  • Location: Kalinga Nagar Industrial Complex, Duburi Dist., Jajpur- 755 026, Orissa, India
  • Coordinates (WGS 84): 20.954939, 86.051986 (exact)

Background

The Jindal Stainless Odisha steel plant began operating in 1970.[1] In 2013, employees at the plant organized a strike to demand for permanent jobs and better wages.[2]

In 2014, the State Pollution Control Board found that the Odisha plant had been violating environmental regulations by discharging waste and pollutants outside factory limits.[3] Jindal Stainless denied causing the pollution.[4] In November 2014, the State Pollution Control Board sealed the plant's cold rolling mill and coke oven units because of the environmental violations.[5]

In 2017, one employee was killed and four others were injured after an acid tank at the plant burst.[6]

In 2020, the plant was briefly shut down due to the Covid-19 pandemic.[7] The plant was also accused of releasing effluents, including cyanide and phenyl, into the water in the Kalinga Nagar area that year.[8]

In 2021, Jindal Stainless Limited announced it may double the capacity of its Odisha plant within the next two to three years, and had set aside Rs 2,000-3,000 crore as capital expenditure funding for that plan; yet as of January 2021, these plans had not been finalized.[9][10] On 28 April, 2022, SMS group was chosen to built a new blast furnace at the plant which is expected to be commissioned by the end 2023.[11] By April 2023, the project was completed and the crude steel capacity of the plant was increased to 2.2 mtpa.[12]

Jindal Steel has also published a pre-feasibility report planning to increase the crude stainless steel capacity of the plant from 2.2 mtpa to 3.2 mtpa.[13][14] In 2020 JSL had made an application with the MoEF&CC for installing a blast furnace of 680 m3, which it later modified with 720 m3 blast furnace, 148 m2 sinter plant, electric and induction furnaces and other auxiliary facilities.[13]The company also plans to set up a green hydrogen plant at the Odisha plant.[15]

In 2024, JSL inaugurated its first green hydrogen plant which is India's first such plant in the SS sector with a capacity to generate 90 Nm3 of green hydrogen per hour, aiming to reduce approximately 2,700 tonne in carbon emissions annually.[16]
