• Batch processing is very different from continuous processing.

• The design equations are different—unsteady state.

• Scheduling of equipment is important.

• There are different types of scheduling patterns.

Some key reasons for choosing to manufacture a product using a batch process were discussed in Chapter 2. These include small production volume, seasonal variations in product demand, a need to document the production history of each batch, and so on.
