Process & Instrumentation diagram


Explanation:
"Prepare a **Process and Instrumentation (P&I) diagram** for the experimental apparatus. It is critical to identify all measurement points for temperatures, flow rates, pressures, etc. and all sampling points on the diagram. Show equipment items, the flow of materials, and all control (manipulated) valves and other important valves, such as inlet steam, cooling water, etc. on your diagram."
