Publisher Summary This chapter describes the production plants and different plant types with particular attention given to multiproduct and multipurpose plants, which dominate in fine chemicals manufacture. This is intended to bring new process into account while thinking about new commercialized plants. Equipment in plants for the manufacture of fine chemicals is very much diversified and includes all types of chemical apparatuses and machinery. Some economic data on chemical equipment are also given to extend economical thinking of laboratory chemists. In sections on plant design and production planning and scheduling, typical design and planning procedures that exemplify the kind of information from the laboratory is needed to specify appropriate equipment for a process under development or to compose optimal production plans and schedules are discussed. There are three basic types of plants for the manufacture of fine chemicals namely dedicated plants, multiproduct and multipurpose plants, and mixed plants. The basic principles of good manufacture practice and guidelines are also provided.
