उत्तर

Advantages of Mini Steel Plants:

  • Lower Capital Investment: Mini steel plants require much less capital to set up and operate compared to large integrated steel plants
  • Use of Electric Furnaces: They use electric arc or induction furnaces, which reduces dependence on scarce coking coal, making them more energy-efficient.
  • Reduced Transport Costs: Being located near industrial towns and consumption centers reduces transportation costs for raw materials and finished goods.
  • Eco-friendly Operations: These plants cause less pollution and are more environment-friendly than large-scale integrated plants.
