DEPARTMENT OF CHEMICAL AND BIOCHEMICAL ENGINEERING

Engineering Science Building, Tel: 519- 661-2131

The Department of Chemical and Biochemical Engineering offers courses in chemical engineering, biochemical engineering, and environmental engineering. Students may choose the Chemical Option or the Environmental and Biochemical Engineering Option after completion of second year. The Environmental and Biochemical program includes courses in air and water pollution, hazardous and solid waste treatment by biological and chemical methods, design of chemical and biochemical processes to minimize pollution at the source and development of new biodegradable and/or recyclable materials. Biochemical engineering courses deal with the application of basic biological sciences to the design of large scale bioprocesses for the production of high value medicinal products, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, biomedical, genetic engineering products, and health care products. Chemical engineering courses deal with the application of physical sciences, reaction kinetics, process control, heat and mass transfer and fluid dynamics, to the design of chemical processes to produce commercial chemicals (plastics, petrochemicals, agrochemicals, gaseous and liquid fuels, pulp and paper products, mining products, and environmentally friendly consumer products). Graduates from both Chemical and Environmental and Biochemical Options receive training in fundamental principles of Chemical Engineering. This is an accredited program in Chemical and Biochemical Engineering.
