All Uranium in India is mined and processed by Uranium Corporation of India Ltd. (UCIL). Since Uranium is a strategically important resource for the country even lower grade Uranium is mined and processed.

Right from the 1970s HDO has a long standing relationship with UCIL. Recently we provided equipments and engineering services for their Turamadi plant.

UCIL recently started work on a Greenfield project comprising of a new Uranium mine development and a 900,000 TPA ore processing plant at Tummalapalle in Andhra Pradesh.

For this project, BARC and HDO jointly did the filtration test work to identify process requirements for tender preparation.

HDO won the EPC for the entire Uranium ore processing plant on a turnkey basis. HDO tied up with various technology players to provide the most suitable and most cost effective solution to the client.

Accomplishments:
  • This is the biggest order ever bagged by Hindustan Dorr-Oliver
  • First project in the minerals sector where HDO is providing EPC for the entire processing plant
  • First time alkaline leaching method for leaching Uranium ore adopted anywhere in Asia
  • HDO to manufacture the world’s biggest leach reactors for this project. This will be done at HDO’s manufacturing facility in Vatva, Ahmedabad using INCONNEL 600 clad SA 516 grade plates.
