Chemical engineering

Do you ever wonder who’s responsible for creating the fuel sources that keep our busy world up and running? The answer is chemical engineers. A chemical engineer is a researcher who uses chemistry to solve problems related to the production of food fuel, medicines, and other products. Chemical engineers are a vital part of our society, however their expertise in energy sources is one of the most vital because of its ongoing development in our daily society. Renewable energy sources are energies…

cluster. Chemical Engineering is the career that has interested me the most because it has to do with math and science. Math and science are the classes I’m most good at and understand what it’s taught. Chemical Engineering is awesome because you can make thing that we use better or/and make new things that makes life better. I what to learn of chemical engineering because I like to experiment with things and take them apart and putting them back to its starting component. This type of…

Differential Equations was the course that made me question my decision in taking up Chemical Engineering. I actually had no idea it was this challenging. All I had in mind was that it’s just Calculus 1 and 2 combined. Before we officially started the class, Engr. Cabatingan introduced us the syllabus and made us study it. The topics were “bearable”. However, I really had no idea what was Modeling all about. We even joked about it, more so when we knew that there’s going to be a gallery walk. In…

. How do chemical engineers contribute to the fashion industry? ● Chemical engineers always try to make clothing softer, stronger, and more comfortable. In order to achieve this goal, the engineer will have to find ways to dye, coat, blend, or invent materials both naturally and synthetically through textile chemistry. Eventually they will find the perfect combination to reach their goal. 2. Explain the concept of stoichiometry. ● Stoichiometry is the 5th chemical engineering principle.…

The manufacturing of pharmaceutical tablets involves several main steps including blending, granulation, drying and milling. Each step is known as a unit operation and will be outlined below. The ingredients to make a pharmaceutical tablet will include the active pharmaceutical ingredients [API], and may require a bulking or binding agent which allows the tablet to be sufficiently large for consumption and provides sufficient surface properties of the particles within the mixture to facilitate…

 Used Lubricant Regeneration Technology Most conventional processes for used lubricant regeneration involve physical separation and chemical treatments to remove the contaminants and impurities from used lubricants to make it suitable for re-use. Some of these technologies generate liquid effluents, solid wastes, and air emissions during the regenerating process. The types of wastes, effluents, and wastes vary with the technology and processes used, and the environmental control methods [CEPA,…

next thing that was miscommunicated over the next few days following the incident were the levels of environmental contamination. Ron Lewis of the Parkersburg News and Sentinel reported that the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (OEPA) and Shell Chemical Company spokesman Rob Berger said that nothing from the fire fighter’s water sprayings made…

(2000) and Hu (2011) looked into controlling the levels of CO2 through the use of chemical additives. Hu (2011) concluded that this method could have negative side effects on recirculating aquaculture systems. The use of paddlewheel and submerged aerators for CO¬2 control was investigated by Eschar et al. (2003). He found that paddlewheel…

This chapter presents the model equations and assumptions. The physical properties of charcoal and air, the initial conditions, as well as the important system parameters are then outlined. Solution algorithm of the model equations is then explained. The effect of the intra-particle diffusion is examined by means of effective mass transfer coefficient. It can be obtained by similarity with heat transfer by conduction. Finally, the criterion for choosing the optimum switching time is set. 4.1.…

Purpose In order to align with the current Federal Drug Administation (FDA) requirements to reduce viral risk associated with the current Unclogerall® purification process at the Boston Production Facility (BPF), a viral clearance filtration step must be introduced into the manufacturing process. The proposed viral reduction step would be added after the last purification column step and prior to the final formulation of the drug substance. A laboratory scale study was completed and concluded…
