Do chemical engineers work with electricity?
 Chemical engineers also work in a variety
of manufacturing industries other than
chemical manufacturing, such as those
producing energy, electronics, food,
clothing, and paper.
 Chemical engineers apply principles of
physics, mathematics, mechanical and
electrical engineering, as well as chemistry.
How do chemical engineers use energy?
 Chemical engineers are involved
with developing technologies to convert
renewable biomaterials into electricity and
transportation fuels.
 Corn and sugar are now widely used to
produce ethanol, a gasoline substitute
The law of conservation of energy states
that energy can neither be created nor
destroyed - only converted from one form of
energy to another.
Example:
 The chemical energy in coal is converted
into electrical energy at a power plant.
 The chemical energy in a battery can also
supply electrical power by means of
electrolysis.
