ThyssenKrupp bags UAIL alumina refinery expansion contract




ThyssenKrupp Industrial Solutions (India) has been awarded a contract by Utkal Alumina International Limited (UAIL), to provide engineering, procurement, construction management (EPCM) services for a proposed integrated alumina refinery expansion project at Rayagada in Odisha, India.
UAIL is a fully owned company of Hindalco, which forms part of the Aditya Birla Group. Hindalco has extensive global operations in aluminium and copper.
The refinery is located near the UAIL’s captive mines and captive power plant.
The expansion project envisages increasing the refinery’s total processing capacity by 0.5 million metric tonne per annum (mmtpa) to 2.0 mmtpa from its existing 1.5 mmtpa.
Bauxite, the raw material for the process, is being sourced from UAIL’s mines in Odisha. The alumina from the complex is proposed to be used in Hindalco’s aluminium smelters at various locations for the production of aluminium products.
ThyssenKrupp will provide engineering, technical procurement services, planning, project management services and supervision services pertaining to the alumina refinery.
