Order of the Allahabad High Court in the matter of Northern India Glass Manufacturers Association Vs. Union of India & Ors. on the use of natural gas as an industrial fuel by glass manufacturers, Taj Trapezium Zone (TTZ), 26/02/2014.
This paper attempts to formulate Overall Thermal Transfer Value (OTTV) coefficients for Composite, Hot-Dry and Warm-Humid climates, the three main tropical climates in India. Four existing air-conditioned office buildings – two mid-rise and two high-rise were modeled as case studies using eQuest v.3.6, which is a DoE2.2, based building energy simulation tool. Based on the study of building envelope, loads, operation and HVAC system characteristics of these case study buildings, a hypothetical high-rise, 16 storey office building, octagonal in plan was created for parametric studies.
A Rs1500-crore glass complex, with a capacity to manufacture three lakh tonnes of international quality float glass every year, is being set up by Saint-Gobain, Paris-based giant firm in glass products, in the Karahani industrial area of Bhiwadi (Alwar).
CHENNAI: The State government on Monday signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Harsha, a Dubai-based industrial group, to set up a float glass manufacturing facility and a heavy engineering industrial unit to cater for oil and gas, energy and power sectors.
The group will invest Rs.1,500 crore in the two projects.
A deep rumble, like the steady snores of a sleeping giant, envelops the factory. The temperature is nearly 75 degree celsius near the furnace, the surface temperature being around 300 degree celsius.
Heedless of the heat, men armed with steel rods, the tips glowing, walk to and fro thrusting the ends into the furnace, wrapping gleaming molten glass around the rods.
An investment of Rs. 1,000 crore envisaged Initial capacity will be three lakh tonnes Unit to go on stream in the first quarter of 2010 Saint-Gobain Glass India, a fully-owned subsidiary of the Paris-based euro 4.1 billion Saint-Gobain Group, has decided to set up a second plant in India. The unit will come up at Bhiwadi in Rajasthan. The company has already a state-of-the-art global standard facility on a 177-acre land at Sriperumbudur, near here.
