Experience with Company-Wide Mass and Utilities Balancing

8 EXPERIENCE WITH COMPANY-WIDE MASS AND UTILITIES BALANCING [Pg.481]

Some examples of producing systems where the balancing system with reconciliation IBS described in this chapter is used are presented in Table 13-3. [Pg.481]

Number of streams and nodes fluctuates according to the operation of the system. It can be surprising that the number of nodes is greater than the number of streams in some cases. It is caused by nodes (mostly environment nodes) which are active only occasionally (imagine for example the set of customers represented by nodes where products are shipped). Some values of flows and inventories are set as fixed which means that they are not subjected to reconciliation. [Pg.482]
