Description:

Coal is the key contributor to theIndian energy portfolio. It contributes to nearly half of commercial primaryenergy demand and one-third of total energy demand of the country. Although,India is one of the leading producers and consumer of coal, Indian coal has highash content and embedded impurities, which needs washing and blending of coal forimproving the quality of Run-of-Mine (ROM) coal. The steel sector needs cokingcoal with ash content of less than eighteen percent. Washing helps in reducingash content by seven to eight percent. Quality and environmental concerns arecausing a shift towards higher utilization of washed and blended coal.  Presently nearly fifty-two commercial washerieswith installed capacity of about 131 MTPA are operating in the country.

In India, only about twenty percent ofthe coal produced is washed, as against the global average of over fiftypercent. Coking coal preparation has long been in operation in India; howeverthe trend of washing of non coking coal is also being seen. About twenty-three percentof the installed capacity is for coking coal and the rest is for non-cokingcoal. Further, as per the directives of MoEF, the power stations located atmore than 1000 km away from coal mines and those located in sensitive areas arerequired to use coal containing not more than thirty-four percent of ash onannual average basis.

Ever increasing demand of coal insectors such as power & other metal manufacturing industries, urbanization,increasing oil prices, increase in extracting capacity and technologicaladvancements are some of the major drivers for the global coal washeryindustry. Additional cost associated with coal washery, composition of rawfeeds and absence of incentives schemes to the miner are some of the factors restraininggrowth of this industry.
