CISDI attended the launch of TATA Steel’s second phase of developments at their Kalinganagar steelworks in India’s Jaipur region.

Work began in late June on Phase II, which is expected to see the plant reach a final production capacity of 16 million tonnes a year.

The new scheme consists of stockyard, rolling plants, pellet, coking, blast furnace, steelmaking and casting and will be constructed in four phases. The first, once completed, will achieve an output of three million tonnes a year, and the second will create an additional five million tonnes a year.

Headed by Hu Zhichun, the vice president of CISDI Engineering, a CISDI team joined other main suppliers at the meeting.

CISDI is implementing the engineering design for TSK Phase II’s Blast Furnace 2, which has a volume of 5,873 cubic metres and an annual output of 4.375 million tonnes.

Due to start-up in October 2020, it will have the world’s largest volume for new-builds and is designed as a fully-digital product.
