Research & Development (R&D)

The Company has developed a Research & Development cell for carrying out R&D Projects in
the plant with a specified objective of performance optimization of the mills & Kiln optimization,
use of alternate fuel for kiln and cement quality improvement.

Specific area in which R&D was carried out by the Company:

1. Study of sustainability of Grinding Aid and Performance improvers in Cement Mill. We

have obtained the permission from BIS for addition of performance Improver in OPC.

2. Optimization of cost of Raw Materials: Use of alternative raw material like iron ore,
Laterite etc.

3. Study of suitability of fly ash from different sources.

 4. Trial production of PPC Part-II and slag cement & its commercial production.

5. Study of calcined clay suitability from different sources & Laboratory trials.

6. Proportionate use of Low Grade Lime Stone & designing suitable raw mix.

7. Launching of new design of PP Bags after extensive trial.

Benefit derived as a result of R&D

1. Usage of different types of grinding aid resulted into higher output of Cement Mill &
lower energy consumption.

2. Use of low cost raw material like laterite & iron ore fines resulted to reduced input
cost.

3. Sourcing of Fly Ash from different sources has resulted into optimization of PPC cost
and has also helped in selecting the right quality of fly ash.

4. Launch of new product PPC Part-II & PSC for exploring new market.

5. Calcined clay suitability study will reduce the manufacturing cost if product is
established in the market.

6. Using proportionate low grade lime stone leading to conservation of natural sources
and improved mines life.

7. New PP bags will reduce the rate of bag bursting leading to customer satisfaction.

Future Plan of Action

1. Setting up of Separate Laboratory for study on Raw Material Mix, Fuel Mix, Alternative
Fuel, Refractory Application and Bag Size Optimization.
