Some of the most basic skill for every chemical process engineer is the development of block flow diagram (BFD), Process Flow Diagram (PFD) and Piping and Instrumentation Diagram (P&ID). Although the draft can be done manually, CAD software is used for drawing and issue of engineering drawings. I learned to use Autocad during my...

Although it seems a dumb subject, the main objective of this article is to show you how to build a technical argument. In your career, people will question your work eventually. In order to not get embarrassed with your answer, read carefully to these works. I do not intend to solve the discussion between...

Let’s talk about process engineering drawings: Block Flow Diagram (BFD), Process Flow Diagram (PFD) and Piping/Process and Instrumentation Diagram (P&ID). Block Flow Diagram BFD is used in the early stage of a project. It can be drawn with boxes and there is no need for details. The main purpose of this drawing is to...
