Linde has announced that it has signed agreements for two air separation units (ASUs) and extended its existing supply of industrial gases to Tata Steel in Odisha, India.

Linde already supplies industrial gases to Tata Steel's iron and steel manufacturing plant in the Kalinganagar industrial complex.

The company will now acquire two additional large production units, more than doubling its on-site capacity.

Linde has also signed a long-term agreement with Tata Steel for the supply of oxygen, nitrogen and argon to support the customer's major capacity expansion project.

As well as supplying Tata Steel, the new ASUs will meet local market demand for industrial gases.

Linde has signed agreements to supply renewable energy to the plant, reducing Scope 2 emissions in line with Linde's absolute GHG emissions reduction target for 2035.

' The new agreements to support Tata Steel's major capacity expansion build on our existing long-term relationship and further strengthen our position as a supplier of essential industrial gases to the steel industry', said Moloy Banerjee, Linde's President ASEAN & South Asia.
