Batch operation definition

Batch operation means a noncontinuous operation in which a discrete quantity or batch of feed is charged into a unit operation within a process unit and distilled or reacted at one time. Batch operation includes noncontinuous operations in which the equipment is fed intermittently or discontinuously. Addition of raw material and withdrawal of product do not occur simultaneously in a batch operation. After each batch operation, the equipment is generally emptied before a fresh batch is started.
Batch operation means, for purposes of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218 and 219, Sections 218.500 through 218.506 and 219.500 through 219.506, a noncontinuous operation in which a discrete quantity or batch of feed is charged into a chemical manufacturing process unit and distilled or reacted, or otherwise used at one time, and may include, but is not limited to, reactors, filters, dryers, distillation columns, extractors, crystallizers, blend tanks, neutralizer tanks, digesters, surge tanks and product separators. After each batch operation, the equipment is generally emptied before a fresh batch is started.
Batch operation means a type of manufacturing process in which fixed amounts of one or more process materials are introduced into a manufacturing process vessel where they are retained for a prescribed amount of time during which they are converted. Starting materials for a batch are not introduced into the vessel until the previous batch has been removed.
