In this video, I explain Block Flow Diagrams (BFD), Process Flow Diagrams (PFD), and Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams (P&ID), highlighting their purpose, differences, and key milestones. I also cover P&ID revisions and how they evolve through a project. This is Part 1 — Part 2 will explore the full P&ID anatomy, including equipment identification, instrumentation details, and other critical elements. Stay tuned!
Why Green Hydrogen Faces an Uphill Battle in the MENA Region I once told a friend, “Producing green hydrogen for domestic use in the Middle East is economically unviable and a dealbreaker for investors. The real potential lies in exporting it to Europe, creating a new economic opportunity.” To understand
What does ‘carbon neutral’ means, let's say at a cold night I started a BBQ. If I am burning 1 kg of coal, approximately 2.5 to 3.5 kg of CO₂ is emitted into the atmosphere. Now, if I plant a tree the very next day, that
Importance of Flaring Systems: Why Do We Need Them? If industrial systems are designed to operate flawlessly, why do process engineers include relief and flaring systems? The answer lies in safeguarding against overpressure scenarios. No system is immune to human error or equipment failure, and these systems are essential to
