ChEs’ Mission is to Serve, Not to Entertain
In an age of biofuels, advanced materials, and specialty chemicals, what should chemical engineers concentrate on to advance their careers? The buzzwords to chase these days are anything bio, nano, and micro. Professor Tony Pavone, who teaches chemical engineering process design at Stanford University in California, and also consults with SRI Consulting (Chem Show; New York; Booth 703), says that it is...

The economic outlook: 2008 and beyond
“This is the first time since the early 1970s there have been four strong years in a row; every piston of the economic engine was running,” says Dr. Thomas K. Swift, chief economist for the American Chemistry Council “We have just come off of four years (2003–2006) of very strong global economic growth,” says Dr. Thomas K. Swift, chief economist and managing director...

Steam Turbines Offer a Green Solution
While the Pennant ECS can be put to multiple applications, multi-bagger benefits accrue with its ability to convert both saturated and superheated steam into clean electrical energy. Typically, the ECS is used in parallel with a Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV) or Pressure Reducing Desuperheater Station (PRDS) situated downstream of the boiler. The ECS, configured in the above arrangement is able to smartly...

What to See at the Chem Show  (part 2)  
Put an end to gasket failure from insufficient load This company is displaying a new family of gaskets, as well as its Multi-Swell gasket technology, which is said to be the first self-loading general service gasket on the market. The Multi-Swell virtually eliminates gasket failure caused by insufficient load, by creating its own load when in contact with oil or water. These gaskets cut easily and conform...

Participation Takes a Global Turn at the 2007 Chem Show
Like today’s chemical process industries (CPI) themselves, the representation of exhibitors at this year’s Chem Show has taken a more global spin. According to Clay Stevens, President of show organizer IEC, 56 international exhibitors from 16 countries are on hand this week, with the strongest representations coming from Canada, Taiwan and China. Meanwhile, other exhibitors come from locations...

Why Engineers Should Care About Carbon
Almost every chemical company in America is developing a plan to reduce carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions in the coming years. It is something for which all chemical engineers need to prepare. That is one of the key messages from Russell Heinen, Vice President of SRI Consulting (Booth 703), who gives the opening address of the Financially Sound Green Engineering track of this year’s...

A Practical Spin on Fuel Switching for the CPI
With the buzz around rising fuel costs at an all-time high, a large portion of coverage in consumer and trade media, alike, has focused on alternative fuels for transportation. While it is important to consider how such activity will impact the growth of the chemical process industries (CPI), this doesn’t address the implications of, and solutions to, high fuel costs within the CPI. One way around...

Advanced Bio-refineries Pose New Challenges to Engineers
By the time the next Chem Show comes around in two years time, the advanced bio-refinery will have moved off the drawing board and become a reality. That’s the prediction of leading bio-refining specialist Greg Bohlmann, of California-based consultancy SRI Consulting (Booth 703). Bohlmann says that an advanced bio-refinery is one that will make use of as many parts of a plant or agricultural residue...

Wastewater Benefits From Plant Investment Boom
Wastewater may not be a prime source of profits, but it cannot be ignored — and it is certainly fashionable. The global market for industrial water and wastewater equipment is growing at around 20% annually, according to a recent report from market research company BCC Research (Wellesley, Mass.; www.bccresearch.com). Sales are set to exceed $4.7 billion this year, up from $3.2 billion in 2005, and...

Managing the Chemical Supply Chain in a Global Economy
As economic globalization makes the world a smaller place, U.S.-based businesses must increasingly source, produce and sell material in foreign lands. Without the right strategies for collaboration, visibility and event management, however, this can be bad news for the supply chain. The challenge is to establish a core of business processes that can keep pace with the ever-changing global environment, says...
