Key Achievements
Steel Metal & Mining
Project details Value additions delivered
Feasibility study for Complex nature of the ore due to low grade Goethite
establishment of iron ore Fe & high content of Alumina & Silica were managed
mining & steel production through beneficiation solutions and production
facilities in Ethiopia facilities planned
Water resource management (by way of reduction of
specific consumption of water and by extensive rainwater
Pre-feasibility studies and plan
for a large diamond mining harvesting arrangements) solutions that led to cost savings
project for an MNC through reduction in reservoir capacity, reduction in number
of dykes for PlSF, reduction in capacity of crushed ore
stockpile & compact layout with minimal cutting and filling
Turnkey execution of the project completed in record
time and in line with international standards. Innovative
engineering solutions such as design and engineering
Engineering consultancy for a
blast furnace, the largest in the of 4-poster structure thereby eliminating the need for
country (2013) pouring concrete into the hollow structures, engineered
sequence of installation of the down comer connecting
blast furnace and gas cleaning plant were premium
solutions to the client
The water requirement of 220 CMH was addressed by
the water collected in reservoirs during monsoon.
55,000 TPA High Carbon Cost-effective water solution was provided though
Ferrochrome Plant water from Karatali Reservoir (KR) of the State Irrigation
Department, construction of anicut rain water harvesting,
ground water, sea water desalination
Solutions provided resulted in savings of around 100
The green field zinc mine million USD (which is around 25% of the capex). After
project consists of open cast process optimisation benefits included – number of
mine, ore beneficiation plant flotation cells reduced, total effective volume reduced
and associated infrastructure in thus reducing the requirement of air in turn reducing the
South Africa capacity requirement of blower, overall footprint of plant
reduced, overall power consumption reduced
Consultancy Engineering Merger of MCC building and optimisation of bin
Services for MHS-RlS System configuration thereby leading to cost reduction to the
for iron ore conveying tune of `10 crore to client
