Coal Handling Plant Ahmedabad

Coal mining in India began in 1774 in the Raniganj Coalfield along the Western bank of the Damodar River. As on 31 March 2015, India had estimated coal reserves of 306.6 billion metric tons, the fifth largest coal reserves in the world. India is the fourth largest producer of coal in the world, producing 536.5 million metric tons in 2014. Due to high demand and poor average quality, India is forced to import high-quality coal to meet the requirements of steel plants. India’s coal imports have risen from 43.08 million metric tons in 2006-07 to 199.88 million metric tons in 2015-16. India’s coal exports rose from 1.55 million metric tons in 2006-07 to 2.45 million metric tons in 2009-10 but subsequently declined to 1.25 million metric tons in 2015-16.

Coal handling plants are the key requirement of a coal-based thermal power plant, more than 62% of India’s electricity demand is met through the country’s vast coal reserves The efficiency of the boiler depends on the coal inserted in its burning chamber and the quality of coal is dependent on the coal handling system and its processes.

Coal handling plants are designed to meet the boiler requirement in terms of capacity and quality. CHAUHAN ENGITECH has supplied various capacity coal handling plants in different regions of India and foreign. CHAUHAN is designing & manufacturing various equipment to satisfy the needs of this kind of plant i.e.
