Finds documents with one or the other search term (e.g. porsche OR volkswagen).
Finds documents with all search terms. Blank space is understood as AND (e.g. man robot production).
Finds documents with no appearance of the word behind NOT (e.g. ford NOT "harrison ford").
Finds documents where the search term is mentioned at least "n" times."n" may be any number (e.g. COUNT(gear)>8).
Finds documents with both search terms in any word order, permitting "n" words as a maximum distance between them. Best choose between 15 and 30 (e.g. NEAR(recruit, professionals, 20)).

Abstract

The chapter delves into the complexities of modernizing the Freeport Miami Smelter, particularly the replacement of the Matte Settling Electric Furnace (MSEF). Key topics include the integration of advanced technologies like laser scanning and Building Information Modeling (BIM) to address brownfield constraints, the design and operational principles of the new MSEF, and the innovative solutions implemented to overcome engineering challenges. The project aimed to improve operational efficiency, reduce downtime, and align with sustainability objectives. The successful execution of the MSEF replacement project not only enhances the operational efficiency of the Freeport Miami Smelter but also provides valuable insights for similar brownfield modernization efforts globally. The chapter concludes with the pending installation of the new MSEF, highlighting the potential for sustainable smelter modernization through innovative engineering solutions.
