Process

A Process Flow Diagram (PFD) is a schematic drawing that provides a clear understanding of a process by showing physical and process data like major equipment, main processing lines, utilities, and control elements. It shall include equipment operating in the same service, either in parallel or series, shown as one unit while omitting spare equipment. A PFD is accompanied by a heat and material balance table that can be generated by process simulators and submitted separately or below the PFD.

What is PFD :
-PFD is a schematic drawing of a process or utility unit used for developing a clear understanding of
the processing requirements.

-TPFD shows relevant physical and process data (identified with stream number), the main utilities,
the basic control elements and the main processing equipment:

PFD shall include :

-Major equipment, (items such as compressor auxiliaries are not normally shown, equipment
operating in the same service whether in parallel or series shall be shown as one unit, all spare
equipment shall be omitted)

-Main processing lines including utilities.

-Controls indicated by a simplified symbolic representation of control loops.

-Heat and Material Balance

-you can perform and generate M&H balances by process simulators such as Aspen HYSYS, Plus,
Unisim, pro II, AVEVA..etc

-heat and material balance may be submitted as a separate document or inside the file below the
PFD in a table.
