Coal crisis in Nalco


Correspondent

KORAPUT: Nalco, the Navaratna award winning company at Damanjodi, is all set for closure if immediate arrangements are not made to make coal available for the plant.
According to sources two boiler plants of the company have already been closed and the single boiler plant which was running at present with the least amount of coal available with the management would not last for more than two days, the sources added. While the company was losing a production of 2500 tons of alumina everyday ,the company has already lost at least Rs.5 crores in the last two days as the two boiler plants stopped operating. But a greater loss is inevitable if the plants were to be shut down completely as it would need time and money to clean up the plant, sources added. The concern among operators is that even if rake of coal starts from Korba as an alternative arrangement , it would take at least three days to reach the plant.
