Objectives
Chemical Engineering is concerned with the design and operation of processes for making a wide range of products on which everyone's standard of living depends. These include food, fuels, medicines, plastics and the basic materials for high technology industries. Once a chemical, biological or physical process has been successfully accomplished on the laboratory scale, professional engineering skills are required to translate it into industrial practice which is safe, economically viable and environmentally acceptable.
