Cleantech uses ‘reversable rusting’ to develop 100-hour battery
7 hours ago · Cleantech uses ‘reversable rusting’ to develop 100-hour battery. Article by Aniqah Majid. A MASSACHUSETTS energy firm has developed an iron-based battery that can store electricity for four days using a novel method called “reverse rusting”. Form Energy’s iron-air batteries can output electricity by using oxygen to convert iron metal ...

The Future of Chemical Engineering in the Era of Generative AI
Sep 28, 2023 · The necessity of coding ability in chemical engineering has been established for some time, but despite this many chemical engineers have limited coding ability. 3 Generative AI can automate the creation of small functions and portions of programs by generating chunks of code. While much of the current criticism in this area is directed towards ...
Rules of Thumb: Scale-up - Features - The Chemical Engineer
Oct 26, 2023 · Here, nt m is the dimensionless mixing time. A value of nt m = 39 arises for a typical tank having D T = 3D, and H = D T. We can now use this information to predict the new mixing time if the value of impeller speed changes during scale-up. Remember this applies to one specific design of impeller and tank geometry during turbulent mixing.
Interactive Graph Resource for Chemical Engineering Design
Feb 1, 2024 · This provides a self-check on their knowledge. Incorporate the interactive graphs within live teaching sessions: Bringing the graphs into live workshop sessions increases students’ use of the graphs and helps explain key topics. This also allows greater tie-ins to other activities and problem solving.

100 Centuries of Chemical Engineering
Jan 27, 2022 · Here we look at the organised chemical transformations that have been essential to the development of civilisation ever since, starting with the earliest cities 100 centuries ago and the technology around then. The -OH groups on silicate polymers are dehydrated by heat to give strong -O- crosslinks and a rigid waterproof structure.
Data Science and Digitalisation for Chemical Engineers
Apr 27, 2023 · Figure 1: Data science journey for each project. We use the terms “data literacy” and “data acumen” to describe two skillsets that chemical engineers may use when handling data. Data literacy is the ability to collect, manage, evaluate, and apply data in a critical manner and is essential for chemical engineers working in the digital age.
