We developed separate coalcorridors in our surroundings and watersprinklers at railway sidings and coaltransport roads to reduce the dustgeneration. We changed our miningmethods to eco-friendly surface miner,which resulted in reducing our carbonfootprint by 1,30,000 Te of CO2.We havealso planted 52.19 lakhs of saplings sinceinceptionand1.38Lakhsamplingsthisyear.

Extractionstage:
Surfaceminers:
We have adopted surface miners technology way back in 1999 and this technology has helped us eliminate dust generation during several activities namely, drilling, blasting and crushing. This mining process indirectly reduces the generation of greenhouse gases. In our conventional methods, we completely changed to wet drilling and in addition that they have dust extractors. During FY 2016-17, we produced 91.8% of our coal (139.20 MT), using surface miners. In CHPs, we have misters and fixed Sprinklers even though our conventional coal production is negligible (8.29% only) to reduce dust generation significantly.
Sustainability Report|2016-17

Transportation stage:
From the mine to market philosophy in our sustainability approach, we adopted a eco-friendly mode of transporting coal (via railways) to our end users. During the FY 2016-17, we transported 73.8% of coal through rail mode and 26.72% by road. A single railway rake (3,800 Te) reduces the dust equivalent to plying of 240 trucks each carrying approx. 16 Te of coal. Rake loading facility and rail infrastructure being strengthened presently. The coal is dispatched through 22 sidings and 4MGRs. Average number of rakes per day is 35.3 rakes in Talcher Coal field and increased up to 30.9 rakes in Ib Valley Coalfields.
