About Tamil Nadu Newsprint & Papers Ltd
History of Tamil Nadu Newsprint & Papers Ltd
Tamil Nadu Newsprint and Papers Limited (TNPL) was promoted by the Government of Tamil Nadu in April, 1979 to produce Newsprint and Printing & Writing Paper (PWP) using bagasse as the primary raw material. The plant located at Kagithapuram in Karur District was commissioned during 1984 with an initial capacity of 90,000 tonnes per annum. The Company has enhanced the capacity to 4,00,000 tonnes per annum in four phases.
TNPL is in the business of manufacture and marketing of Paper, Paper Board, Cement and Generation of Power. The installed capacity of Paper is 400000 tons per annum (TPA), Paper Board is 200000 Tons per annum (TPA), and Cement is 900 tons per day (TPD). Power Generation Capacity is 169.12 MW consists of 133.62 of Turbo Generators (TG's) and 35.50 MW of Wind Farm. Generation of Power is primarily for self-consumption and surplus is sold.
During the year 1994-95, the company undertook expansion programme and doubled their capacity from 90,000 tpa to 1,80,000 tpa. During the year 1998-99, the company signed a MoU with Quena Newsprint, Egypt for providing technical assistance and support for erection of a Newsprint and Paper Mill in Egypt. The mill was successfully commissioned during the year 2000-01.
During the year 2000-01, the company introduced a new versatile all purpose cut size paper under the brand name TNPL OS 2000. Also, they formally launched 'TNPL Canefields' copier paper in the Australian market. In March 2001, the company increased the wind ... farm capacity from 15 MW to 18 MW, by installing 4 nos of 750 KW each wind turbines at Devarkulam.
During the year 2002-03, the company commissioned the Bio-methanation plant to treat around 12000 cu m of biogas (methane) per day, to be used as fuel in the limekiln. They completed the upgrades of both Beloit and Voith paper machines and production capacity increased from 180,000 tpa to 230,000 tpa.
During the year, the company launched a new product named Hitech Maplitho plus with 90% brightness and improved optical properties. Also, they entered into a long-term agreement with Terra Energy Ltd, a subsidiary company of Thiru Arooran Sugars for procuring bagasse in exchange of steam.
During the year 2003-04, the company upgraded the paper machines and pulp mills at a capital outlay of Rs 140 and increased the installed capacity form 180000 Mts to 230000 Mts per annum. In March 2004, the company installed 3 nos of 1250 kw capacity wind turbines at Devarkulam, thereby enhancing the overall wind farm capacity from 18 MW to 21.75 MW.
During the year 2004-05, the company introduced two new products, namely, TNPL Offset Printing and TNPL Elegant Printing. They entered into a long term agreement with Tamil Nadu Forest Plantation Corporation Ltd for continuous supply of pulpwood. In February 2006, the company increased the wind farm capacity from 21.75 MW to 28 MW by installing 5 Nos. of 1250 KW wind energy generators at Devarkulam.
During the year 2006-07, the company installed 6 wind electric generators of 1250 KVA each and increased the wind farm capacity from 28 MW to 35.5 MW. They installed a 200 tpd Cut Pack line during the year and increased the conversion capacity from 150 tpd to 350 tpd.
The company received Special Export Award from CAPEXIL in recognition of outstanding export performance. They received 'Best Energy Conservation Award' for the year 2007 from Government of Tamil Nadu. They also received TERI Corporate Environmental Award 2008 for efforts towards environmental management and innovative initiatives among corporate.
The company installed new 300 tpd state-of-the-art Hardwood Pulp Line with ECF bleaching and a 500 tpd ECF bleach plant for Chemical Bagasse Pulp with supporting system. They also set up a state-of-art Clonal Propagation and Research Centre (CPRC) for producing about 1.5 crore high quality clones per annum.
The company has initiated action for which would augment the paper production capacity from 2,45,000 tonnes per annum to 4,00,000 tonnes per annum utilizing the surplus pulp generated under the Mill Development Plan. The company is also undertaking the Life cycle Extension programme, under which the Paper Machine 1 installed during 1985 will be upgraded.
The company plans to increase the plantation area by about 15,000 acres per annum to reach the target of one-lakh acres by the year 2012-13. They also propose to install a 400 tpd dry process cement plant within the factory complex converting the waste fly ash and lime sludge generated in the factory, into high quality cement.
During FY2014, the company began work on setting up a state-of-the-art Multilayer Double Coated Board Plant with an annual capacity of 200,000 tonnes at a Greenfield site in Manaparai Taluk, Trichy District (Tamil Nadu State). The capital outlay for this project is estimated at Rs.1500 cr. and is scheduled to be completed by December 2015.
A De-inking pulp plant with a capacity of 300 tonnes per day was commissioned during the FY14 to augment in-house pulp production. A 125 tonnes per hour capacity high-pressure boiler and a 41MW capacity Turbo Generator (TG) were commissioned during the year. As a consequence, the company is now almost self-sufficient in power.
A 100 tpd Wet Ground Calcium Carbonate (WGCC) plant has been completed on a Build, Own Operate basis (BOO) through M/s OMYA, Switzerland. The total requirement of WGCC for manufacture of paper will be met from this source at a substantially lower cost.
During FY 2013-14, installation and commissioning of one number of High Pressure CFBC Boiler of 105 ata, 125 tph along with one number of 41 MW TG to replace three numbers of old 44 ata, 60 tph, Power Boilers and 2 number of TGs totaling 18.5 MW under 'Ravamping of Steam and Power System' (RSPS) was done. It resulted in reduction of imported coal by 4598 MT thereby saving Rs.233 lakhs apart from meeting the plant requirement.
During FY 2013-14, about 8,474 acres of plantation have been raised through Farm forestry and Captive plantation. TNPL has achieved the target of 1.00 lakh acres by end of 2013-14.
TNPL has installed a series of rainwater harvesting structures in the factory campus. With the implementation of various water conservation measures, fresh water consumption has been reduced to 42 Kl. per ton of paper- the lowest in Industry. Continuous efforts are made to further reduce water consumption.
During FY 2013-14, TNPL has set up a state-of-the-art Deinking Pulp line (DIP) of capacity 300 tpd. The plant was commissioned on July 1, 2013. The plant is in continuous operation since then. The commissioning of DIP line is an important milestone in the history of the company. The DIP line gives tremendous flexibility in managing the raw material supply chain to meet the annual production target.
During FY 2013-14, to revamp its Steam and Power system, TNPL has installed and commissioned a new Circulating Fluidised Bed Combustion (CFBC) boiler of 125 tph steam generation capacity replacing three old low pressure boilers of 60 tph each. Along with the CFBC boiler, a new Turbo Generator (TG) set of 41 MW power generation capacities has also been installed replacing two old TG sets of total capacity18 MW.
In FY 2013-14, TNPL entered into an agreement with M/s.Omya India Limited, a fully owned subsidiary of M/s.Omya, Switzerland, to set up Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC) and Wet Ground Calcium Carbonate (WGCC) plant on Build, Own and Operate (BOO) basis.
