Hi, Can anyone give me some guidance on how to conduct a mass balance on raw material and packaging?

If there is a procedure or template that I could look at that would be great.

Many thanks in advance.

Thks for yr Query and Welcome to the Forum !

Have a look at this recent thread -

http://www.ifsqn.com...=+mass +balance

I must confess that this topic usually leaves me in utter confusion. Various posters have requested illustrative, practical, numerical examples. So far, all the contributions have mystified rather than enlightened me. :smile:

It should be so simple, ie - Input = Output + Losses

The problem as usual is in the (process) details, eg frying causes X%water loss but Y%oil addition.
