SIMULATION, MODELING AND SCHEDULING OF BATCH PROCESS MANUFACTURING FACILITIES USING PROCESS TIME LINES

摘要

A system and method for simulating and modeling of biopharmaceutical batch process manufacturing facilities and a system and method for simulating, modeling and scheduling of related equipment preparation procedures. The method includes the step of selecting a sequence of unit operations (302) wherein each of the sequence of unit operations has an identifier code (304). Next, a set of scheduling cycles is selected for each of the sequence of unit operations. A block flow diagram is then generated using the sequence of unit operations and the operational parameters. The method further includes generating a process time line using the operational parameters, the block flow diagram, and the set of scheduling cycles for each of the sequence of unit operations.
