Question

Batch process is more efficient labour user than continuous process?

(a) True

(b) False

I have been asked this question in class test.

Origin of the question is Types of Process Equipments in chapter Nitration of Unit Processes

Answer 1

Right answer is (b) False

For explanation I would say: Since continuous processing minimizes the amounts of material in process on the average, it is often possible to handle operations at one place that require physical separation in a batch process and hence require additional labour.
