The Branch of Engineering that is concerned with the design, construction and operation of machine and plants performing chemical reactions is known as Chemical Engineering. The most important role of a Chemical Engineer is to help produce a significant extent of chemicals in a safe and economic way by proper design of chemical reactors to meet the demand of the modern society. What distinguishes chemical engineers from their counterparts in other engineering disciplines is the fact that they are required to apply knowledge of chemistry in addition to the knowledge of other engineering sciences. Thus because of their perceived superiority in scientific and technical know how, they are sometimes regarded as \u201cUniversal Engineers\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Department of Chemical Engineering consists of highly qualified and goal-oriented team of faculty members from renowned institute like IIT-Kharagpur, Jadavpur University, NIT-Durgapur, University College of Science & Technology (CU) and with a judicious mix of youth and experience. The Department is now headed by Dr. P. Sinha who obtained his M.Tech & Ph.D from CU. His area of research is \u201cBiochemical process modelling simulation and optimization\u201d. He is corporate member of IEI and Associate member of IICE. Including him the departmental faculty members are engaged with dedicated research. The major fields are (i) Non-CFC technology (ii) Membrane separation technique (iii) Utilizing waste product in making valuable products (iv) Waste water treatment (v) Inversed fluidization technique etc.

The senior faculty members of the NIT Durgapur, Chemical Engineering Department are associated with this department as mentor as well as Adjunct Professors. Projects Works and Research & Development works are going on jointly with them. Faculty members of this department are regularly invited at NIT Durgapur as External Examiner for UG & PG students and also as speaker in different events. Students of this department are pursuing Post Graduate Courses and Research work leading to Ph.D. Involving the students, the department also organises Seminar \/ Workshops in a regular basis.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
