold Corporation.

Indian Scenario for Gold :-

The only gold producing mine in India is Hutti Gold Mines Limited (HGML).

It has reserves of approximately 600 tons and produces on an average 3 tons of gold a year. India may import 500-550 tonnes of gold in 2010.

Deccan Gold Mines Ltd expects to start gold production by end-2010.

The company is targeting 4 tonnes of gold production annually. Gold is also produced as a by-product in copper smelting.

98

Global Scenario:-

The largest reserves of PGMs are located in Bushveld Complex in South Africa. The world reserve base of PGMs is estimated at 66, 000 tonnes concentrated mostly in South Africa (87.5%), followed by Russia (8%) and USA (2.5%)

Indian Scenario :-

In India, appreciable values of platinum group of elements (PGE) were traced in the Precambrian ma�ic/ ultrama�ic complexes in Sukinda and Nuasahi sectors of Orissa and Sitampudi in Tamil Nadu. Sampling of chromite ore bodies and their associated rocks revealed occurrence of PGE in these areas.

There is

a need for application of state of the art technology and integrated multidisciplinary approach for exploration in the country. The demand for palladium is expected to rise as it is increasingly substituted for platinum as catalyst for petrol engines and to certain extent even in diesel engines.

Other Metals (Molybdenum, Cobalt, etc) Global:Molybdenum

Molybdenum occurs in nature only in chemical combination with other elements. A number of molybdenumbearing minerals have been identi�ied, but the only one of commercial signi�icance is molybdenite (MoS2) - a natural molybdenum sul�ide. The world reserve of Molybdenum was over 19 million tones, located mainly in china,USA, Chilie,Canada, Armenia, Russia, Peru & Mexico.

Cobalt

The identi�ied world cobalt resources are about 13 million tons. The vast majority of these resources are in nickel-bearing laterite deposits, with most of the rest occurring in nickelcopper sul�ide deposits hosted in ma�ic and ultrama�ic rocks in Australia, Canada, and Russia, and in the sedimentary copper deposits of Congo (Kinshasa) and Zambia.

Indian Scenario :Molybdenum

In Indian, molybdenum is associated generally with copper, lead and zinc ores. Rakha copper deposit in Jharkhand contains 45 to 48 ppm molybdenum. Malajkhand copper Continue on page no.100

www.engrreview.com

TECH TRENDS

Continued from page no.98 deposit in Madhya Pradesh contains 0.04% recoverable molybdenum.

The total resources of molybdenum ore in the country as on 1.4.2005 are estimated at about 19.29 million tones containing about 12,640 tonnes MoS2. Of these, 1.5 million tonnes are in reserves category and 17.79 million tonnes in resources category.

Molybdenum resources are mainly located in Tamil Nadu (9.97 million tonnes), Madhya Pradesh (8 million tonnes) and Karnataka (1.32 million tonnes).

Cobalt

The total resources of cobalt ore in the country as on 1.4.2005 are estimated at about 44.91 million tones out of which 30.91 million tones (about 69%) located in Orissa while remaining are available in Jharkhand & Nagaland. Cobalt associated with lateritic nickel deposit in Sukinda area, Orissa and copper slags are two possible secondary resources of cobalt along with sea-bed multimetal nodules.

Rare earth element :Global scenario:-

As per reports in Nature Geosciences by Mr. Yasuhiro Kato, Associate Professor of Earth Science, University of Tokyo, vast deposits of rare earth minerals have been found on the �loor of the Paci�ic Ocean. Rare earths are relatively abundant in the Earth’s crust, but discovered minable concentrations are less common than most other ores. U.S. and world resources are contained primarily in bastnäsite and monazite.

100

Bastnäsite deposits in China and the United States constitute the largest percentage of the world’s rare earth economic resources, while monazite deposits in Australia, Brazil, China, India, Malaysia, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and the United States constitute the second largest segment. Apatite, cheralite, eudialyte, loparite, phosphorites, secondary monazite, spent uranium solutions, and xenotime make up most of the remaining resources. Undiscovered resources are thought to be very large. China holds the leading position among producers of rare earths followed by Brazil, Malaysia and India. Rare earths are also produced in Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Thailand.

Indian scenario :-

In India, monazite is the principal source of rare earths and thorium.

The mineral monazite is a prescribed substance as per the noti�ication under the Atomic Energy Act, 1962.

AMD has been carrying out its resource evaluation for over �ive decades. It occurs in association with other heavy minerals, such as ilmenite, rutile, zircon, etc. in concentrations of 0.4 - 4.3% of total heavies in the beach and inland placer deposits of the country.

The resource estimates of monazite in the beach and inland placer deposits have been enhanced from 7.90 million tonnes in 2002 to 10.21 million tones.

IREL, a Government of India Undertaking and KMML, a Kerala State Government Undertaking, are actively engaged in mining and processing of beach sand minerals from placer deposits. IREL produced 35 tonnes rare earths viz, RE �luoride,

| March 2013 | ENGINEERING REVIEW - INDIA STEEL SPECIAL

cerium oxide, cerium hydrate from conversion of rare earths chloride, in 2007-08 against 1,800 tpy installed capacity.

Future outlook :-

Though China is having only 37% reserves of rare earths, it produces around 97% of world’s supply of rare earth. Concerns have mounted about the supply of rare earths as its predominant supplier China has announced its regulation on export and it will crack down on smuggling.

On September 1, 2009, China announced plans to reduce its export quota to 35,000 tons per year in 2010-2015, ostensibly to conserve scarce resources andprotect the environment. It was reported that China will “further reduce quotas for rare earth exports by 30 percent from next year to protect the precious metals from overexploitation”.

As a result of the increased demand and tightening restrictions on exports of the metals from China, searches for alternative sources in Australia, Brazil, Canada, South Africa, and the United States are ongoing. Another recently developed source of rare earths is electronic waste and other wastes that have signi�icant rare earth components.

New advances in recycling technology have made extraction of rare earths from these materials more feasible, and recycling plants are currently operating in Japan. It is an estimated that 300,000 tons of rare earths is stored in unused electronics waste.

As new technologies are developed, perhaps recycling may become the only source for such exotic materials. www.engrreview.com
