Operating Mode

Continuous or Semi-Continuous

Host Equipment

Discrete 1x1 GBX

Emissions Port (Vent)

No

Special Input/Output Ports

No

 

 

Pass-Through

This unit procedure performs no composition transformations on discrete entities that are fed into the unit. It simply allows the discrete entities to pass through it. It can be useful in simulating processing steps that involve no physico-chemical transformation, yet they incur some cost (e.g. inspection, weighing, etc.).

Special Inputs / Outputs

None.

Operations

The following operation types are currently supported in the context of this unit procedure:

      Pass Through, see Discrete Pass-Through (in a GBX)

      CIP, see Clean-In-Place (CIP)

      Hold, see Holding

      SIP, see Steam-In-Place (SIP)

Note that operations CIP, Hold, and SIP are only available in semi-continuous operating mode.
