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.).
None.
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.
The following procedures offer a similar functionality:
● Bulk to Discrete Generic Box Procedure
● Discrete to Bulk Generic Box Procedure
● Discrete Pass-Through / Bulk Separation Generic Box Procedure
