Sponge Iron

To produce best TMT best quality iron ore is required. Most of the companies outs ource it,but we get it from our own mines so that quality is up to the mark.Best iron ore contains all required ingredients.Every lot of iron ore is checked by expert technicians.Tested and checked iron ore is melted in big furnaces at very high temperature to manufacture sponge iron. Sponge iron is agoin checked for standard quality parameters in modernize laboratories.This sponge iron is then agoin melted at high temperature to get Ingots or Billets. India is the world's largest producer of sponge iron, most of which is produced primarily through the coal based method of production. Growth in the sponge iron production can be attributed largely to the popularity of secondary steelmaking route, which has shown a phenomenal growth in India. The proportion of crude steel produced by the secondary steel sector rose from 26 mMT(37%) in 1999-2k to 54 mMT(59%) in 2007-08. This has been mainly due to the lower investment cost of the EAF as compared with the integrated blast furnace--oxygen converter route and also because of its greater flexibility of product mix.
