Coal Handling System charged to pave way for commissioning of Coke Oven Battery at Nagarnar Steel Plant

As a precursor to commissioning of the Coke Oven Battery at its upcoming Nagarnar Steel Plant, NMDC switched on power to the Coal Handling System and the High Tension Power Supply to Stacker Reclaimer to start commissioning of the coal route of RMHS Package. The charging of the coke handling system is significant because the 3 MTPA capacity Nagarnar Steel Plant is expected to handle close to 2.5 million tonnes of coking coal annually to feed its two coke ovens. Coking Coke is converted to coke for charging into blast furnace to reduce iron ore to molten steel. NMDC has already placed order for procurement of the first consignment of coking coal.

NMDC's Rs 15525 crore 3 MTPA capacity steel plant in Bastar is slated to be commissioned in September 2018.
