2. "We plan to build a new plant at Marcy 1'$toilo(RhOne), near Lyons, for
the production of despecified bovine plasma. (This is not an industrial zone
and hence war risk will be small.) The pla twill consist of four rooms,
a fabrication or preparation room of 80- 00m7
a bottling room of 20-25 m2,
a washing room of 25-30 m , and a sterilization room of 20-25 m2. When the
plant is equipped with the items listed below it will be able to produce
10-12,000 - 500cc bottles of plasma per month. Production could easily be
expanded (see par 3).
One vat of 150-200 liters for the preparation of saline solutions.
Two containers of 100 liters each for the storage of saline solutions.
One Seitz fi.Ltration-sterilization filter for the saline solutions.
One vat of 300 liters for the storage olf citrated blood.
One Alfa Laval centrifuge for the ueparation of plasma globules from
the citrated blood.
