PAUL BUTRICOPOE, Block 4 A/C
Chemical Engineering
OVERVIEW OF THE FIELD A sect of engineering dealing with the
industrial application of chemistry. Broken up into several subfields
Catalyst and Reaction Engineering Computing Systems Technology Fuels and Petrochemicals Forest Bioproducts Nuclear Engineering Pharmaceutical Engineering Bio Engineering
Chemical EngineeringCATALYST AND REACTION ENGINEERING
Study how chemical reactions can be used to transform raw materials into useful substances.
Spend large amount of time using chemical reactors. Use knowledge of kinematics of reactions and how
catalysts influence the rate of reactions to solve problems, conduct experiments, and to try and discover useful applications of the products created.
The ultimate goal for engineers in this subfield is to use chemical reactions to produce usable energy.
Average Salary: $96,000
Chemical Engineering
COMPUTING SYSTEMS TECHNOLOGY Utilize computers and mathematics, and
apply this knowledge to chemical engineering problems. problems deal with process design, process
control, operations, and applied mathematics. Use the help of computers to complete
process such as simulating experiments, modeling, synthesis, controlling and monitoring experiments, and the study and management of abnormal events.
Chemical Engineering
FUELS AND PETROCHEMICALS Petrochemicals: Petrochemicals: chemicals
obtained from petroleum and natural gas. Where and how to drill for oil.
involved in the process of foods, creation of clothes, and the recycling of materials.
Daily Tasks Design/ operation of petrochemical plants. Design/ management of environmental
controlling systems. Determination of cost-effective processes of
production. Average Salary: $96,000
Chemical Engineering
FOREST BIOPRODUCTS Push boundaries on chemically engineered
products made from forest resources and other lignocellulosic materials.
Most known for the development of “green” products. Development of biofuels, bioenergy,
biodegradable plastics, environmentally-benign adhesives, building materials, paper, and chemicals.
Starting Salary: $55,000-$75,000
Chemical Engineering
NUCLEAR ENGINEERING Develop and research the systems,
processes, and instruments to obtain benefits from nuclear radiation and energy.
Tasks: Design, opertate, and maintain, power plants. Design/ development of nuclear equipment. Gather data on nuclear accidents. Test leftover nuclear material to make sure that
it can be safely disposed of.
Chemical EngineeringNUCLEAR ENGINEERING (CONTINUED) Uses:
Energy/ Power Medical
Average Salary: $99,920*
*2010
Chemical Engineering
PHARMACEUTICAL ENGINEERING Takes part in the conception, design, scale-
up, manufacturing, labeling, and package processing, in the processes of combining biological and chemical materials.
Must abide by FDA regulations and must implement quality control, validation assurance (VA), and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP).
Average Salary: $79,890
Chemical Engineering
BIO ENGINEERING Similar to pharmaceutical engineers in
regards to medicine. Develop/ manufacture devices, instruments,
software, and procedures to solve clinical problems.
Recent achievements made by bioengineers include, artificial hearts, limbs, and joints, miniature devices for detecting and injection insulin, and laser systems used in corrective eye surgery.
Starting Salary: $54,158
