Tata Steel is planning to install Electric Arc Furnaces (EAF) in north, south and west India that will use scrap as an environmentally friendly step. Electric Arc Furnaces use recycled steel or steel scrap and the company will install its first facility in Punjab. The EAFs will have rolling mills to make TMT bars but these will be executed through partners. Tata Steel’s new 0.5 million tonne steel recycling plant at Rohtak will feed the EAF units to convert into billets and then to construction steel.
Tata Steel, the flagship company of the Tata group, is the first integrated steel plant in Asia and is now the world’s second most geographically diversified steel producer and a Fortune 500 company.
