5. INTRODUCTION
Bhilai Steel Plant (BSP), a unit of Steel Authority of
India Ltd. Inaugurated at 1959 by the President of India Dr.
Rajendra Prasad with a production capacity of 1.0 million
tonne. A-public sector undertaking was conceived under
aegis of Indo-USSR Treaty in the 2nd Five year plan.

23. Bhilai has the widest plate mill in the country, and
it uses continuously cast slabs as input. Liquid steel
produced under controlled conditions in the LD
Converters is rinsed with argon gas to homogenise
the composition as well as to remove non-metallic
inclusions before continuous casting so as to ensure
the production of high quality feedstock for the Plate
Mill. As per customers' requirement or
specifications, plates are normalised in a roller
hearth normalising furnace.
