Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik laid foundation-stone for yet another project at IFFCO Paradeep. It is the third sulphuric acid plant with capacity 2,000 MT per day. The plant will adopt the latest technology ensuring the emission levels at the lowest in the country.
The plant will also recover the process heat in form of high pressure steam, which is an important source of energy for power generation as well as other process requirements.
The plant is targeted to be in operation in 2023. The project’s estimated cost is Rs 400 crore. It is yet another step by IFFCO Managing Director Dr US Awasthi in his commitment to serve farmers.
IFFCO Paradeep Unit Head KJ Patel, along with his team and representatives from Employees’ Union and Officers’ Association were present on the occasion.
