A steelmaking processing plant (ArcelorMittal) which is based in the South Africa, Vanderbijlpark which produces different grades of steel is faced with a challenge of emitting greenhouse gases (GHG) i.e CO2 after the steel has been produced. These products have been stored in various storages facilities within the premises of the company, notably some of these gases escape into the atmosphere. However, due to environmental legislation that forces the company to either find sustainable disposal or reuse methods, the management of the company have decided to reuse the produced CO2 to produce value-added products from these sources of gases.To execute this task, the company directors have assembled a team of young, skilled and talented Metallurgists, which you are part of the solution, to come up with strategies of producing value added products. In this team, your duty is to propose a solution (metallurgical/chemical) process that can lead to the successful production of various value-added products for commercial purpose 1.A detailed process flow diagram (PFD) showing the proposed metallurgical/chemical processe using Potential Products:
Synthetic Methane (
): Renewable natural gas alternative.
Carbon Dioxide for Enhanced Oil Recovery (
): Increases oil well productivity.
Salicylic Acid (C7H6O3): A key ingredient in pharmaceuticals and plastics. 2.Please alsoo explain the process flow diagram thoroughly
