INTRODUCTION TO FUTURE OF STEEL INDUSTRY

• India is the world’s third-largest producer of crude steel (up from eighth in 2003) and is expected to become the second-largest producer by 2016. The growth in the Indian steel sector has been driven by domestic availability of raw materials such as iron ore and cost-effective labour. Consequently, the steel sector has been a major contributor to India’s manufacturing output.

• The Indian steel industry is very modern with state-of-the-art steel mills. It has always strived for continuous modernisation and up-gradation of older plants and higher energy efficiency levels.

• India’s crude steel capacity reached 109.85 Million Tonnes (MT) in 2014-15, a growth of 7.4 per cent. Production of crude steel grew by 8.9 per cent to 88. 98 MT. Total finished steel production for sale increased by 5.1 per cent to 92.16 MT. Consumption of total finished steel increased 3.9 per cent to 76.99 MT.

• India produced 7.34 MT of steel in the month of September 2015, which was nearly equal to the country's steel production in September 2014.

• The steel sector in India contributes nearly two percent of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) and employs over 600,000 people. The per capital consumption of total finished steel in the country has risen from 51 Kg in 2009-10 to about 59 Kg in 2014-15. India's steel consumption for FY 2015-16 is estimated to increase by 7 per cent, higher than 2 per cent growth last year, due to improving economic activity, as per E&Y's 'Global Steel 2015-16' report.

• Iron ore output in India is expected to increase by 25 per cent to 153 Million Tonnes in FY 2016, which in turn will help reduce iron ore imports by two-thirds to five Million Tonnes, SAIL plans to invest US$23.8 billion to increase the steel production to 50 MTPA by 2025.

• JSW Steel has announced to add capacity to make its plant in Karnataka the largest at 20 MT by 2022.

• The Government of India is aiming to scale up steel production in the country to 300 MT by 2025 from 81 MT in 2013-14.

• The Ministry of Steel has announced to invest in modernisation and expansion of steel plants of Steel Authority of India Limited (SAIL) and Rashtriya Ispat Nigam Limited (RINL) in various states to enhance the crude steel production capacity in the current phase from 12.8 MTPA to 21.4 MTPA and from 3.0 MTPA to 6.3 MTPA respectively.

• The Ministry of Steel is facilitating setting up of an industry driven Steel Research and Technology Mission of India (SRTMI) in association with the public and private sector steel companies to spearhead research and development activities in the iron and steel industry at an initial corpus of Rs 200 crore (US$ 31.67 million).

• India is expected to become the world's second largest producer of crude steel in the next 10 years, moving up from the third position, as its capacity is projected to increase to about 300 MT by 2025. Huge scope for growth is offered by India’s comparatively low per capita steel consumption and the expected rise in consumption due to increased infrastructure construction and the thriving automobile and railways sectors.

MARKETING: - The marketing department gets input from many people within the company. Not only does providing input help the rest of the company understand and support the marketing efforts, it also provides some invaluable insights into what customers want and new ideas that may have slipped past the rest of the company. Marketing plays important role in JSW Steel Coated product ltd. they act as bridge between client and company. Marketing department before taking orders makes sure of technical portfolio and other feasibility criterion. Once the order is accepted and booked, it is entered into the system and is handed over to PPC department. Marketing department is segregated into three segments which are Retail, OEM, and Export.

PPC (Production Planning and Control):- PPC department plays main role in plant.PPC is tool to coordinate all manufacturing activities in production system. various activities involved in production planning are designing the product, determining the equipment and capacity requirement, designing the layout of physical facilities, material and material handling system, determining the sequence of operation and the nature of the operation to be performed along with time requirements and specifying certain production quantity and quality levels.

PPC gives the planning of operation, specification, and colour combination, material details to consulting department.PPC also check the material availability in a stock and they release the order to his purchase department. PPC coordinates with purchase and stores department

PURCHASE:-The purchase department activity takes off from the receipt of material indents or inquisitions from the material planning. In case of one time requirement of capital purchase, the requirement to the purchase dept will be directly communicated by users in the form of purchase request. It is the responsibility of the purchase dept to decide commercial terms for economic purchases by proper analysis of the requirement indicated, selection of right source and scheduling the delivery taking into account the lead-time involved.

STUDY OF VARIOUS PROCESSES IN CCL PLANT AT JSW STEEL, VASIND

STORE: - The basic job of the Stores Manager hence is to receive the goods and act as a caretaker of the materials and issue them as and when Production demands it. The basic functions, to manage stores, carried out are:

Receiving of incoming consignments (goods) Safe keeping of goods (Custody) Disposal of undesirable goods Inventory Management Housekeeping and record maintenance

OPERATION:-There are three independent prime operations but interconnected to each other. They are CRM (Cold rolling), CGL-1 /CGL-2, CCL-1/2. These operations are dependent on the client requirement.

CRM (Cold Rolling Mill):- Cold rolling is a metal working process in which metal is deformed by passing it through rollers at a temperature below its recrystallization temperature. The prime objective of cold rolling is reducing thickness of HR strips and imparting desirable mechanical and metallurgical properties to them.

CGL-1 /CGL-2:- Continuous hot dip coating involves the application of a molten coating on as surface of steel sheet. The steel sheet is passed as a continuous ribbon through a bath of molten metal where it reacts with molten metal to bond the coating on the steel strip surface. Using a gas wiping process, a controlled thickness of coating expressed as weight of coating per unit area is allowed to remain on the strip surface. Once coil is coated by zinc or zinc+Al coil is goes to dispatch or CCL-1/2.

CCL-1/2:- Colour coating is done only in few products as per demand. The galvanized CR coil is sent to colour coating line for coating different colour according to need. Coil Coating provides beautiful topcoats, durable surface, innovative application, cost saving, compared to other coating option. It is a continuous coating line with input after sheet being processed by Skin Pass Mill. In this line the sheet is entered through uncoiler and passed through degreasing section and then primer coating is applied and final colour coating is done.

HOT ROLLED COIL (Dolvi/Vijaynagar):-The raw material of JSW steel coated Product Ltd.; Vasind is coming from Dolvi (Maharashtra) and Vijaynagar (Karnataka). 90% of raw material is coming from Dolvi by train and stored in rail yard. Remaining 10% of material is coming from Vijaynagar by train or road. Rail yard material is transferred to goliath yard, which is final inventory section for raw material and then distribute to other station name as Hot Roll Slitting or Pickling section.

HOT ROLLED SLITTING:-It is used for trimming operation, the side edges of strip are cut and the required width is obtained. According to customer requirement the width of the strip is adjusted and silted. The raw material is supplied from JVSL (Jindal Vijaynagar Steel ltd.) And Dolvi in the form of HR coils. The cutters called as slitters are used for cutting operations.

Table 3.1 Process Capability of HRSThe shear to tear ratio should be ideally maintained around 30:70.If tear percent increases with respect to shear, we may get edge breaks in the coil during further processing

PICKLING: -Pickling is a process of removing oxide scales from metal surfaces by chemical and mechanical treatment generally in acid solution.To convert the HR coils to CR coils removal of scales from HR coils is necessary. The scale consists of iron oxides (Fe2O3 and Fe3O4) which are very hard to roll and gives black surfaceAfter rolling. Sulphuric and hydrochloric acids can be used to remove the scales. HCl has advantage over H2SO4 because of the cost of production and cost of regeneration.The line consists of 4 pickling tanks with increasing concentration of HCl so that the whole scale and oxide layer of strip can be removed. After scale removal in pickling tanks the strip is washed in four rinse tanks , first in cold water and then in hot water. After rinse bath the strip is dried in hot air in drier and the coil is again winded in re-coiler for cold rolling.Balanced Chemical Equation

CRM (Cold Roll Mill):- It is a metal forming process in which metal stock is passed through a pair of rolls. It is classified according to temperature of the metal rolled, if the temperature of the metal is above its recrystallization temperature then the process is termed as hot rolling and if below the recrystallization temperature then the process is termed as cold rolling.Cold rolling is a metal working process in which metal is deformed by passing it through rollers at a temperature below its recrystallization temperature.

ObjectiveThe prime objective of cold rolling is reducing thickness of HR strips and imparting desirable mechanical and metallurgical properties to them. There are mainly two types of mill: Single stand and Multi stand millSingle stand mills are frequently classified on the basis of their roll arrangement. In modern cold rolling practice, 2 HI, 4 HI, 6 HI, 20 HI and cluster type mills constitute the principle example of single stand mill. Here at JSW Vasind, we have two 4 HI reverse pass cold rolling mill (CRM 3&4) and a 20 HI mill (CRM 1). These are reversible mills and rolling is done in 6 to 7 passes. In each pass, 15 to 30% reduction is given depending on chemistry, total reduction and Coiling / Finishing Temperature at hot rolling stage.CRM 1 is a medium speed 20 HI reversible single stand mill.CRM 3&4 basically consists of two work rolls and two backup rolls. An AGC (Automatic Gauge Cylinder) is mounted just above the backup roll and its function is to provide the required load on the roll assembly.

allowed to remain on the strip surface. Once coil is coated by zinc or zinc+Al coil is goes to dispatch or CCL-1/2

CCL-1/2:- Colour coating is done only in few products as per demand. The galvanized CR coil is sent to colour coating line for coating different colour according to need. Coil Coating provides beautiful topcoats, durable surface, innovative application, cost saving, compared to other coating option. It is a continuous coating line with input after sheet being processed by Skin Pass Mill. In this line the sheet is entered through uncoiler and passed through degreasing section and then primer coating is applied and final colour coating is done.

PRODUCTION LINE

4.1: GALVANIZED LINE 4.1.1 Introduction:-The continuous hot dip coating process for steel sheet products is widely used and employed in all corners of the globe today. It was originally developed over 50 years ago for galvanizing (zinc coating). Now it is also used to apply other metals to steel sheet (like Zn-Al).Originally the product was used for application that did not demand a high quality finish but today the consuming industries are using hot dip coated products for most demanding applications such as automotive hoods, fenders and doors.Galvanizing basics

It is the process of zinc coating over mild steel sheet for the protection of sheet from corrosion.Zinc

4.1.2 COMPONENTS OF LINE:-

Entry section: Raw material coil comes in plant.

Un-coiler: Receives the CR coils from the entry coil car and unwinds the strip.

Pinch roll: Coil is moved forward by pinch roll.

Entry shear: It is used to discard the damage leading ends from new steel coils.

Seam welder: Welding of Strip ends of the two coils of Uncoiler 1&2 in order to have a line in continuous process. This is done by welding of starting part of one end of uncoiler and end part of other uncoiler.

Entry Accumulator: To accumulate and feed the strip to processing line during welding.

Bridles: A Bridle roll unit allows for the control of tension in various areas of the line, with each section (divided by the bridles) able to maintain a different tension.

Degreasing section

Alkali spray: Alkali is used to remove the dust particles, oil and soil by high velocity flat jet sprays. The alkali temperature is maintained about 80-90 °C.

Rinse 1 hot water: Hot water is sprayed on both sides of moving strip. It is used to remove traces of alkali, loosen dirt from strip surfaces. Water temperature is maintained about 70 °C.

Rinse 2 cold water: It is used to spray cold water on the strips.Degreasing parameters Concentration Ph of strip Temperature

4.2.1 INTRODUCTION The most widely used metallic coating for the corrosion protection of steel is zinc (galvanize). It offers a very good combination of galvanic and barrier protection. However, in the desire to improve, there is always a quest to find even better products.

One hot-dip product that was successfully developed is 55% aluminum-zinc alloy-coated steel sheet .The coating is comprised of 55% aluminum, 43.5% zinc, and 1.5% silicon. Steel sheet with this coating has proven to be an excellent product for long-life building cladding, especially low slope roofing on industrial buildings. It has been widely applied as bare (unpainted) sheet with the coating being directly exposed to the atmosphere. The product is also used as a substrate for pre-painted sheet and this use has also grown significantly.

Chapter 5COLOUR COATING PLANT

5.1 INTRODUCTION

Coil coating is the continuous and highly automated industrial process for efficiently coating coils of metal. Because the metal is treated before it is cut and formed, the entire surface is cleaned and treated, providing tightly-bonded finishes. (Formed parts can have many holes, recessed areas, valleys, and hidden areas that make it difficult to clean and uniformly paint.) Coil coated metal (often called pre-painted metal) is often considered more durable and more corrosion-resistant than most post painted metal.

Annually, 4.5 million tons of coil coated steel and aluminum are produced and shipped in North America, and 5 million tons in Europe. In almost every five-year period since the early 1980s, the

DR. V. N. BEDEKAR INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES, THANE 27

growth rate of coil coated metal has exceeded the growth rates of either steel and/or aluminum production.

JSW Steel Color coated products offer a unique blend of advantages – the strength of steel, enhanced corrosion resistance and the aesthetic appeal of paint. For the retail segment, the pre-painted corrugated sheets and profiles are branded as JSW Colouron (Colour Coated Galvanized Sheets) and JSW Colouron+ (55% Aluminum-Zinc Alloy Colour Coated Steel Sheets)

period of time. The phrase is also used in business computing as a synonym for Capacity management

A discrepancy between the capacity of an organization and the demands of its customers results in inefficiency, either in under-utilized resources or unfulfilled customers. The goal of capacity planning is to minimize this discrepancy. Demand for an organization's capacity varies based on changes in production output, such as increasing or decreasing the production quantity of an existing product, or producing new products. Better utilization of existing capacity can be accomplished through improvements in Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE).Capacity can be increased through introducing new techniques, equipment and materials, increasing the number of workers or machines, increasing the number of shifts, or acquiring additional production facilities.

The actual capacity of CCL 1 line is 150000 TPY but last year 2015 consume the capacity of CCL 1 line is 92472 TPY and the daily capacity of the plant is 490 TPD.

The actual capacity of CCL 2 line is 75000 TPY but last year 2015 consume the capacity of CCL 2 line is 51708 TPY and the daily production of CCL 2 line is 290 to 350 TPD.

Salt Spray Test: - This test is conducted according to ASTM standard B117 to judge the performance of colour coating in the marine environment containing salt. During this test the colour coating sample is exposed to salt spray fog in a customized sealed chamber. 5% of NaCl salt solution is taken as the standard to generate the salt spray. Other parameters like temperature, air pressure, orientation of the sample etc. are maintained. The progress of corrosion is evaluated by visual examination after a given interval.

5.5 PLANT MAINTENANCE:-

5.5.1 Introduction:- Plant implies all physical means of production in a manufacturing system. These can be machine tools, fixtures, land, building and other facilities. These facilities are subject to deterioration, if not checked or rectified or reconditioned may take these facilities unserviceable after some time, this checking or rectification is done through the process of maintenance. Thus maintenance mean to maintain the facility in the system up to desired level of efficiency i.e. to keep assets in a satisfactory condition or restore these to the condition. Maintenance ensures

DR. V. N. BEDEKAR INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES, THANE 33

STUDY OF VARIOUS PROCESSES IN CCL PLANT AT JSW STEEL, VASIND

condition of the facility such that it permits uninterrupted implementation of plan requiring their use.

5.5.2 Objective of Plant Maintenance:- The management of maintenance activity has to concern itself with provision of interrupted production process at minimum cost and maximum reliability. The following are the objectives of plant maintenance.

To maximize the amount of time the assets will be available for use for the purpose for which these were procured.

To preserve the value of assets by reducing the rate of at which they deteriorate. To perform the activities of maintenance in the most economical manner. To plan and schedule maintenance work so as to anticipate and prevent interruption in

operations.

5.5.3 Types of Plant Maintenance:-

Breakdown Maintenance: - This is also known as corrective maintenance. For non critical equipment it is usually the policy to allow it to run without much routing attention. Breakdown maintenance practice is economical for that equipment that’s down time and repair costs are less.

Preventive Maintenance: - All machines deteriorate with use an exposure, deterioration of machine implies change in dimension of it various components and weakening of its members due to fatigue, impact and corrosion.

Productive maintenance:- In industry, total productive maintenance (TPM) is a system of maintaining and improving the integrity of production and quality systems through the machines, equipment, processes, and employees that add business value to an organization. TPM focuses on keeping all equipment in top working condition to avoid breakdowns and delays in manufacturing processes.

Routine Maintenance :- Simple, small-scale activities (usually requiring only minimal skills or training) associated with regular (daily, weekly, monthly, etc.) and general upkeep of a building, equipment, machine, plant, or system against normal wear and tear.

5.6 INVENTORY MANAGEMENT:-

DR. V. N. BEDEKAR INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES, THANE 35

STUDY OF VARIOUS PROCESSES IN CCL PLANT AT JSW STEEL, VASIND

Inventory management is primarily about specifying the size and placement of stocked goods. Inventory management is required at different locations within a facility or within multiple locations of a supply network to protect the regular and planned course of production against the random disturbance of running out of materials or goods.

The scope of inventory management also concerns the fine lines between replenishment lead time, carrying costs of inventory, asset management, inventory forecasting, inventory valuation, inventory visibility, future inventory price forecasting, physical inventory, available physical space for inventory, quality management, replenishment, returns and defective goods and demand forecasting and also by replenishment Or can be defined as the left out stock of any item used in an organization.

5.6.1 There are major inventory sections are as follows,

Raw materials FG Paint Sleeves Chemicals

Raw material: - There are 2 types of raw material Galvanized and Galvalume coil for making of colour coated coil. Once the raw material coil comes to CCL plant, successively coil is stored near to input of the colour coating line, which is at the end of plant and production wise mounted in uncoiler.

Finish Goods: - The finish good of CCL plant is PPGI or PPGL coils. Once the coil is made it is either stored in plant for packing or goes for next process, which could be Slitting, Embossing or cut to length

Paint:- Paint constitutes about 50% of the total conversion cost in Colour Coating plant. Paints applied over Galvanized product as per the customer requirements. In JSW, Primer, Top coat & Back coat are three important elements of Colour-coating line. Here, the colour-coating line applies about 5µ of primer coating on both the side of  GI/GL coils. Top coat is applied as per the customer requirements. Viscosity of paint is one of the factors which affect the coverage area of paint. More viscous the paint more is the volume solid percentage. Volume solid is the material that is actually applied over coils & rest part is evaporated. Company at present keeps only 10-15 days inventory of paints. It has tied-up contract for 50 shades with suppliers so as to meet its demand. Time procurement plays very important role in deciding cost & continuity in process can be maintained only if there is proper supply of raw materials from suppliers. They also sometimes make use of tinters which are mixed with excess stock and old stock in inventory to make new shades. Hence, stock which would have contributed to waste is actually converted into useful product and thus this recycled product can be used for colour-coating on coils. In this way, these processes help in reducing the cost.

STUDY OF VARIOUS PROCESSES IN CCL PLANT AT JSW STEEL, VASIND

Sleeves: - There are 2 types of sleeves used for the wrapping of the coil. One is the metal sleeve and another is cardboard sleeve. The metal sleeves are made in plant but it’s made by contractor they appoint yearly on contract basis for making of metal sleeves, cardboard sleeves are order by purchase department.

Chemical: - The industry has to be use some chemicals for lab testing’s, Flore cleaning or some major applications. They purchase chemicals in different different vendors as per the contract and as per the requirement.

5.7 PACKAGING AND DISPATCHING

DR. V. N. BEDEKAR INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES, THANE 37

STUDY OF VARIOUS PROCESSES IN CCL PLANT AT JSW STEEL, VASIND

5.7.1 PACKING: - Responsibility for coil quality does not end at the mill. Quality at final point of delivery is dependent on the protection afforded by the coil packaging. Increasing demands for suitable packaging for coil stock lead to a new approach to protect coil during transportation and at their final destination. Storage at destination is one aspect which determines the type of packaging. However, there are still no commonly used standards on how such packaging should look. Some of the packaging materials that are used here are GP sheet, OD ring GP, ID ring HR, straps, wood for providing support at base etc.There are two main finished goods produced at this plant, namely PPGI and PPGL (color coated steel) rolls. Following are the sales channels through which these products are sold in the market, namely: a) Trade b) OEM c) Export. Packaging specification for these 3 segments is different depending upon nature of packaging required for different customers. OEM is the manufacturers of white goods whose quality constraints are very high.

Figure 5.4 Packing5.7.2 DISPATCHING:-

As the dispatch plan is concern, once material get produced as per production plan and after packing, PD and QC dept moves the material to finish stock. Once the material moves to finish stock in system then material is ready for dispatch. For export segment, STO to be prepared by PPC and after execution of VL10B transaction in system, deliveries for dispatch get created and then batch assignment to be done. Dispatch plan for export segment is prime responsibility of PPC dept. Containers will be indented on the basis of container wt, order wt, coil wt, port restriction etc, after joint discussion had with logistics and production. The same shall be communicated through Email to marketing international with a copy to production and logistics so that container left out can be controlled in a planned manner. While for DOM segment, MD gets finish stock from system and allocates manually to respective order and create delivery in system. As per the customer requirement coil is load on the truck in EYE to WALL, EYE to SKY and EYE to DOOR. The every export segment the container will be totally fumigated. There is some specific country there have specific details such as Australia the coil is maximum 22 ton.

5.8 TRANSPORTATION:-

DR. V. N. BEDEKAR INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES, THANE 38

STUDY OF VARIOUS PROCESSES IN CCL PLANT AT JSW STEEL, VASIND

The transportation department at JSW Vasind deals with annual contract of transporters, arrangement of vehicles on time, allocation to proper dispatch gate, keeping records of transporters, vehicles, FG transported, etc.

The deliveries are divided majorly into two types, Domestic and Export. There is slight difference in these processes. The production of steel is associated with complex and very extensive transport processes. The steel industry in JSW Vasind is strongly committed to the particularly sustainable carriers- railways, transporters and waterways. Logistics of raw material and finished products play a critical role in determining the operational efficiency and cost structure of steel producer. Road transportation has become an important element in a multimodal transportation matrix, especially, as part of the port related transportation network for important of raw material and export of finished steel.

5.8.1 TYPES OF TRANSPORTATION:-

For yearly contracts, applications along with quotations are called upon for freezing the fixed price pertaining to particular destination with respect to per ton. For example; fixed price for Vasind to Delhi remains 4000 per ton. Following are the types

Local transportation ContractLocal refers transportation within geographical region, specifically inter district. Local

transportation includes machineries and their heavy spare parts, delivery of coils, inbound raw material from Dolvi.

Domestic transportation contractEvery inland transportation stretching nationwide can be considered as domestic

transportation, mainly dedicated to finish product delivery and raw material incoming. Company has information of time required for transportation. Example 4 days for Delhi

ExportIn export, the container needs to manage for proper safety compulsory. For some special

cases fumigation is also mandatory e.g. New Zealand, Australia. Factors of safety increases for export order. Container also needs to be leak proof.

Internal ShiftingInternal shifting involves transferring coils from yard to pickling and slitting and then to

respective workstation.

Transportation dept already has contracted transporters for delivery throughout India with their rates fixed per ton.

For new transporters an amount of 2 laces is kept as security for four months and is cleared at the end of 4th month.

Applications are called upon for annual contracts. In case of denial/failure of transporter to provide vehicle on time, vehicle is arranged from

open markets, if lowest price quoted is higher than contracted transporter, excess amount is debited from transporter. Example - If 'x' being transporter for Mumbai-Delhi fleet with rate 3000 rupees per ton, while in case if x is unable to provide vehicle, and at times vehicle is arranged at minimum of 3200 per ton from open market. The excess amount of 200 rupees per ton will be debited from 'x'

For coil form finished goods it costs rupees 50 extra over sheet form. Number of Trucks stuffs in finished goods daily: 50-55 Number of Containers stuffed for export monthly – 500 Outbound tonnage per month: 35000-40000 Tons

Change in Freight rate due to change in fuel prices

CONDITION: IT IS APPLICABLE ONLY IF THE HIKE IS > 1 RUPEES

Rate change (rupees) = (HSD) X (0.40) X (%change in fuel price)Example; For Mumbai Delhi the fleet charge is 4000 per ton, and fuel rate changed from rupees 62 to 65Increase in price = 65 - 62 = 3; HSD = 4000; multiplier = 0.4Percentage change = 3/62 = 0.04839Rate change = 4000 X 0.40 X 0.04839Rate change =77.424 rupees per ton.

CHAPTER 6OBSERVATION AND SUGGESTIONS FOR IMPROVEMENT

1. There are some fumes which come from primer coater and finish coater.

Description: - At higher altitude of CCL Plant there is accumulation of fume which comes from primer and finish oven. In prime coater there are lots of primers in tank. When primer is apply on coil there are some fumes are go out in the coater area. In the primers there are some harmful chemicals such as etch primers, epoxy primers, zinc epoxy primers, zinc silicate primers. It’s very harmful for the human being and there is no ventilation for passing the fumes. If we are going in finish coater and we still there 5 or 10 min our eyes are burning, we have to not taken the oxygen.

Suggestion:- The explosion hazards must be avoided by providing ventilation to remove flammable solvents and/or dust. Operators must be protected against such hazards by the provision of protective clothing, fresh air masks, ear muffs, etc

2. Improper inventory storage section for paint barrels.

Description:- There is no rack system for storage resulting into difficulty in identification and handling risk. In that area accident chances are more. The paint inventory section is large but there is improper handling system, so injury chances of human being is more. Suggestion:-

Proper racks to be made and arranged accordingly, which will increase overall space for storage, also aid in identifying the right barrel, improper inventory storage section for paint barrels. Handling risk is also reduced.
