Definition

material entity which has the production consumable role

Semi-Formal Definition:

every instance of β€˜production consumable’ is defined as exactly an instance of β€˜consumable’ that β€˜has role’ some β€˜production consumable role’

Explanatory Notes

See the expanded definition under the corresponding role class. The term is formalized here as a defined class by referring to its corresponding role class and exists primarily for ontological modeling and implementation convenience.

Examples

  • Benzoyl Peroxide used as a free-radical initiator in vinyl chloride polymerization; Deionized water used as a suspension medium in PVC polymerization and partially lost through evaporation; High-speed steel drill bits used in drilling operations and consumed after 200–400 drilling cycles; Single-use bioreactor bag used for mammalian cell culture and discarded after use; sterile filter used for media sterilization and discarded after filtration; Disposable depth filter used in harvest clarification and discarded post-use;

Counter-Examples

  • Water employed in the Steam Reforming Process of Methane. Steam reacts with Methane at very high temperature in the presence of a Ni catalyst to produce Hydrogen and a CO/CO2 mixture. Though steam is fed in excess to avoid the carbonization of the catalyst, and is partly lost, certain amount of it is converted into Hydrogen. Therefore, water plays a raw material role;Water inside a closed-loop cooling system circuit that is part of a chemical reaction process. Since it is a closed system, water is not lost through evaporation, and it does not need a chemical/biological treatment. In consequence, it does not need to be recovered.
