Harsco Environmental renews metal recovery, scrap contract with JSW Steel

Harsco Corporation, a global market leader in industrial and specialty waste environmental solutions based in Camp Hill, Pa., announced that its division Harsco Environmental (HE) has renewed its multi-year services contract with JSW Steel at its Dolvi operation in Maharashtra, India.

The current service contract, which is set to expire in June 2022, includes the processing of steel melting shop-1 slag. The renewed contract adds the processing of steel melting shop-2 slag, beginning July 2021. The new contract will support the Dolvi operation until it can build its single large metal recovery plant that will double its capacity. The renewal will ensure that HE can provide JSW Dolvi with continuity beyond the expiration of the existing contract while it builds and implements the new, expanded plant.

“JSW always puts emphasis on by-product/waste product management, its effective utilization and maximization of its value by employing the latest technology, which is both economically and environmentally efficient,” said JSW Dolvi Works President Gajraj Singh Rathore. “With the finalization of this contract with Harsco, JSW has again moved one step ahead towards our objective of solid waste utilization. I wish for a timely and successful implementation of the project, as it is strategically important for us to manage the slag produced from our steel meltshop 2 expansion project.”

HE currently provides several services at the Dolvi mill, including metal recovery, scrap management, and under-furnace digging – services directly related to consistent and continuous steel production. In 2019, HE secured three additional multi-year contracts to set up, operate and maintain slag briquetting, slag cooling, and meltshop services at JSW Dolvi.

“This is another milestone in our longstanding strategic relationship with JSW Dolvi,” said Harsco Environmental Regional President of India Siva Subramaniyam. “It is proof of our client’s trust in us to deliver an upgraded and efficient metal recovery plant in the shortest time to meet the increased slag production as the Dolvi plant doubles its steel capacity.”
