Process Design
Design
PFDs
Initial process design includes the development of Process Flow Diagrams (PFDs) that schematically convey the mass flows through the system and identify major equipment items . These high level PFDs allow the client to make any required design changes prior to committing to outline design.
P&IDs
As part of the more detailed design stages a Process and Instrumentation Drawing (P&ID) is produced that includes more details than the PFD. It includes major and minor flows, control loops and instrumentation. These P&IDs are used by Mechanical, Electrical, Instrumentation, Controls, Automation (MEICA) engineers and are used to develop the SCADA controls systems. They are also used during the HAZOP analysis. P&ID is sometimes referred to as a Piping and Instrumentation Drawing or process flowsheets.
HAZOP
Hazard and Operability Analysis (HAZOP) is a structured and systematic technique for system examination and risk management. Rodan use this technique to identify potential hazards in a process design and to identify any potential operational problems that might lead to below standard performance.
