Description
Summary:The objective of this project is to design and build a model of a batch process and model and simulate, and conduct a performance analysis using ARENA simulation tool. The scope of this project is to focus on a soap batch process that produces products of different flavours. It will involve mixing of different kinds of composition of chemicals to produce different flavour ofliquid soaps. Its aim is so that through the analysis, efficiency of the plant would be conducted; process time and also the queue time from one batch to another. Thus, not only will it be reliable, but its availability and efficiency may increase. This report focuses on these sections: Background Study, Problem Statement, Objectives and Scope, Literature Review, Methodology and results and discussion. The procedures taken include data gathering, model building, simulation and analysis. To improve the understanding of the ARENA simulation tool, further research needs to be done to familiarize with the use of the software. Besides that, studies on the principles and theories on how to simulate a model are crucial to achieve a working simulation. Once the analysis has been done, the results will be analyzed in a report form.
