With increased environmental damage, most of the industries have started implementing operational ways to accommodate healthy environments. Especially the TMT bar manufacturing companies are incorporating environment friendly techniques to reduce CO2 emissions with their sustainable practices. In the construction industry, the most critical area to focus on has always been the use of Thermo-Mechanically Treated bars that reinforces the concrete structures. We at Govvinda, focused on revolutionizing the infrastructure industry with our TMT bar’s strength and higher flexibility playing a major role in the reduction of CO2.
Before knowing the manufacturing process of the TMT bars we need to understand the basics of the TMT bars. TMT (Thermo-Mechanically Treated) bars are the high strength reinforcement bars that are manufactured under a special thermo mechanical process that provide them with a tough outer layer along with a softer core.
Now, let’s explore the roles of TMT bars in reducing the carbon footprints of the construction projects:
Energy efficient production
The manufacturing process of our Govvinda TMT bars follows energy-efficient techniques compared to any other reinforcement bars. The thermo mechanical process includes controlled cooling that automatically minimizes the need for any extra energy consumption. Latest TMT manufacturing plants follow energy-efficient technologies like constant rolling and casting that reduces energy use and CO2 emissions.
Material efficiency
Less steel can be used in the construction as our TMT bars have a high-strength to weight ratio that do not compromise the structural integrity. As less steel is produced, there are less emissions from the processing, extraction, and transportation of the raw materials. This further lowers the CO2 emissions. Moreover, the strength and resilience of TMT bars helps in increasing the structural lifespan and reduces the scope of regular repairs. Hence, over the lifetime of the buildings, less material and resources are required that eventually results in reduced carbon emissions.
Recycling and sustainability
TMT bars are composed of steel which is one of the most recyclable materials in the world. Steel used in the manufacturing of TMT bars can be easily recycled that lowers the need for new raw materials, hence the CO2 emission that comes with them can be reduced. Along with that, the carbon footprints can be further reduced in the steel recycling process that requires less energy than producing new steel from iron ore. We at Govvinda, manufacture a large number of TMT bars using recycled steel to support a more circular and sustainable economy.
Conclusion
Govvinda TMT bars are the most crucial material in the construction industry and contribute greatly towards the eco-friendly process of constructions. The production process of our TMT bars helps in reducing the CO2 emissions as the latest technologies that we undertake focuses on using recyclable materials as well as energy efficient processes. This decreases the carbon footprint in the environment.
