INTRODUCTION
Chemical Engineering Design is the most
creative of chemical engineering activities, with
many opportunities to invent imaginative new
products or processes. It is also the essence of
chemical engineering, differentiating a chemical
engineer from a chemist or a technologist. The
creation of product and process designs are
rarely straightforward and routine; rather they
involve innovative approaches that lead to more
profitable products and processes that are
environmentally sound and operationally safe.
Courses on chemical Engineering Design are
required for evidence of major design
experience by ABET. In fact, it satisfies
Program Outcome c (ability to design system,
component or process to meet desired needs)
of ABET a-k Program Outcomes.
