Question 1
Sketch a P&ID to represent the following system:
Natural gas from a transmission pipeline is to be separated from any potential liquid using a two-
phase vertical separator. Liquid is to flow out the base of the vessel under level control. The
vapour phase will leave via the top of the vessel with the following instrumentation feeding back
to the control system:
i.
ii.
iii. Flow
iv. Gas composition via gas chromatograph analysis
Relevant Data
• Use the NG P&ID Legend Sheet. All equipment, valves, instruments, and lines are to be
tagged.
Pressure
Temperature
• The two-phase separator is equipped with a PSV that vents safely to atmosphere, set at vessel
design pressure
➜ Vessel details:
●
• Design pressure: 15,300 kPag / FV
Design temperature: -10/70°C
Material: carbon steel
Diameter: 1,200 mm
• Height (T-T): 3,000 mm
●
Question 2
Sketch a P&ID to represent the following system: A water and ethanol mix is to be pumped
using a centrifugal pump from the base of a vertical vessel under level control, through a pre-
heater (heat exchanger with steam as the heating medium) to a set product temperature before
entering a distillation column. Details on the upstream vessel and distillation column are not
required.

• Use the NG P&ID Legend Sheet. All equipment, valves, instruments, and lines are to be
tagged.
