India's only backwards integrated Carbon company with a fully dedicated source of raw materials, Epsilon Carbon, is set to begin its second phase of expansion. The team got together to perform the laying of the foundation stone ceremony. It's a significant progress milestone for the company as it ushers in a new dawn of growth and development. The groundbreaking ceremony occurred at the company's Vijayanagar plant in Karnataka, India. Vikram Handa, the Managing Director of the company, led the event, with his family participating in the ceremony. There was a feeling of new beginnings in the air, and the energy was energizing for all who attended.
Epsilon Carbon Pvt Ltd, founded in 2010, is a manufacturer of coal tar derivatives led by a dedicated, experienced team of industry professionals and pioneered as India's continuous coal tar distillation unit in Vijayanagar, Karnataka.
This cutting-edge production facility for coal tar-associated products, which spans 160 acres and has a capacity of 220,000 MTPA, meets 40 per cent of the pitch requirement in India's aluminium industry. However, two smelters at the 10-acre pitch melting factory in Sambalpur can operate continuously and have a combined capacity of 50,000 TPA.
Coal tar pitch plays a highly critical role in aluminium production. It is used as a binder in producing carbon anodes, which are essential to the electrolysis process of extracting primary aluminium. Epsilon Carbon's backwards-integrated plant ensures a consistent supply of high-quality coal tar pitch to meet the needs of the aluminium industry.
