Image 3-3 Process cell configuration
Operating batch process cells
The "Process cell configuration" figure shows that three batch process cells can exist
completely independently of each other on one common terminal and plant bus. Normally,
however, one batch process cell is adequate. A distribution over several batch process cells
is necessary only with very complex process engineering plants with an extremely large
quantity structure.
