The
Hindu BusinessLine: How green is the steel made from a dismantled ship?
---
Extract from the article:
The article delves into the concept of
"green steel" produced from the dismantling of ships. It highlights
the process of converting reduced iron from dismantled ships into steel, contributing
to sustainable steel production.
The steelmakers like Tata Steel and the
Liberty Group are exploring the scrap recycling segment, envisioning Alang, a
ship-breaking hub, as a potential source for cheap scrap steel.
This initiative aligns with the government's
aim to maximize recycling potential and utilize recycled steel in the
manufacturing sector, emphasizing environmental sustainability.
My Take:
Alang
Gets Ready to Break 50 Million Petrol/Diesel Old Cars / Just Fill Up Ships!
"Looking back at my blog from a few years
ago, where I urged ship-breaking yard owners at Alang to consider contributing
to India's Vehicle Scrapping Policy, I see a direct correlation with the
current push for green steel production from dismantled ships.
The opportunity to increase revenue through
sustainable practices was evident back then and is now becoming a reality as
Alang transforms into a key player in recycling end-of-life vehicles."

Alang:
Junkyard? Scrapyard? SaveYard?
"In my blog focused on Alang potentially
becoming a hub for scrapping old vehicles, the government's plan to recycle
end-of-life vehicles at this port town is now materializing.
The shift towards utilizing Alang's recycling
potential for manufacturing steel aligns perfectly with the vision proposed in
my earlier blog. It's inspiring to see how ideas taking root years ago are now
shaping sustainable practices and contributing to the circular economy."

Call to Action:
To the government officials and policymakers
involved in drafting and implementing the vehicle scrapping policy, I urge you
to continue supporting initiatives that promote sustainable practices like
green steel production.
By leveraging resources like Alang for
recycling and manufacturing, we can make significant strides towards a more
environmentally conscious and economically viable future.
