CBE 150: Process Flow Diagrams questions with answers

CBE 150: Process Flow DiagramsConvert raw materials into useful products by changing chemical and/or physical properties of the materials. - correct answer Chemical Processes Compact diagrams that present information about (1) the process units that carry out the chemical and physical changes and (2) the materials that flow out of the units. - correct answer Process Flow Sheets What are the different types of chemical process diagrams? - correct answer 1. Input-Output Diagrams 2. Block Flow Diagram 3. Process Flow Diagram Combines two or more inputs and makes one output. - correct answer Mixer Splits one input into 2 or more outputs of the same composition. - correct answer Splitter Takes input and allows a chemical reaction to occur; output is products plus the unreacted reactants. - correct answer Reactor Separates one input into two or more outputs of different compositions. - correct answer Separator Contains multiple process units, which are shown representationally. Usually includes equipment that changes heat (e.g. heat exchanger) or pressure. Read left-to-right, top-to-bottom. Lines with arrows indicate material flow. Contains a table with information on material flow, temperature, and pressure. - correct answer Process Flow Diagram
