Chemistry is the foundation of our material world, and understanding the fundamentals of chemistry unlocks our ability to develop new sources of energy, create new and advanced materials, and ensure we maintain a sustainable relationship with the environment. Biochemistry and life sciences take that knowledge a step further, towards understanding the fundamentals and mechanisms of life itself – permitting us to develop life-saving medications and enhancing the ability of our planet to sustain life.
Chemical engineers are responsible for transferring fundamental knowledge into practical solutions for producing the chemical products we use every day. Whether it is the processing and production of fuel, plastics, food, paper, shampoo, or pharmaceuticals – the chemical engineer helps deliver a product that meets the need of the end user, while ensuring safety, efficiency, and economy in the manufacturing process.
Particle and droplets are virtually everywhere in the chemical, consumer products, and biopharmaceutical industries. Particles grow, agglomerate, break, dissolve, and change shape – all of which can have an impact on process performance and product quality. To successfully work with multiphase processes, scientists and engineers must fully understand and optimize the particle distributions to control process efficiency such as filtration rates, flow properties, or dissolution rates. In addition, particle distributions must be well controlled to ensure repeatable product properties such as yield purity and bulk density.
