b. Determine the number of batches that can be produced in 500 h using a series
of single-product campaigns when the required number of batches for product
A is twice that of either product B or product C.
c. If unlimited storage space is available, how can the cycle time be improved in
this process for the campaign ABCABCABC?
If the required yearly production rates of A,B and C are 150, 210 and 360 ton
respectively, determine the number of batches and limiting reactor size for each
product. Assume 6000 h operation of plant in one year.
