1 Not All Engineers Drive Trains Name, Chemical Engineer

2 How many of you like science and math? You could be a scientist or an engineer when you grow up.

3 I design highways I design bridges and roads I design schools I supervise construction of the ice cream factory Who Am I? I am a Civil Engineer

4 I design car engines I design the tanks used by the army I design robots I design the conveyor belts in ice cream factories Who Am I? I am a Mechanical Engineer

5 I design the circuit boards in your Nintendo I design the wiring systems to deliver electricity to this classroom I design the power system for all the big refrigerators used in the ice cream plant Who Am I? I am an Electrical Engineer

6 I design plants that make plastic used in milk bottles I help make all the gasoline for your car I make the medicines used to treat your colds I design the ice cream making process Who Am I? I am a Chemical Engineer

7 I design airplanes I design the missiles and rockets I design the space shuttle I eat ice cream Who Am I? I am an Aerospace Engineer

8 What do Chemical Engineers Do? Chemical Enginers solve these kinds of problems: – How can make more gasoline? – How can we reduce pollution? – How do I design an artificial kidney? – How do make paint? – How do I make medicine? – How make plastics from corn? – How do we make ice cream?

9 Chemical Engineers Scale Up chemical processes From the laboratory, to the plant

10 Examples of Chemical Engineering

11 How do we make ice cream?

12 What do we need to make ice cream? 9,200 pounds of ice cream or 1,100 gallons of ice cream

13 How much does it cost to make 9,200 pounds of ice cream?

14 How do we use math to make a gallon of ice cream? 66 X $1.70 = $111.72

15 How do we use math to make a gallon of ice cream? $111.72 + $125.65 + $513.37 + $2,416.47 + $1,008.45 + 5.01 $4,180.68

16 Ice cream tastes good. But is it good for you?

17 Ice Cream Manufacturing Flow Sheet

18 Can You Read an Engineering Drawing? How many pumps are required?

19 Can You Read an Engineering Drawing? What temperature is the ice cream when it is put in cartons?

20 Can You Read an Engineering Drawing? Why can’t we pump the ice cream into cartons?

21 Why did I become an Engineer? Fourth grade teachers — Miss Todd – arithmetic — Mrs. Van Horn – science Mom and Dad — “The Boy Scientist” — “Our Friend the Atom” — Chemistry set

22 Why did I become an Engineer? I liked: math (calculating stuff) science (knowing why stuff works) taking things apart making things reading and writing Mostly, I like people!

23 What have I done as a Chemical Engineer? Made cancer medicines Developed pollution control systems Made plastics Built chemical plants – Cement plant – burned waste as fuel – Carbon nanotube production plant – Plastics plant Designed a process to make plastics from corn Taught college (part time) Published over 150 papers and presentations

24 Education High school – Math – 4 years – English – 4 years – Science -3 years – History – 3 years – Computers – 1 year – Spanish – 2 years – Speech – 1 year – Typing – 1 year (called keyboarding today) College – Chemical Engineering – Engineering Management
