OUTOTEC OYJ PRESS RELEASE, MAY 14, 2012 AT 10:15 AM
Outotec's Emission Optimized Sintering process selected for next BPSL sinter
project in India
Outotec has been selected by the Indian Bhushan Power & Steel Limited (BPSL) to
design and deliver technology for a new iron ore sintering plant to be built in
Rengali in the state of Orissa. The contract value is approximately EUR 20
million.
The scope of Outotec's delivery includes technology, engineering, supplying
proprietary equipment and supervisory services for a new sintering facility,
which will include Outotec's innovative Emission Optimized Sintering (EOS)
process. Thanks to a partial gas re-circulation system, the process
substantially reduces overall emissions and saves energy by post-combusting the
re-circulated combustibles such as CO, while retaining high-quality sinter
properties.
The sintering facility is expected to annually produce 2.45 million tonnes of
iron ore sinter which is used as raw material in steel production. The project
is anticipated to last approximately 30 months.
"In today's global steel industry and even in the very price-sensitive Indian
market, it is not just about competitive initial investment pricing that wins
contracts, but offering energy-efficient technologies leading to lower
operational costs. We are confident that our EOS technology which provides a
substantial reduction in coke consumption and lower CO(2) and dust emissions, is
a sustainable solution for the future," notes Outotec CEO Pertti Korhonen.
