often regarded as the flagship of engineering disciplines
WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT?
Chemical engineers deal with many aspects of industry. They design and work on different types of industrial plants to produce from raw materials a wide range of bulk products, which are then used for making various items. These include many items that already exist in homes, for example paints and varnishes for decorating, dyes for clothes, foam for bed mattresses or fire extinguishers, plastics, shampoos and cosmetics, rubber for car and bicycle tyres, engine fuels and lubricating oils, using gas and steam for producing power, extracting gas and oil from underground or the sea bed, making medicines and vitamins, treating and cleaning water for drinking and other uses.
The chemical engineer will also be involved in making the products as efficiently as possible so that costs are kept low to keep up with the competition. They are responsible for safety and improving and keeping the environment clean.
