**4. Conclusion**

This chapter discussed quality control of mass production process in the chemical industry. It reviewed a typical mass production process, identified current practice in the industry in order to guarantee quality assurance during mass production and finally proposed how this could be implemented in the chemical industry. A combination of acceptance sampling and process analytical techniques were deemed suitable for quality control during both batch and mass production.

Quality control during bulk pharmaceutical production was studied where robots and machines were subjected to decontamination quality control procedure. Tableting and encapsulating machines for drug production also needed to be properly calibrated and cleaned to ensure constant tablet weight, and also minimise contamination of products.
