Chemical engineering

space. What are Robots? Robots are machines that can be used to do jobs. Some robots can do work by themselves. Other robots must always have a person telling them what to do. What is Robotics? It is a branch of computer science and a variety of engineering fields that deals with the…

For the reactive flash volatilization (RFV) process based on the knowledge that the catalyst bed is preheated to high temperature, pyrolysis of the heated cellulose particles on the surface of the bed is expected to be fast enough that it will not be a rate-limiting step. Hence, the kinetics of the RFV of cellulose reduces to gasification of the produced volatile organic compounds (VOCs) on and in the catalyst bed. To represent the RFV of the VOCs from flash pyrolysis of cellulose, Aspen Plus…

anything they set their minds to. I want to study chemical engineering at Texas A&M because this school is one of the most prestigious, world-renowned universities which can offer me a valuable education in the field of chemical engineering. By obtaining a degree from Texas A&M, I will have the capability to become a knowledgeable engineer and to truly make an impact. In five years from my graduation at Texas A&M, I envision myself working as a chemical engineer at a reputable energy company…

apply that knowledge to solve problems. I believe engineers are people who use math and science to build things we all use. I think anyone can also be an engineer as long as you have the drive to make something better. One career in engineering is being a computer engineer. A computer engineer one who fixes computers and find ways to make them smaller and smarter. Computers engineers specialize in one specific area. They are usually split up into two groups with one working on the…

attended Stratford High School. During high school, William played varsity football under Coach Stackely. He was inducted into Tau Beta Pi, an engineering honor society. Most of his extracurricular activities involved several honor societies and dating girls. After high school, he was accepted into the University of South Carolina to study Chemical Engineering. Outside of school, William enjoys hunting, golf, scuba diving, fishing and attending athletic events. I asked William about the…

Laurie Taxiarchou she answered back to a couple of questions asked about being prepared and what it takes. She said “For petroleum engineers a bachelor’s degree in Petroleum Engineering is preferred, but you can also get in with degrees in Mechanical engineering, Chemical engineering, Chemical engineering or Environmental engineering”. Classes required to become an engineer are algebra, trigonometry, calculus, biology, chemistry, and physics (www.bls.gov). Most of these classes you learn in high…

OBJECTIVE: To study the chemistry behind “LIQUID LUBRICANTS: MECHANISM OF ACTION AND APPLICATIONS”. ABSTRACT: Various books and literatures provided information regarding the application of chemistry in an important and interesting area i.e. lubrication. The literature imparted the following information regarding the liquid lubricants: Lubricants are the substances that that are added to reduce friction between two surfaces. Friction is simply defined as an opposing force that comes into play…

Engineer is a rewarding job but to me there are three specific reasons I want to become an Engineer. These reasons would include using creativity, receiving higher salaries, and being proud. Using creativity everyday is a very rewarding part of engineering. According to Carl Selinger, to many people that are not engineers, engineers are not considered to be creative. However, that is not true. Merriam-Webster says that creativity is “the ability to make…

nowadays. Mechanical engineers, chemical engineers and many other types of engineers are trying their best to bring the best and safest technologies to human society. Among these varieties of engineers, electrical engineers play an important role in numerous fields. An electrical engineer has varieties of skills. They have excellent math, science and computer skills. However, being professional is not the only factor to be a great electrical engineer. Having virtue of engineering is also an…

Kimberly Masi's presentation of Mechanical Engineering had to be the most interesting to me of all the speakers. It was so captivating that it made me think of doing some research on the major, yet I barely can picture myself doing a job like that in the future. Hearing about how she was a big part of projects at Disney World that we all have heard of, is just something that I really find amazing. O'Net's definition of Mechanical Engineering: perform engineering duties in planning and designing…
