Multi‐product plants are very flexible units which are finding increasing use in the chemical industry, e. g. for the production of fine chemicals, pharmaceutical active compounds and automotive paints. Various concepts have become established for multi‐product plants, depending on the area of use and existing conditions. Technical equipment fitting in with these plant concepts is characterized by standardization, multi‐product suitability and a particularly broad area of use. The paper describes four multi‐product plant concepts and suggests criteria for selecting the suitable concept for a particular case.
