EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In the current scenario‚ the major bottlenecks in the system are the drying units for wet berries and the berry separation lines. While the drying units’ capacity can be increased by purchasing additional units‚ the throughput of the system will still be limited by the limitation of the separation lines. If the average rate of inflow of berries is 1500bbl/hr‚ then with the effective separation capacity of 1200bbl/hr‚ the plant will incur a backlog of 300bbl/hr. If the shift start
