Besides fuel generation, coal has a plethora of applications that are essential for a number of industries. This carbon-rich fossil-fuelled the growth of the industrial revolution back in the 15th century and continues to be the backbone of 90% industries to date. Though this non-renewable source of energy has reached the verge of extinction in many areas but because of industries’ heavy dependence upon it, it is being vehemently used, which is a concern in itself. Till the time renewable source of energy such as solar, wind and Hydro energy fully develop and mature, coal will be primarily used to operate industries around the world. Unfortunately, there are only a few industries including the likes of KCT Group that abide by the rules of carefully carrying out all the procedures and making judicious use of the fossils that they are putting to use. Coal is the lifeline of all the major industries around the world and here we mention a few of them that solely depends on it...

Although there are not many rules with regard to effective coal storage, the adherence of the few is essential. Proper maintenance of your coal stockpile is crucial not just to maintain its efficiency but also for maintaining an environmental friendly coal plant. Improper storage moreover can directly impact the value of your coal. When left vulnerable, the burning capacity of coal might drop, hence registering lower BTU values. Additionally, the dust runoff from unsealed coal is high that can contaminate water bodies and gardens easily. To ensure a long-lasting coal supply, here are a few things you ought to keep in mind for responsible storage: Irrespective of the size of the reserve, minimizing coal loss and preventing spontaneous combustion is the main goal of coal storage. Spontaneous combustion is a phenomenon that occurs when low-temperature oxidation leads to heating up of the material. This leads to a rise in temperature, resulting in coal ignition that can be dangerous for y...

Seafood is probably the best source of protein and aquaculture is a way to meet the requirement worldwide. Moreover, it also offers employment and income to people all around the globe. However, to suffice the worldwide need, aquaculture needs to be practiced responsibly. Below mentioned are practices that help you keep moving forward in a responsible fashion. Environment and Responsible Aquaculture Go Hand In Hand Addressing issues such as water quality, habitat conservation and effluents is imperative to ensure minimal environmental discomfort. Aquaculture pollutants ought to be minimized in such a way that doesn’t disrupt the ecosystem or lead to a loss of biodiversity. By controlling the pollutants, water oxygen levels can be stabilized and algae bloom managed to an optimum level. Additionally, cultivation of filter feeder species can significantly improve the water quality and pave way for counter-balance fed species byproducts.         ...

India has the fifth largest coal reserves in the world. The seven main states that are home to its coal mines are Jharkhand, Odisha, Chhattisgarh and West Bengal in the east, Madhya Pradesh in central, Telangana in the south and Maharashtra in western India. Coal is transported to almost all other parts of the country from these coal-producing states. However, the level of coal consumption is relatively low in the northern and north-eastern states as they use hydro-power to meet energy demand and moreover, they do not have a strong presence of heavy industries. Prime customers of coal are located mainly in the south due to active presence of the steel and cement manufacturing sector here and the power generators that mainly depend on coal. Unfortunately, a significant quantity of coal reserves in Odisha fail to reach their customers in the south due to lack of adequate railways infrastructure and constraints in transport capacity. Many of them end up meeting their demand through impor...

With the power of saving the environment from apparent decline, comes the responsibility of proving the naysayers wrong. That is exactly what all the sustainable energy alternative companies are thinking. With the depletion of the world’s natural resources like coal and petroleum which were the usual choices for generating energy and powering various essential parts of our lives, the world turned to other resources that could sustain its lifestyle without compromising the environment. While different sources like solar energy, wind energy and hydropower have made up for the shortcomings that the fossil fuels are facing, there are still a lot of myths that make them look undesirable and unreliable. Wind energy especially has been questioned about its infrastructure, noise levels and its overall impact on the environment. Here are a few myths that are prevalent in today’s world. Turbine Noise is a Health Hazard This is untrue as the development in wind farm technology has rendered...

Coal has been the number one resource for energy production in the world for quite some time now. A lot of industries are based around this one energy source, with a lot of industries, power plants and factories depending on it for their daily operations. Needless to say, the resource is irreplaceable because no other resource provides that much productivity consistently. However, the practice of sourcing coal has become one of the biggest industries in the world because of its tough environment and the amount of effort. The sourcing of coal requires intensive mining that has led to coal mines spread all over the world. Coal is an ancient source formed over millions of years under the surface of the Earth, therefore it is really hard to excavate it. That is why, a lot of different mining techniques are employed. Surface Mining The practice of surface mining is carried out by putting dynamite around the surface which is also known as the overburden. After it explodes and creates a hole...

India’s economy is well supplemented by its industrial and commercial industries. The country has also encouraged the growth of employment by selecting specific places for the growth of business and commerce in various different metropolitans. With the rapid expansion of companies taking place all over the country, these business districts serve as the point of interaction for a lot of industries. From software companies that settle down mostly in Bangalore to traditional family-oriented conglomerates that operate out of Mumbai, India has an eclectic mixture of areas that serve a variety of purposes that contribute in their own way to the country’s economic and social growth. Here are a few business districts that have helped companies establish a base in this country while being accessible to both its employees and customers. Bangalore CBD Known as the Silicon Valley of India, Bangalore has its Central Business District or CBD, which boasts of skyscrapers that host a lot multinationa...
