Thoothukudi (Tamil Nadu): The Sterlite Copper smelting plant resumed the production of medical oxygen on Wednesday, days after a technical snag led to the suspension of operations.
The production of medical oxygen had begun on 13 May at the Vedanta-owned Sterlite copper plant.
The company had roped in a five-member expert team from the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) to rectify the glitch.
After the plant began operations, around 6.34 MT of oxygen were supplied by evening.
