Tata Steel announces a partnership with South Eastern Railway to create eco-friendly rail infrastructure using slag-based aggregates. The joint initiative aims to utilize Tata Aggreto and Tata Nirman, sustainable alternatives, in constructing railway tracks' blanketing layers. SER General Manager Anil Kumar Mishra emphasizes the importance of eco-conservation. Tata Steel's efforts involve an accelerated weathering facility to process LD slag for sustainable aggregate production, reducing natural aggregate mining and transportation. The project aligns with the Ministry of Railways' plan to enhance rail infrastructure. The initiative contributes to biodiversity preservation and environmental sustainability.
