Tata Steel to invest in hydrogen-based steel manufacturing

Tata Steel will invest more than 65 million euros in hydrogen-based steel manufacturing in the Netherlands. Tata Steel has inked pacts with three firms -- McDermott, Danieli and Hatch -- for the further technical preparations for hydrogen-based steel manufacturing in the Dutch city of Ijmuiden.

All three companies have their own specific proficiency that is needed together to assist Tata Steel in hydrogen-based steel manufacturing.

The cost for this first development step is in excess of 65 million euros and will result in an engineering package that forms the basis for a final permitting and project planning. The overall project is led by the Tata Steel internal project and sustainability team, with close support from the main delivery partners.

McDermott is responsible for the construction input and support of the technical project management.

Danieli will oversee the engineering design of the plant and technology that delivers the Direct Reduced Iron (DRI), the first step in the iron-making process.

Hatch is the technology licensor of the electric furnaces that melt the DRI and help reduce the oxygen content further, thereby improving the final steel quality.

The REF and DRI plants are closely combined to form an integrated production system.

Redevelopment Rush

Mumbai is on the cusp of an urban transformation, driven by the pressing need to replace ageing, unsafe buildings with modern, high-density developments. The scale and pace of redevelopment across the city is unprecedented – and yet fraught with complexity.Redevelopment has become a defining strategy for urban renewal in Mumbai. One of the most challenging aspects is the displacement it entails – residents are often required to vacate their homes and live in transit accommodations until the new structures are ready. This raises valid concerns: Will the transit housing meet our needs? Will ..

Powering the Future

Uninterrupted power supply is vital for modern living and, in urban settings, infrastructure is increasingly energy-sensitive. So, generator sets (gensets), a backbone of power continuity, are essential to ensure that human activity continues during grid outages or load-intensive phases of construction. However, TV Ganesh, Executive Director - Technical, Shriram Properties, recommends viewing genset technology not in isolation but as part of a broader ecosystem of intelligent, sustainable infrastructure...To read the full article Click Here ..
