CSE to release the study on sponge iron sector in Kolkata

February 11, 2011

India's expanding steel industry is driven by direct reduced iron (DRI) technology -- commonly known as sponge iron. Currently, there are 333 sponge iron factories across the country, and many more are in the pipeline. However, without legitimate regulations, the industry continues to have disastrous impacts on the environment.
