P E C L 2: Rocess Ngineering Ourse - Ecture

This document discusses block flow diagrams (BFDs) and process flow diagrams (PFDs). It explains that BFDs provide a simplified representation of a complete plant, while PFDs show more detailed process flow schemes. PFDs include equipment specifications, stream properties, process controls, indicators, and other relevant information. The level of detail in PFDs increases from feasibility studies to front-end engineering design to engineering, procurement, and construction. General procedures for drawing basic PFDs are also outlined.

(BFD and PFD)


Today’s Agenda

Block Flow Diagram (BFD) PFD updates in Different Phase of


Project

Process Flow Diagram (PFD) General Procedure to draw PFD

Not to Include in PFD

2
Block Flow Diagram (BFD)

Importance of Block Flow Diagram


u Simplified representation of Complete Plant
u Representation of each unit with simple block
u Show direction of Process flow
u Show Major flow (mass/volume) balance
u Brief details of each unit operation (Capacity, Unit no.)
u Major NNF (Normally No Flow) Flow details
u Details about no. of trains / common facility
Process Flow Diagram (PFD)

Importance of Process Flow Diagram


u Detailed representation of Complete Process flow scheme
u Equipment Short Specification
u Case Details (SOR/EOR/Design Case)
u Stream number detail (for continuous stream)
u NNF Stream Details (Normally No Flow)
u Design Pressure/ Design Temperature / Duty of each equipment details
u Primary Stream/ Secondary Stream details
u Stream Details (Properties)
u Package Items Details (Vendor Items)
Process Flow Diagram (PFD)

Importance of Process Flow Diagram


u All Indicators (PI/TI/LI/FI)
u All Basic Control (PC/TC/LC/FC)
u Sample Connection (S) and Analyzer (AI- Density, Viscosity, Oxygen, temp)
u All Process Control related to Pressure/Temp/Flow/Level – Normal
Process Flow Diagram (PFD)

Importance of Process Flow Diagram


u Shutdown Valve (Sometimes)
u Major Equipment Internal Details (Vortex Breaker, dip pipe, Divider plate,
u Major notes
u Package Details, if Available
u Holds Details (If any)
Not to Show in PFD

u All kinds of Alarms (High/High-High/Low/Low-Low), only represent normal


operation
u All DCS information and detailed instrumentation
u All Kinds of Trips and Interlock (High-High/Low-Low)
u Line no. information
u All vents and Drains information
u Major Equipment internals details (like MH, trays)
u All NNF lines (only show major NNF lines)
u All detailed notes
PFD Changes in Different Phase of Project

u Feasibility Study => Very Basic information and only show Process Scheme
without Control Information
u FEED => More Detailed Information and include Process Scheme with
major Process Control information
u EPC => Complete Information and Include all Process Scheme, all major
Process Control and Vendor Information and should be aligned with final
P&ID.
General Procedure to draw Basic PFD
