2. Arcelor Mittal Background  Largest Steel Producing Company in the World  Steels used for automotive purposes have great quality properties Allows for easy recycling of elements  Heading a charge to try to increase the longevity of the iron ore supply

3. Problem Statement  Separate high alloyed steel from scrap metal To not cause off chemistry steel To decrease alloy costs  We need to be more efficient in recycling because the finite quantity of iron ore.

4. Mission Statement  Separate advanced high strength steel (AHSS) from scrap autos.  Use mix of AHSS and low carbon aluminum-killed (LCAK) scrap to make LCAK heat.  Utilize AHSS scrap to make line pipe heat.  Calculate additional alloys needed.

6. Design Implementation  Similar to steel separation processes today, but making it more efficient Wind Turbine to remove fabrics and plastics Rotating Disk Electromagnet to separate high and low alloys Scanner Tunnel to Detect amounts of various elements Dual Conveyors to simultaneously package specified loads

7. Rollers and Wind Turbine  Rollers obtain spikes that will crush the large parts into smaller pieces Continuous movement to make process quicker  Wind Turbine acts a vacuum to suction out the lightweight fabrics and plastics Large tube will take these to different storage

8. Rotating Disk  The disk will continuously rotate hovering above the conveyor belt  Electromagnet is held in place above with a portion missing to allow material to drop  As material passes it will be lifted, and dropped onto a new conveyor  Only high alloy steels will be transferred here

9. Scanner Tunnel  Scanner will have a computer hard drive that detects amounts of different elements in the materials  Computer will then determine which conveyor the material will go to based on the amount of each element already present in the package  Controls the movement of the material via the two conveyors
