"Chemical engineering is an engineering field which deals with the study of operation and design of chemical plants as well as methods of improving production."
The design, development, and operation of industrial processes that convert raw materials into useful products.
Chemistry: The study of the composition, properties, and behavior of matter.
Mathematics: The study of numbers, quantities, and shapes, and their relationships.
Thermodynamics: The study of the relationships between heat, energy, and work.
Fluid mechanics: The study of how fluids behave under various conditions and how they can be used to solve engineering problems.
Mass and energy balances: The study of the conservation of mass and energy in chemical processes.
Unit operations: The individual physical and chemical processes used in chemical engineering, such as distillation, filtration, and crystallization.
Process design: The creation of a plan or blueprint for a chemical process.
Chemical kinetics: The study of the rates and mechanisms of chemical reactions and how to control them.
Transport phenomena: The study of the movement of matter, energy, and momentum in fluids and solids.
Process control: The use of technology to maintain a chemical process at a desired level of performance.
Environmental engineering: The application of science and engineering principles to protect and improve the natural environment.
Materials science: The study of the properties of materials, including metals, ceramics, and polymers.
Safety and health: The study of how to ensure that chemical processes are safe for workers and the environment.
Process economics: The study of the cost of producing chemicals and how to optimize production processes to reduce costs.
