Tata Steel has entered into a 20-year agreement with Air Water India Private Limited (AWIPL) for the operation and maintenance of its Air Separation Unit (ASU) in Jamshedpur. The ASU, currently in the stabilization phase, is designed to produce 1,800 tons of oxygen daily, along with nitrogen, argon, and dry compressed air. These gases are integral to Tata Steel's Blast Furnaces and Steel Melting Shops. The collaboration leverages AWIPL's global expertise in cryogenic operations, including insights from their Japanese facilities, to enhance plant efficiency and operational excellence.
