Growth of chemical and allied industries is inevitable as these are deeply connected with the basic needs and desire of the society. We are convinced that chemical engineering includes masters and creates most of the tools that play a key role in realizing this concept; the chemical engineers try to find the specific and most effective ways to maximize this effort. This striving includes formulation of new targets of individual branches of chemical engineering science and practice, developing new methods for achieving them, dissemination of relevant information among specialists from NIT Rourkela and IITs and supporting young engineers in entering and understanding the profession.
Chemical Engineering is no longer confined to chemical industry. It has already moved into biotechnology, nano technology, MEMS, analytical instrumentation, process monitoring and control, evolutionary computation, CFD (computational Fluid Dynamics) etc., and with time it is emerging as a service or utility discipline to the other engineering streams. Considering the increasing demand of various upcoming interfaces of Chemical Engineering with almost all other science and engineering disciplines, the following are the focus areas of the proposed course. |
 |
| FOCUS AREAS |
- Design of advanced separation processes including the adsorption, membrane separation processes, reactive distillation, supercritical fluids and extraction by it, and surfactant induced separation. Application of these separation processes with case studies
- Modeling and Simulation and Optimization with a special mention to non-traditional optimization technique like Differential Evolution (DE)
- Advanced fluidization Engineering
- PINCH Technology
- Advanced Process Control with a special mention to model predictive control
- Nano Technology and science
- Exposure to the most celebrated simulators used in chemical process industries including ASPEN, PRO2 and FLUENT
