• Greater material yields are achieved because of less material loss through clean-down and changeover of equipment.
• The continuous process ensures that greater control over reactions is achieved resulting in less out of spec and by-products.

Lower overheads

• In comparison to that of traditional batch processes, greater plant uptime is achieved.
• Continuous production provides considerable savings in utility costs.
• Space requirements are significantly less thus lowering general overheads.
• Less waste management and disposal costs

Lean Supply chain

• The change from traditional batch processes to a leaner, more flexible supply chain reduces many costs including those associated with product storage, obsolescence, and transport in addition to poor customer service levels.
