Tata Steel has installed a Long Pipe Conveyor (LPC) at its opencast coal mines in the West Bokaro Division, the facility that will bring coal and by-products from the washeries to the Chainpur railway siding, replacing the existing ropeway transportation system.
Tata Steel CEO & MD TV Narendran said implementing best-in-class technologies and sustainable practices were critical success factors for mining operations. The four-km-long LPC would improve the productivity and help in reducing the environmental footprint in coal logistics, significantly.
