TOP SKILLS FOR CHEMICAL ENGINEERING GRADUATES/STUDENTS
( BOTH FRESHER AND EXPERIENCED )
Chemical Engineering Graduates
After the completion of the secondary school education which is likely 12th. If you dream to become a chemical engineer. Here are some details and skills required for a chemical Engineer. It is the old branch of engineering that exist in ancient days to develop medicines, drugs, etc. For chemical engineers thereof two opportunities in both private and public organizations, etc.
What Is Chemical Engineering ?
Many questions would ensue in your mind like “what do chemical engineers do? Where do they work? Etc.., Chemical engineering is the principle of chemistry, biology, and physics to produce drugs, fuels, foods, chemicals, and many other products. The improvement of the chemical process for changing unpurified materials or chemicals into more important resources and used to separate waste materials from chemicals. The act of using nanotechnology and nanomaterials in large-scale industries converts chemicals, raw materials, microorganisms, living cells into useful products.
What Does a Chemical Engineer Do With The Degree?
What do chemical engineers do?. They develop processes for separating components of liquids and gases by using a controlled chemical process. Chemical engineers estimate the equipment and process to verify safety and environmental regulations. They organize research to develop new and improved manufacturing processes. Chemical engineers create and manufacture a wide range of products such as dyes, paper, plastics, medicines, polymers, fertilizers, petrochemicals, pedigree, etc. They help in producing oil, gas, and LPG from both offshore and onshore fields.
What Are the Career Prospects For Chemical Engineers/Graduates:
They work for varieties of companies in different fields such as chemical production companies, pharmaceuticals, construction, petrochemical, food processing, glass and specialty chemicals, steel, and aluminum production, explosive manufacturing. The professional in chemical engineering can find jobs in other streams like oxidation, polymerization, and designing chemical equipment like heat exchangers, pressure vessels, etc.
They work in particular areas like:
- BioProcess
- Chemical Process
- Petrochemical Process
- Process Control
- Petroleum Engineer
