Area of Work: The first hot metal tapping in March 2008, the aluminium smelting unit at Jharsuguda has come a long way to establish itself as the world’s largest single-location smelter. With an installed capacity of 1.75mtpa, backed by two smelters – 0.5mtpa and 1.25mtpa (SEZ) – and two power plants with a combined capacity of 3615MW, it boasts a run-rate of over 1.3mtpa. BALCO operates through its plant at Korba in Chhattisgarh with a smelter capacity of 0.57mtpa and power generation capacity of 2010MW. The state-of-theart alumina refinery at Lanjigarh feeds the aluminium smelters at Jharsuguda and BALCO and forms a crucial link in the value chain. It is one of the world’s largest, one-site integrated alumina refining complexes with a current capacity of c.2mtpa that can be ramped up to 6mtpa
