    Bhubaneswar, 17/12/2015: The Thermal Captive Power Plant of National Aluminium Company Limited (Nalco), located at Angul, Odisha, has been awarded for ‘proactive climate change’. It may be mentioned that Nalco, as the first company in the country, is implementing a pilot-cum-demonstration project on Carbon Sequestration in its Captive Power Plant, which will reduce carbon emission by harnessing special strains of algae.

    The award was given away at a seminar on ‘Microalgae in developing a Sustainable Society’, organized jointly by State Pollution Control Board, Odisha, Indocan Technology Solutions, The Institute of Engineers (India) and Institute for Applied Environmental Biotechnology Innovation, at the State capital today.

    Gracing the occasion as Chief Guest, Mr Tapan Kumar Chand, CMD, Nalco assured the researchers, academicians and professionals present on the occasion that “Considering the exhilarating results that Nalco has achieved, we shall scale up the pilot project to a commercial plant soon.”

    On behalf of Nalco, Mr V. Balasubramanyam, Director (Production) and Mr S.K. Naik, AGM (SH & E), received the prestigious award. Besides industry, in the individual category, Mr Siddhanta Das, IFS, Addl. PCCF (Nodal) was also awarded on the occasion.
