Requirements Analysis Progress report

There are so far about 20 people who have expressed interest in following and contributing to this, and many more listening, judging from the number of visitors here.

One person has offered a process, in fact a complete plant!

" The process starts in the cell culture lab where biologicaly engineered cells are taken from a cell bank and grown in lab scale fermentation process until enough cells are produced to seed the first industrial fermentor. Process flow is : cell Culture - Fermentation- Harvest- Recovery- Purification - Freezing. Upstream Area, Midstream Area, and Downstream Area are the main first level of physical models in the two trains. "

Unfortunately there are no P&ID's or process descriptions available, so it is not good basis to proceed with. But some modelling is possible - see
