Abstract
This chapter focuses on the manufacture of different types of similar products in batches (e.g. different organic chemicals, pharmaceutical items, steam distillation of different grasses and plant material, dyes, and types of paint). Generally, a single production line can be used for many products, and hence, it can reduce initial capital required for setting up many production units.
