Coffee is made using a variety of methods, but all of them involve using hot water to extract the
flavor compounds out of coffee beans. A simplified process for making coffee is given below.
1) Grind roasted coffee beans using a coffee grinder.
2) Heat water.
3) Pour hot water over ground coffee in a filter.
4) Collect the water in a pot.
5) Dispose of spent coffee grounds.
1. Using the process description above, create a basic block flow diagram of the CO2 process
for decaffeination showing all the steps.
2. Now create a new process flow diagram by substitute equipment symbols (see below) for
the blocks.
3. Label the streams.
4. Create a stream table.
