1. Material Handling: The handling of waste materials and the production of syngas require special attention as the process generates different types of waste and byproducts, which need to be managed and stored properly.
2. Safety: The industrial waste-to-syngas-to-methyl methacrylate facilities involve hazardous materials such as chemicals, high temperature, and pressure, which mandates adherence to safety protocols to avoid accidents, explosions, and health hazards.
3. Process Optimization: Continuous process improvement is essential to enhance the efficiency of the plant, reduce costs, increase productivity, and minimize waste generation.
4. Environmental Impact: The production of syngas from waste materials, if not controlled appropriately, can generate undesirable greenhouse gas emissions, odors, and toxic components, which require careful assessment and control.
5. Energy Consumption: The facility must be designed to optimize the use of energy and reduce the carbon footprint by using renewable energy sources, process in-house waste, and utilize excess heat from the process.
6. Cost: The facility's design must optimize the usage of resources, minimize maintenance requirements, and maximize the production of desired products to ensure profitability and sustainability.
7. Regulations: The production of syngas from industrial waste requires compliance with local, state, and federal regulations governing safety, environmental impacts, and waste management.
