Steel making capacity of the plant is correspondingly increased by utilizing higher availability of Hot metal. The Raw materials required for manufacturing process are - Hot Metal, Scrap, Flux, Ferro alloys. New Steel melt shop comprising of two(2) converters each of 150 cu.m capacity. 2Nos. Laddle Furnaces were envisaged to make the operation of the 2 converters independent of the requirements of continuous casting machines thereby acting as buffer between the converter and the caster.

The steel temperature and steel chemistry will be homonized in LF by inert gases and 1 No. RH degaussing system is envisaged for production of special grade with low gas contents. Three(3) 6 strand strand billet mill. Three casters are available for 200 days in a year and two casters are available for 165 days in a year. Cast Billets will be fed to new bar mill and wire rod mill. Part of rolled billets will also be for sale. The other major facilities installed are - Hot Metal Desulphurization Plant, Scrap Handling system, BOF Gas cleaning Plant, Secondary Emission control, Ferro alloy Handling Facilities, Ladle & tundish predation facilities. New technology - Converter Shop - Combined Blowing, Secondary Fume Extraction system, Contour & bath level measurement and benefits derived are reduced consumption of ferroalloys, better yield and quality, Cleaner environment and measurement of refractory lining. Continuous casting Machines - Auto mould level control & 100% Billet casting and benefits derived are reduced in break outs and energy saving. LF & RH - Electro magnetic stirrer and benefits derived are cleaner steel. Provision is made and tendering activities for award of Consultancy is in process for installation of 3rd converter and 4th caster.
