Only desired product and one recorded waste stream are shown; other material is not listed.
Process A: 85 g desired product; 12 g recorded waste.
Process B: 90 g desired product; 18 g recorded waste.
Process C: 75 g desired product; 5 g recorded waste.
These controlled model trials use the same input amount. The process must make at least 80 g of desired product. Which eligible process has the least recorded waste?
Answer & why
Answer: Process A
First keep processes making at least 80 g. Among them, Process A has the smallest recorded waste. Other costs or hazards would require additional criteria.
Only desired product and one recorded waste stream are shown; other material is not listed.
Process A: 75 g desired product; 8 g recorded waste.
Process B: 68 g desired product; 3 g recorded waste.
Process C: 80 g desired product; 12 g recorded waste.
These controlled model trials use the same input amount. The process must make at least 70 g of desired product. Which eligible process has the least recorded waste?
Choose only the largest product amount.
