In chemical process industries, mixing and blending are one of the most frequently used and demanding processes. The process of combining the ingredients results in the creation of a new chemical or new batch of the same chemical with different chemistry. The blending procedure can potentially save manufacturers time, labor, inventory, and transportation costs, which result in better customer service.
In this session, we’ll learn a different variation of blending, its complexity, and SAP best practices around chemical blending within the chemical industry.
Key Business Benefits:
- Optimize on-hand stock levels and reduce working capitals
- Process automation and simulation capabilities enhance KPIs (i.e., on-time delivery and manufacturing lead time)
- Ability to compare the blend proposal with customer specification and provide batch metrics to support and enhance available-to-promise
