a) Determine which sensors and final elements are required so that the important
variables can be controlled. Sketch them in the figure using correct instrumentation
tags. Describe briefly what instruments you will use and where they should be
located. Reflect on the potential presence of a flow controller upstream of your
process design (not shown in the diagram). How would this affect the level controller in
the drum?

Question 2: Process Control
[75 marks]
As a process engineer, you are tasked to control the process shown in Figure 2. For
biomedical engineers, the process could be interpreted as the injection of a solution of a
medication compound A, with initial concentration CAO, into a human body, simplified as a
Continuously Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR). Therefore, your task is to analyse and model this
process. The equipment consists of a mixing tank, mixing pipe and CSTR.
