1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
ORIENT CEMENT LIMITED (OC)is operating a Cement Plant with aClinker production capacity of 2.0 Million Tonnes Per Annum (MTPA)at Itagi & Diggaon villages, Chittapur taluk, Kalaburagi district,Karnataka.
The limestone requirement of the cement plant is met from ChittapurLimestone mine located at Itga & Diggaon villages, Chittapur taluk,Kalaburagi district, Karnataka.
OC received Environmental Clearance for 2.0 MTPA Clinker and 3.0MTPA cement capacity along with a 50 MW Coal based power videMoEF letter no. J-11011/342/2011-IAII(I), dt. 11.3.2013 (Annexure-I)
The current status of various units of OC along with installedproduction capacities are given below:
OVERVIEW OF PRODUCTION CAPACITIES OF OCInstalled capacity
1 Clinker Production Capacity 2.0 MTPA2 Cement Production Capacity 3.0 MTPA3 Captive Limestone Mining 3.0 MTPA4 Power Plant (CPP) 50 MW
OC now proposes to increase clinker production capacity from 2.0 to5.0 MTPA and cement production from 3.0 to 6.0 MTPA by enhancingthe Unit-I production capacity from 2.0 to 2.50 MTPA and byinstalling another 2.5 MTPA new unit i.e., Unit-II. With increase ofclinker production capacity, the limestone requirement also increasesfrom 3.0 to 7.5 MTPA.
OC proposes to meet the above additional limestone requirement byincreasing limestone production from captive limestone mining lease.The mining lease extends over an area of 519 Ha. in Itagi & Diggaonvillages, Chittapur taluk, Kalaburagi district, Karnataka.

iii. Details of alternate sites considered and the basis of selectingthe proposed site, particularly the environmental considerationsgone into should be highlighted.
As the expansion is proposed in the existing premises, no alternatesite considered or proposed for the proposed project
iv. Size or magnitude of operation
With the proposed expansion, the clinker production will be 5.00MTPA and Cement at 6.00 MTPA.
Manufacturing Process:
Limestone Mining: Mechanized mining of lime stone is done by deephole drilling, nonel blasting, excavation and hauling. The blasted limestone of size less than 1000mm will be transported to lime stonecrusher for crushing.
Limestone Crushing: A single Rotor Impact Crusher is installed toreduce limestone size from 1000 mm to 75mm.
Stacking & Reclaiming: The crushed lime stone is stackedlongitudinally with stacker as per the required quality given by QualityControl Dept. After forming the stockpile, the reclaimation will bestarted. The total process of stacking and reclaiming is called chevronmethod.
Raw material grinding: Blended lime stone will be reclaimed and willbe filled into raw material hopper in the Vertical Roller Mill (VRM)section. Laterite (out source material) and corrective limestone will befilled into laterite hopper and corrective limestone hopper respectively.All the three materials with the required ratio are conveyed throughthe weigh feeders and belt conveyors to Vertical Roller Mill, wheregrinding takes place.
14
VRM within built system of separator will grind the raw materials 75mm size to 15 to 17% on 90 micron size. The product called Raw mealis collected in cyclones and Pulse jet Bag House and transportedthrough air slides and bucket elevator and stored in blending Silo.
Pet Coke Coal Crushing & Grinding: Pet Coke / Raw Coal unloadedfrom open trucks to yard and transported by Belt Conveyors tocrusher where the size is reduced from 300 mm to 50 mm andconveyed to raw coal hopper through conveyor belts. Vertical rollermill (VRM) pulverizes raw coal to fine coal with fineness of 16%R on90 microns, which is collected in Bag Filter. The fine coal is furtherconveyed mechanically to fine coal bins and transported to kiln andcalciner pneumatically (through FK pumps) for firing.
Pyro-Processing: This system consists of Rotary Kiln with 6 stagePre-heater and In-line Calciner. Raw meal from Silos is conveyedthrough pre-heater. Fine coal is fired through burner pipe into kilnand into pre-calciner. The material is 90 to 92 % calcined beforeentering into kiln and balance calcination, Pre burning and sinteringtakes place in the kiln for ensuring completion of chemical reactions.Clinker formed is cooled in Static grate coolers with high pressurefans. The clinker after cooling is transported mechanically to clinkerstorage tanks.
Cement Grinding: Clinker from clinker storage tank is conveyed toclinker hopper. Gypsum is filled into gypsum hopper. Closed CircuitTube Mill with dynamic separator grinds clinker and gypsum in aratio of 95:5 respectively. The product, called Ordinary Portlandcement (OPC) is conveyed mechanically to cement storage silos.
Similarly Clinker, Fly Ash, gypsum in a ratio of 60: 35: 5 respectivelyare ground in the Vertical roller Mill to make Portland PozzolanaCement (PPC)/ Portland slag cement (PSC) & Portland PozzolanaCement (PPC) which is conveyed mechanically to cement storage silos.
Cement Packing: Electronic Packers (12 spout- double discharge)automatically fill the PP bags or paper bags of 50 Kg. These bags areloaded to the trucks through belt conveyors and loaders.
15
The Plant is well automated and operated form Central Control Roomand Control system is based on PLC.
Quality Control: All the raw materials, in- process and products arecarried out by means of XRF and XRD of PAN Analytical. Thepreventive measures are taken to ensure the consistent and bestquality is achieved. Material testing is undertaken on calibratedinstruments for both Physical and Chemical parameters all the time.The people involved in this stream are highly qualified andexperienced and quality conscious. The product is well accepted in themarket and customers like Readymix concrete, Industries andBuilders prefer our product very well.
Process Control: The plant operation through Siemens Automation isequipped with Expert Control Systems (ECS), comprising the SDRsystem. PIDs with closed loops systems are intact and PLC is inadvanced modern system. Fuzzy logic from FLS is also adopted forsmooth and consistent operation of the plant. The process parameteris designed by the experts and is operated by qualified andexperienced engineers. The deviations are minimized and thetolerances are limited. This is resulting in achieving the productivity interms of best quality, optimal production and energy conservation(thermal as well as electrical).

For obtaining raw materials like Petcoke, coal, gypsum, additives andtransporting cement from the cement plant to the market, wellconnected roads are available. Railway siding is under development.
vii. Resource optimization / recycling and reuse envisaged in theproject, if any, should be briefly outlined.
Available limestone reserves of existing mines cater to limestone needsof Cement Plant
17
Limestone from the mine is blended to arrive at the proper feedablequality (subjected to the receipt of quality of coal) and supplied toCement plant for optimum utilization of resources.
Cooling water circuit is close circuited, thereby ensuring no generationof wastewater. The process, selected envisages re-cycling all thematerial collected in the pollution control equipment wherebyensuring no generation of solid waste.
viii. Availability of water its source, energy / power requirement
Water
Water is required for cooling, dust suppression, sanitary facilities andgardening. The present water requirement of the plant is 3500 m3/day(Cement Plant and Power Plant). Additional Water requirement for theproposal is 2000 m3/day. The source of water is Kagina River.
Power
The peak power consumption in the OC Cement plant complexincluding mine is 24 MW. Total power requirement for the OC cementplant complex is met from Captive Power Plant. Additional powerrequired is about 36 MW and it will be sourced from Captive PowerPlant and WHRB. Grid also is accessed, if required.
xi. Quantity of waste to be generated (liquid and solid) andscheme for their management / disposal.
In cement plant water is used for cooling, gas conditioning and rawmaterial addition at various stages. This water is totally absorbed inthe process or will be subjected to evaporation and hence nowastewater is released from the cement plant.
Wastewater generated is only from domestic activities at cement plantand residential colony. A full-fledged sewage treatment plant (STP) isin operation designed for a maximum load of 500 m3/day. Treateddomestic wastewater is 100% reused for greenbelt development withinOC cement plant and Colony.
