Heat and Material Balance (H&MB) is one of the basic process engineering documents produced by process design engineers in which energy and material output from a system that equals energy input. A H&MB document includes operating conditions, compositions and key physical properties of every major process streams on the Process Flow Diagram (PFD). A H&MB may be included as part of a PFD or a separate document, particularly when several operating cases are evaluated. A H&MB is a deliverable document of the FEED and Detailed Design and Engineering developed by a Process discipline.
