Chemical Engineers Play Vital Roles in Many Aspects of Everyday Life

It is likely that most consumers do not give much thought to the origins of the products they use or the foods they eat on a daily basis, nor do they wonder how these items are developed or produced.

Yet somebody must have the responsibility for developing and creating these products or they probably would not be available to consumers at all; and this particular role falls to the chemical engineer. Basically, chemical engineers design large-scale and economical processes that convert raw materials, chemicals, energy, and perhaps microorganisms, into usable/practical shapes and products; furthermore, chemical engineers are charged with protection of the environment and natural resources as well as ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations/standards.
