Piping and Instrumentation Diagram Development (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781394368570)

A systematic approach to developing and reading P&IDs across industries

Now in its Second Edition, Piping and Instrumentation Diagram Development provides a systematic method for developing and interpreting P&IDs, the focal documents during design, operation, and maintenance of process plants. Written by Moe Toghraei, a process engineer with over 30 years of industry experience, this updated edition expands on the original with roughly 15% new content throughout and numerous additional examples.

The book addresses the three main components of a process plant--equipment and other process items, control systems, and utility systems--with detailed P&ID development skills for each. This edition adds an entirely new chapter on Process Flow Diagram development and significantly expands Chapter 20 with more worked examples. Instrumentation content follows ISA standards throughout.

Readers will also find:

• A multidisciplinary presentation of P&ID concepts accessible to process, mechanical, and instrument and control engineers across sectors
• Detailed symbology for each element covered, drawing from international practices used in Europe, Canada, the US, and Japan
• An expanded examples chapter with additional worked problems illustrating real-world P&ID development scenarios across multiple industries
• Coverage applicable to oil refineries, gas processing plants, food processing facilities, water treatment plants, and HVAC systems
• Guidance supporting HAZOP studies, value engineering, and operational activities beyond conventional P&ID development tasks

Process engineers, instrument and control practitioners, and mechanical engineers involved in P&ID development for chemical, oil and gas, water treatment, food processing, or mining operations will find this book a direct resource for strengthening their diagramming practice and deepening their understanding of process plant design.
