How to calculate Material balance for edible oil manufacturing process?

In any process, the material balance follows a universal equation: Accumulation = Input - Output + Generation The Generation term is omitted if we are talking about the overall mass (mass is nether created nor destroyed [unless it's a nuclear plant]), and the accumulation term can be omitted if we are at steady-state. Draw a box around the process that you want to consider and look at the inputs and outputs of each stream. The material balance can be solved if the number of equations equals the number of unknowns.

The "computer" part. Humans have built computers with our understanding of cognitive science. Computers implement a processor, memory for temporary data storage (during processing, caching, etc), and a hard-drive for persistent data. A human brain can store data long term, process information, and temporarily hold small amounts of data for short times while processing the information (e.g. "Carry the 2...").
