Chemical Engineering

What is the specialty of Chemical Engineering:

Engineering is the design and development of all chemical or manufacturing industrial processes. The design, construction and management of plants in which chemical reactions are the primary process and the transport of matter, heat and mass, as well as multi-phase reactions and separations, are included. It is almost equivalent to the term process engineering.

The science of chemical engineering first emerged in 1908, as a result of the efforts of scientists and specialists in Europe and America who worked on studies and combined engineering and chemistry sciences, the employment of physics, chemistry, mathematics and biology sciences to contribute to many industries and the provision of products and materials useful to society, where chemical engineering is one of the broadest engineering sciences and specializes in the design, operation and construction of industrial machines and plants such as oil refineries and the production of micro-chemicals. Chemical engineering functions also include:

Production of chemicals
Operation of various factories and installations
Work on the development of atomic science
Contribution to the process of manufacturing dyes and medicines
Contribution to petrochemical operations
Contribution to food industries
Devise ways to exploit raw materials in useful industries

Specialization is taught in many universities around the world, and it takes 4 years to study in some universities and 5 years to study in others. The following are courses taught at the bachelor's level in chemistry engineering at a Turkish university. You can learn about the details of the subjects throughout the years of the university's specialty study where you wish to study by visiting the university's official website.

History of Chemical Engineering Specialization:

Chemical engineering was first established as a profession in the United Kingdom after the first course in chemical engineering at the University of Manchester was given in 1887 by George E. Davis in the form of twelve lectures covering various aspects of industrial chemicals practice. As a result, George E. Davis is the world's first chemical engineer.

The importance of studying the specialty of Chemical Engineering:

Chemical engineering is responsible for meeting daily needs such as clothing, food and energy. Chemical engineers innovate these production processes while remaining familiar with resource management, ensuring compliance with global health, safety and environmental protection standards
