Iron and steel industry flows: A question

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the steel-making process, specifically the flows leading up to casting. The participant seeks validation of a flow diagram that illustrates the use of natural gas reforming to generate hydrogen for reducing iron ore. Feedback indicates that the proposed flow is generally accurate, with no major errors identified. Further review has led to a refined materials flow schematic. The conversation emphasizes the importance of clarity in representing industrial processes.

Hello, I have a general question for the flows of steel-making up to the casting process.

Is the general flow depicted by the image correct? This specific process relies on natural gas reforming to produce H2, which is then used to reduce iron ore. Are there any corrections that I have to make?

It is an explanatory table in broad strokes, I do not see any gross error that deserves correction
 
After some further reading/review, this is the latest materials flow schematic I'm going with:

Thread 'E-Bike/Scooter Li Battery Fires'

How E-Bike Battery Fires Became a Deadly Crisis in New York City https://www.yahoo.com/news/e-bike-battery-fires-became-120807964.html Do not bring Li batteries into an apartment or occupied structure. They should be stored in non-flammable structures, either metal, brick or cement/concrete. Don't overcharge batteries. Know what to do if one catches fire. Keep them away from flammable materials. Make sure the batteries are not counterfeit. Be cautious of used or damaged batteries.

Thread '2:1 Pulley Question'

I have Mass A being pulled vertically. I have Mass B on an incline that is pulling Mass A. There is a 2:1 pulley between them. The math I'm using is: FA = MA / 2 = ? t-force MB * SIN(of the incline degree) = ? If MB is greater then FA, it pulls FA up as MB moves down the incline. BUT... If I reverse the 2:1 pulley. Then the math changes to... FA = MA * 2 = ? t-force MB * SIN(of the incline degree) = ? If FA is greater then MB, it pulls MB up the incline as FA moves down. It's confusing...

Thread 'Why do all my clocks run slow?'

Hi. I noticed that all electronic devices in my household that also tell time eventually lag behind, except the ones that get synchronized by radio signal or internet. Most of them are battery-powered, except my alarm clock (which runs slow as well). Why does none of them run too fast? Deliberate design (why)? Wrong temperature for quartz crystal? Decreasing battery voltage? Or just a coincidence?
