Tata Steel plans to destroy an obsolete coke oven facility at Jamshedpur and build a new high-tech coke oven plant.
In the coming months, the company will execute implosions of three more obsolete units — a coal tower and two chimneys — at the coke oven facility.
The company statement on Wednesday said it will undertake a planned implosion of an obsolete unit (model repair shop of 12-metre height) at a non-operational coke oven facility at Jamshedpur on Sunday.
The move is part of efforts to introduce advanced environment-friendly coke oven facility, it added.
The implosion will be carried out by Tata Steel contract partner Edifice & Jet Demolition South Africa.
All approvals and non-objection certificates have been secured, it said.
The company has undertaken measures to ensure a safe and environment-friendly execution.
