  1. Process Flow Diagrams • Why are PFDs important to optimizing a water plant? • Understand process • Train new people • Question legacy decisions • Understand changes to process

  2. Building a PFD – Step 1 • Identify the major unit operations in the process • Doesn’t have to be complicated Coagulation Filtration Pre-Sedimentation Flocculation / Sedimentation Clearwells

  3. Building a PFD – Step 2 • Identify chemical feeds • May require some investigation Alum Polymer Polymer Hypochlorite Coagulation Filtration Pre-Sedimentation Flocculation / Sedimentation Clearwells

  4. Turbidity Building a PFD – Step 3 • Identify monitoring points • Both grab and online Alum Polymer Polymer Hypochlorite Cl Residual Coagulation Filtration Pre-Sedimentation Flocculation / Sedimentation Clearwells Streaming Current

  5. Example PFD
