Abstract
Mass losses during processing will result in a decrease of production yield. Losses can be separated in wanted and unwanted losses. Wanted losses are necessary to transform raw material into desired final product(s). Unwanted losses will result in additional raw material usage and generate additional waste and will therefore put the company's profit under pressure. The paper categorises mass losses that effect production yield and describes a generic model that can be used to calculate production efficiency. Increasing production efficiency is the basis for improvement and cost-cutting.
