Did you ever wonder how keeping food fresh for a longer time is possible? Did you ever wonder how polythene and nylon are produced? Well, you might know this already. But does a bionic plant, carbon nanotubes, fog harvesting makes you curious to think about how they can be used to improve the things and world around you? If this excites you, you should opt for chemical engineering! The topic mentioned above is just a few examples of what is covered in chemical engineering. The simpler term is the study of how raw materials are turned into everyday, useful, and specialized products.
Chemical engineering is a branch of engineering which is multi-disciplinary. It combines experimental and natural sciences like physics and chemistry along with life science like microbiology, biology, biochemistry, etc., and above that, mathematics and economics to develop, design, transform, produce, operate, transport, and manage the industrial process which turns the raw materials into a useful or valuable product.
In the first few years of chemical engineering, subjects like applied mathematics, applied physics, applied chemistry, communication skills, computer programming languages, solid mechanics, basic electrical engineering, engineering drawing, etc. are covered.
Once the two semesters are completed, the students are introduced to core subjects like Engineering chemistry, Fluid Flow, Thermodynamics, Process Calculations, Chemical Technology, Solid Fluid Mechanical Operations (SFMO), Mechanical Equipment Design, Chemical Engineering Economics, Computer Programming, and Numerical Methods, Mass Transfer Operations, Heat Transfer Operations, Chemical Reaction Engineering, Business Communication, and Ethics, Environmental Engineering, Transfort Phenomenon, Plant Engineering & Industrial Safety, etc.
The skills gained by the students while pursuing the chemical engineering degree are Deep Knowledge of chemical engineering methods, theories, and practices, Knowledge of core scientific topics Understanding scientific literature and ways to use it, Understanding the manufacturing processes, Knowledge of terminologies used in the material, minerals, and chemical industries, Advanced numeracy skills, Ability to analyze complex data sets and form conclusions, Advanced laboratory skills, Commercial Awareness of chemical engineering fields, Good understanding of IT and computer-aided design (CAD) software, Awareness, and understanding of ethical issues within chemical engineering, Time management, independent learning and organization skills, Problem-solving and decision-making skills, etc.
For becoming eligible for admission in any engineering institute, the student should have passed the class 12 with an aggregate of 50% with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics as core subjects from any relevant board like CBSE or any State Board. The student should also pass the entrance exams and tests conducted by the government. Depending upon the score of the students, they will be allotted with a college. Better the score, better the college allotted.
The chemical engineers work considering the management of resources, economic viability, sustainability, environmental impact, health, safety, etc. Chemical engineers have a flourishing future, great job flexibility, and also has numerous growth opportunities.
