PROCESS CONTROL

Abstract
The objective of process control is to keep key process-
operating parameters within narrow bounds of the reference
value or setpoint.
. A control loop for a given process must have at least one
sensor, a controller, and a control element to which the results
are applied.

PROCESS CONTROL

1-Intorduction
Process controls play an important role in how a plant process upset can be
controlled and subsequent emergency actions executed. Without adequate and
reliable process controls, an unexpected process occurrence cannot be
monitored, controlled, and eliminated. Process controls can range from simple
manual actions to computer logic controllers, remote from the required action
point, with supplemental instrumentation feedback systems. These systems
should be designed to minimize the need to activate secondary safety devices.
The process principles, margins allowed, reliability, and the means of process
control are mechanisms of inherent safety that will influence the risk level at a
facility.
A piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID) is defined as follows: A diagram
which shows the interconnection of process equipment and the instrumentation
used to control the process. In the process industry, a standard set of symbols is
used to prepare drawings of processes.
A diagram which shows the interconnection of process equipment and the
instrumentation used to control the process. In the process industry, a standard
set of symbols is used to prepare drawings of processes. The instrument
symbols used in these drawings are generally based on International Society of
Automation (ISA) Standard S5.1
For example look at the below diagram

2-Equipment P&IDs
For the diagrams below Each equipment were drown individually with i
2.1 -the mixer E1
the mixer is feed with propylene and the
tripropyl aluminum catalyst
the feed stream is controlled by flow
transmitter, controller and a control
valve. The output stream is controlled by
level control , transmitter and control
valve.

2.2- heat exchangers 1H , 2H


The 1H and 2H heat exchangers going
to heat up the flow . the exchanger is
controlled by
Temperature transmitter , controller
and a control valve
The transmitter connected to the main
flow and linked with the controller
which will control the flow of the
steam

2.3-the dimerization reactor E3


the major factors in is reactor control
system was the liquid level in the reactor
, flow and the temperature
the temperature was controlled by the
1H unit where the flow was controlled
by flow transmitter and the controller
where the level was controlled by the
level transmitter and the controller

the control system for the flash tower aimed to
control the flow rate the the tower and the
pressure
the control system containing flow transmitter ,
controller and a control valve , the pressure was
controlled by transmitter , controller and a
control valve
the flash tower also provides a catalyst recycle
line back to the reactor E3
