Tata Steel launches 5 TPD carbon capture plant in Jamshedpur

16 Sep 2021 CW Team

To promote a circular carbon economy, Tata Steel will reuse the carbon captured on site. The facility will help to reduce carbon emissions by about 1,500 tonne per year.

TV Narendran, CEO and MD of Tata Steel, said that the company has taken the strategic step of gradually decarbonising the steel industry.

The Carbon Capture and Utilisation (CCU) facility employs amine-based technology to capture carbon and make it available for reuse on-site. The carbon gas is depleted and returned to the gas network with a higher calorific value. Carbon Clean, a global leader in low-cost carbon capture technology, provided technical assistance for this project.

The operational experience gained from this 5 tonne per day carbon capture plant, according to Narendran, will provide the company with the necessary data and confidence to build larger carbon capture plants and market-ready commodities in the future to tap the carbon market.

In terms of quality, the use of captured carbon will improve primary steelmaking by extending vessel life and reducing oxygen, nitrogen, and argon consumption.

These advantages come on top of the carbon reduction. To achieve decarbonisation, the Company has taken a two-pronged approach of Carbon Direct Avoidance (CDA) and carbon capture and use.

Carbon Clean's CEO, Aniruddha Sharma, said that capturing carbon from blast furnace gas will not only decarbonize steel plants, but will also open up avenues for the hydrogen economy.

Tata Steel has made significant investments in renewable energy, green hydrogen production and use, and waste heat recovery technologies in recent years. It has also made strides in its steel recycling business, which is a step toward more environmentally friendly steel production. The company has opened its first steel recycling plant in Rohtak, Haryana, which will result in reduced carbon emissions, resource consumption, and energy use.
