1.INTRODUCTION
Steel Authority of India Limited (SAIL) is an Indian state-owned steel making
company based in New Delhi, India. It is a public sector undertaking, owned and
operated by the Government of India with an annual turnover of INR 44,452 Crore
(US$6.83 Billion) for fiscal year 2016-17. Incorporated on 24 January 1973, SAIL
has 72,004 employees (as of 01-May-2019). With an annual production of 14.38
million metric tons, SAIL is the 20th largest steel producer in the world and the 3rd
largest in India .The Hot Metal production capacity of the company will further
increase and is expected to reach a level of 50 million tonnes per annum by 2025.
Sri Anil Kumar Chaudhary is the current Chairman of SAIL.
SAIL operates and owns 5 integrated steel plants
at Bhilai, Rourkela, Durgapur, Bokaro and Burnpur(Asansol) and 3 special steel plants
at Salem, Durgapur and Bhadravathi. It also owns a Ferro Alloy plant at Chandrapur. As
a part of its global ambition, the company is undergoing a massive expansion and
modernisation programme involving upgrading and building new facilities with emphasis
on state of the art green technology. According to a recent survey, SAIL is one of India's
fastest growing Public Sector Units. Besides, it has R&D centre for Iron & Steel (RDCIS),
centre for Engineering in Ranchi, Jharkand.
History
1959–1973
SAIL traces its origin to the Hindustan Steel Limited (HSL) which was set up on 19
January 1954. HSL was initially designed to manage only one plant that was coming up
at Rourkela.
For Bhilai and Durgapur Steel Plants, the preliminary work was done by the Iron and
Steel Ministry. From April 1957, the supervision and control of these two steel plants
were also transferred to Hindustan Steel. The registered office was originally in New
Delhi. It moved to Calcutta in July 1956, and ultimately to Ranchi in December 1959.
A new steel company, Bokaro Steel Limited (Bokaro Steel Plant), was incorporated on
29 January 1964 to construct and operate the steel plant at Bokaro. The 1 MT phases
of Bhilai and Rourkela Steel Plants were completed by the end of December 1961. The
1 MT phase of Durgapur Steel Plant was completed in January 1962 after
commissioning of the Wheel and Axle plant. The crude steel production of HSL went up
from 1.58 MT (1959–60) to 1.6 MT. The second phase of Bhilai Steel Plant was
completed in September 1967 after commissioning of the Wire Rod Mill. The last unit of
the 1.8 MT phase of Rourkela – the Tandem Mill – was commissioned in February 1968,
and the 1.6 MT stage of Durgapur Steel Plant was completed in August 1969 after
commissioning of the Furnace in SMS. Thus, with the completion of the 2.5 MT stage at
Bhilai, 1.8 MT at Rourkela and 1.6 MT at Durgapur, the total crude steel production
capacity of HSL was raised to 3.7 MT in 1968–69 and subsequently to 4 MT in 1972–73.
IISCO was taken over as a subsidiary in 1978 and later merged in 2006.

Holding Company
The Ministry of Steel and Mines drafted a policy statement to evolve a new model for managing
industry. The policy statement was presented to the Parliament on 2 December 1972. On this basis
the concept of creating a holding company to manage inputs and outputs under one roof was
mooted. This led to the formation of The Steel Authority of India Ltd. The company, incorporated on
24 January 1973 with an authorised capital of ₹2,000 crore (US$290 million), was made responsible
for managing five integrated steel plants at Bhilai, Bokaro, Durgapur, Rourkela and Burnpur, the
Alloy Steel Plant and the Salem Steel Plant. In 1978 SAIL was restructured as an operating
company.

There has been a continuous reduction of headcount over the past few years due to enhanced
productivity and rationalised manpower.
The total requirement of its main raw material, iron ore, is met through its captive mines. To meet its
growing requirement, capacities of existing iron ore mines are being expanded and new iron ore
mines are being developed. In addition, new iron ore deposits in the states
of Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Odisha and Karnataka are being
explored. Around 24% of its coking coal requirements are met from domestic sources, the remaining
through imports. For improving coking coal security, the company is also making efforts for
development of new coking coal blocks at Tasra and Sitanalla.
SAIL produced 13.9 million tonnes of crude steel by operating at 103% of its installed capacity,

BOKARO STEEL PLANT
Bokaro Steel Plant Main Gate
Bokaro Steel Plant (BSP) is located in the Bokaro district of Jharkhand. It is the fourth integrated
public sector steel plant in India built with Soviet help. It was incorporated as a limited company in
1964. It was later merged with the state-owned Steel Authority of India Limited (SAIL).Currently it
houses five blast furnaces with a total capacity to produce 5.2 MT of liquid steel. The plant is
undergoing a mass modernisation drive after which its output capacity is expected to cross 10 MT.
An up gradation of the plant was also done in 1990’s in its steel refining units and Continuous
Casting Machines. The plant has recently taken expansion plan along with Korean Steel Company,
Pohang Iron and Steel Company (POSCO). Initially, about 64 moujas (a mouja may have several
village units) had been acquired for the plant. Of the total land acquired, only 7,765 ha was used to
set up the steel plant. The rest has been given by SAIL to the private parties without government’s
approval.The plant's yearly profit stood at ₹11.2 billion(US$160 million) for the financial year 2003–
04 and has increased every year since then reaching to 84.26 billion INR in the financial year 2007–
08.

Raw materials required for the production of steel are iron ore, limestone, manganese, dolomite,
coke and sinter. These are supplied by RMHP, Coke Oven and Sinter Plant. Blast Furnace is
charged with iron ore lump along with limestone, coke and sinter. Intense heat in BF converts iron
ore and other raw materials into molten metal. This molten metal is fed to Steel Melting Shop, where
making of steel is done by blowing 99.95% pure oxygen through the molten metal to remove
impurities and suitable alloys are added to produce different grade of steel. The ingot produced in
SMS is sent to Slabbing Mill where it is converted to rectangular slabs of required dimension which
further goes to Hot Strip Mill which also gets slabs from SMS-2 which is based on Continuous
Casting method where slab is produced without requirement of ingots. These slabs are reheated and
made into sheets of different thickness in HSM. These steel sheets are rolled into coil in HRCF
where it is cut in appropriate dimension as specified by customers and packed for sale. Also the coil
from HSM is sent to CRM to produce high quality Tin Mill Black plate and galvanized product with
better strength and finishing. Cold rolling is done at temperature below re-crystallization temperature
to produce thin gauge plate of high density. Hot Dip Galvanization complex integrated with CRM
produces high quality zinc coated cold rolled steel.

6. CONCLUSION
The training at BOKARO STEEL PLANT was very helpful.
Engineering students gain theoretical knowledge through
books which is volatile and less applicable without
knowing its practical implementation.Training is one of the
important aspects for an engineering student’s carrier to
strengthen the practical concepts.
It was an awesome experience in training as the things I
have learned in my previous year was seen implemented
practically.
I had a chance to see the Blast Furnace and Steel Melting
Shop where the main operation of steel plant is done and
also the working process of various other shops inside
plant which was quite interesting.
So, overall the training was more than hope to me and
helped me to acquire clear knowledge about the working
of an Integrated Steel Plant.
