Introduction To Chemical Engineering: - Process Flow Diagram

The document discusses process flow diagrams (PFDs), which are diagrams commonly used in chemical and process engineering to show the general flow of plant processes and equipment. A PFD displays the relationship between major equipment in a plant facility without minor details. It typically includes process piping, major equipment, control valves, stream names, and operational data. A PFD may be computer-generated from process simulators or CAD packages using standard chemical engineering symbols. Examples of PFDs for producing ammonia from natural gas, urea prill, oil refineries, cement, and sugar from sugarcane are also shown.

Process Flow Diagram
 A process flow diagram (PFD) is a diagram
commonly used in chemical and process
engineering to indicate the general flow of plant
processes and equipment.
 The PFD displays the relationship between major
equipment of a plant facility and does not show
minor details such as piping details and
designations.
 Another commonly-used term for a PFD is a
flowsheet.

3
Typical content of a PFD
Typically, process flow diagrams of a single unit process
will include the following:
 Process piping
 Major equipment items
 Control valves and other major valves
 Connections with other systems
 Major bypass and recirculation streams
 Operational data (temperature, pressure, mass flow rate,
density, etc.), often by stream references to a mass balance.
 Process stream names

4
Process flow diagrams generally
do not include:
 Pipe classes or piping line numbers
 Process control instrumentation (sensors and final
elements)
 Minor bypass lines
 Isolation and shut-off valves
 Maintenance vents and drains
 Relief and safety valves
 Flanges

Process flow diagrams of multiple process units within a large


industrial plant will usually contain less detail and may be
called block flow diagrams or schematic flow diagrams.

 A PFD can be computer generated from process simulators
(see List of Chemical Process Simulators), CAD packages,
or flow chart software using a library of chemical
engineering symbols. Rules and symbols are available
from standardization organizations such as DIN, ISO or
ANSI. Often PFDs are produced on large sheets of paper.

 PFDs of many commercial processes can be found in the


literature, specifically in encyclopedias of chemical
technology, although some might be outdated. To find
recent ones, patent databases such as those available
from the United States Patent and Trademark Office can
be useful.
