Abstract: The present invention is directed to a batch system for managing and analyzing batch runs of a batch process in a process cell. The batch system includes a computer readable medium, a plurality of batch management routines and a plurality of batch analysis routines stored on the computer readable medium and adapted to be executed by the at least one processor. The batch management routines are operable to schedule batch runs and create and edit recipes for the batch process. The batch analysis routines include a batch filter routine, a golden batch routine, a cycle time analysis routine, and a report wizard routine.

Abstract: A system for monitoring and controlling a batch process. The system includes a control system that is operable to control the batch process and to receive measured process variables of the batch process. An analyzer analyzes a material sample from the batch process and generates array data representative of the composition of the material sample. An analyzer controller is operable to collect the array data from the analyzer and the measured process variables from the control system. A software data server running on a computer is operable to retrieve the array data and the measured process variables from the analyzer controller. A software information management system running on the computer is operable to receive the measured process variables and the array data from the data server and to store the measured process variables and the array data in a database in an associated manner.
