Tata Steel to set up a waste heat recovery system at its ferroalloy plant.

Project will 
produce 4-5 MW clean captive power and reduce emissions.

Part of Tata Steel
's net zero and sustainability plan.

Tata Steel has 
proposed to commission a Waste Heat Recovery (WHR) system at one of its large ferroalloy-producing units in India. The initiative, which will recover the waste gases generated during ferroalloy productionwill produce clean, green power for captive utilization and help the plant reduce its carbon footprint.

After commissioning, the WHR system will produce around 4-5 MW of power, making the plant more energy efficient and furthering the overall sustainability vision of Tata Steel. The initiative supports the company'ambition to reach net zero carbon by 2045.

Company 
executives said this project will not only decrease reliance on grid power but also reduce operating expenses and enhance overall plant efficiency. The waste heat energy, which was lost in the air earlier, will now be utilized to generate steam and then electricity through turbines.

This is 
part of Tata Steel'overall strategy of incorporating green technologies and circular economy methods into its production processes. The company has already executed several WHR projects at its steel-making facilities and is now taking this practice to its ferroalloy business as well.
