History of JSW Steel
Shri OM PRAKASH JINDAL is founder of JSW Group Company. The JSW Group’s
foray into steel manufacturing began in 1982, when it set up the Jindal Iron and Steel
Company with its first steel plant at Vasind near Mumbai. The next two decades saw
significant expansion and several acquisitions, following the merger of Jindal Iron and
Steel Co (JISCO) and Jindal Vijayanagar Steel Ltd (JVSL) in 2005. Today JSW Steel has
plants in six locations in India — Vijayanagar in Karnataka, Salem in Tamil Nadu, and
Tarapur, Vasind, Kalmeshwar and Dolvi in Maharashtra.
JSW Steel’s global operations include a plate and pipe mill in the US. In order to
securities resources, the company has acquired mining assets in Chile, USA and
Mozambique.

Future Potential and how its foresee with changes
To continuously challenge every frontier and create a self-reliant India, it is imperative
that JSW Steel keeps diversifying and growing. The Company is in constant pursuit of
innovation and development projects at every existing unit as well as undertaking
expansions in new locations. The Company aims to achieve 40 MTPA production
capacities in the next decade, which will garner a 15-20% share of India’s steel basket.
Projects under development
Vijayanagar
The existing complex has the infrastructural capability to handle up to 16 million tons
projects. The new projects include
 Electrical Steel Facility of 0.2 MTPA capacity

9. Salem
The Salem plant aims to develop the Kanjamalai, Kavuthimalai and Vediappanmalai iron
ore mines in Tamil Nadu on receipt of requisite approvals to improve raw material
security. This will facilitate expansion of production capacity to 2 MTPA. It will also
allow the unit to diversify into the production of value-added products such as annealed,
drawn and peeled steel. The plant is continuously working to develop special grades for
critical automotive applications.
Dolvi
The Dolvi unit aims to increase its upstream capacities. Expansion projects include a 1
million tons coke oven plant and, 4 million tons pellet plant. In the second phase, the unit
will be expanded by an additional 4 million tons capacity, which will include a sinter
plant, a blast furnace, slab caster, a hot strip mill, a coke oven and two power plants of
300 MW each.
Kalmeshwar
A new cold rolling mill is being added to raise the existing production level to 0.60
MTPA.
Salboni
JSW Steel signed a development arrangement with Government of West Bengal,
WBIDCL and WBMDTC to build a 10 MTPA steel plant in phases at Salboni, West
Midnapur District. The Environment clearance for the project has been obtained. Along
with this, a 1620 MW power plant is also being envisioned at the location that will cater
to the steel unit.
Jharkhand
The company also plans to build a steel plant in Jharkhand. The Company is currently
pursuing various approvals and clearances to obtain captive mines that will ensure raw
material security. A MoU was signed with the Government of Jharkhand for setting up a
10 MTPA integrated steel plant and 800 MW captive power plants at the location.

12. Environment and its related Responsibility of JSW Steel
1) Water Treatment Technology
JSW Steel approaches towards achieving environmental excellence based on maximizing
positive impact and minimizing negative impact that the operation have on surrounding
environment.
Water is increasingly become a scarce resources.it is one the most vital ingredient for
steel plant, given the fact that significant quantities of water and stem is required for their
operation. JSW Steel’s endeavor is to ensure minimization of fresh water consumption by
increasing efficiency of operation while at the same time ensuring maximum reutilization
treated wastewater. The specific water consumption for FY 2013-14 was 4.89 kl/ton
crude steel; this is almost the same as previous year, despite an increase in steel
production.
Minimization of waste generation and responsible disposal of generated waste are the
basic operational requirement at all the site. JSW Steel operation further reduces the
environmental burden by utilizing waste from external sources as well. Nearly 2.2million
ton of waste scrap were reprocessed at the site during year 2013-14. Innovative
technology have been implemented to recover iron from waste slime being generated,
thereby reducing consumption of precious iron ore.
The various steel making process lead to the generation of air pollutants. Monitoring of
stacks on periodic basis to ensure that they remain within permissible limit is done at all
the location. In most of cases stack emission are maintained well below the permissible
limit.
Preservation of biodiversity is also important attribute in JSW steel’s quest to achieve
environmental excellence. The vijaynagar plan is located near biodiversity sensitive zone.
Precautions are taken to ensure there are no negative impacts due to operation on the
native ecosystem. There are physical barrier to prevent the entry of animal into the plant
area, least they should be harmed.
2) Energy and Climate Change:
Despite the economic slowdown, India’s consumption on energy is on the rise, and to
meet the energy demand of an overpopulated nation, India makes uses of fossils based
energy sources which, apart from being limited in supply, are also polluting.
JSW Steel has been at the forefront in the use of technology to optimize energy
consumption in the steel industry. All plants monitor their specific energy consumption
as a key performance indicator.
The total energy consumption using primary fuel sources during the year 2013-14 at the
plants was 185.47 million GJ.

13. The inherent linkage of climate change and energy is highly pronounced in the steel
industry. With a high dependence on coal, the mitigation of GHG emission is extensively
linked to the energy management. The company’s efforts to optimize energy
consumption have also led to the better GHG performance over the year.
The total GHG emission during the year 2013-14 was 32.72 million tCO2e, which
include direct and indirect GHG emission.
JSW steel organizes the Earth Care Award in association with the TOI. These awards are
an effort to recognize excellence in initiative to counter the ill effect of climate changes
and showcase efforts towards mitigation and adaption by industry, communities and
individuals.
3) Product Responsibility and Innovation:
The ever increasing pressure on the naturally occurring raw material reserve of the earth
is significant sustainability challenges for JSW steel. With this in mind, significant efforts
are being made to ensure the highest possible level of operational efficiency.
Replacement of virgin raw material is high on the agenda. A lot of impetus is being given
to the recycling of waste. This is in turn, has an impact on amount of raw material
consumed per unit of steel produced. During FY 2013-14, specific raw material
consumption in the operation was 3.56tonnes/tons of crude steel production as compared
to 3.92tonnes/tons of crude steel production during FY 2013-14, an improvement of
9.18%.
Product innovation at JSW steel hinges on the fact that end use impact of product as well
as demand of sustainable product are presenting a significant risk as well as a big
opportunity for all steel manufacturer. There is an increase in demand for value added as
well as ecofriendly product in the market.
JSW steel is focusing on creating durable product that will help to harness solar energy,
develop low thickness and higher strength CRCA product to reduce vehicle weight
thereby increasing fuel efficiency, and contributing to creation of steel structure like
multi-level parking and public transportation, thereby reducing traffic congestion and
reducing pollution.
4) Waste to Wealth:
In the FY 2013-14, JSW steel Vijayanagar plant has introduced and innovative new
technology called Mills Scale Briquetting. This not only reduces iron ore consumption
but also help in reducing amount of waste generated. The Mills Scale Briquettes
produced contain high iron content, which can be directly used in LD converter as a
coolant, there by replacing equivalent amount of iron ore. It also helps in the reduction in
lime consumption.

14. The site has also developed a method to recover iron from slime dump. Beneficiation of
slime waste is done using dual extraction column floating technology to recover finer
iron value. This has further helped to site in reducing consumption of iron ore while at
the same time creating wealth from waste.
