PROCESS MODELLING AND DEBOTTLENECKING STUDY OF A VACCINE PRODUCTION
ABSTRACT: The main objective of this research work was to model and optimise the production of a locally-developed Infectious Coryza (IC) vaccine. The simulation work was performed using a commercially available batch process simulator SuperPro Designer v5.5. Six debottlenecking schemes were analyse...
