Chemical Engineering
From ETHW
The complete legacy of chemical engineers could never be contained in a single website. Indeed, the legacy is still being written. We can witness its progress day by day —
- in the development of new ways to bring plentiful clean water, food and medicines to people in need
- in the millions of lives improved and saved through new drug-delivery and health care options
- in the labs where researchers are exploring alternative fuel options
- in new, efficient, and inherently-safer process designs and the maximizing of raw materials
- in our safer workplaces and cleaner environment
- in the next generation of chemical engineering graduates — motivated to improve quality of life and the well-being of our communities and the planet.
