Embodiments relate generally to reconfigurable modular processing facilities and methods for constructing and operating such. For example, a method for constructing a reconfigurable modular processing facility may comprise assembling a plurality of vertical walls, wherein the spaces between the walls define a plurality of stations; assembling a plurality of horizontal levels, wherein the spaces between the levels and the walls define the plurality of stations; constructing a lift within a center portion of the facility, wherein the lift is configured to access each of the plurality of stations; assembling one or more pods sized to fit within the stations, wherein the pods contain process equipment; configuring a process within the facility by moving one or more pods into one or more stations; and connecting the one or more pods to one another to complete the configuration of the process.
