Jharkhand’s land degradation, driven by mining and deforestation, demands eco-friendly solutions. A modern crushing and sand-making production line can transform waste rock into high-quality aggregates, mitigating environmental impact while supporting infrastructure development.
1. Primary Jaw Crusher: Processes large rocks (500–750mm feed size) into 150–300mm pieces. Models like PE-600×900 offer 50–160 t/h capacity.
2. Secondary Cone Crusher: Fine-crushing (e.g., HP200) reduces material to 20–50mm with adjustable discharge settings.
3. Tertiary Impact Crusher: Produces 0–10mm sand with cubic-shaped particles (e.g., VSI-1140, 60–180 t/h).
4. Vibrating Screens: Multi-deck screens (3YK-2160) classify aggregates into 0–5mm, 5–10mm, and 10–20mm grades.

| Equipment | Model | Capacity (t/h) | Output Size (mm) | Power (kW) |
|——————–|————|—————-|——————|————|
| Jaw Crusher | PE-600×900 | 50–160 | 150–300 | 75 |

A Jharkhand-based plant processed granite waste into construction sand (<5mm) and road base (10–20mm). The line achieved:
– Output: 200 t/h of certified M-sand (IS:383).
– Land Reclamation: Reduced quarry waste piles by 30% annually.

Q1: Can local laterite stone be used?
Yes, but adjust crusher settings for higher abrasion resistance (~18% SiO₂ content).
Q2: Water scarcity solution?
