CEP: June 2005

The problems mentioned by Dr. Fthenakis in the April 2005 issue (p. 5) are critical and we have to start to deal with them immediately.

CEP: May 2005

In December 2002, scientists and engineers were elated thanks to an authorization bill, approved by Congress, that called for the doubling of the National Science Foundation (NSF) budget between the fiscal years (FY) 2002-2007...

CEP: March 2005

While hydrogen is clearly neither a magic bullet nor a short-term solution, we see no consensus as to what role hydrogen may ultimately play in future energy systems, or for how aggressively the U.S.

CEP: February 2005

The reaction to my article, "Demystifying the Hydrogen Economy"(Nov. 2004; pp. 5-6), was overwhelmingly positive, and I am grateful to the respondents who expressed kind words.

CEP: January 2005

The hydrogen economy discussion was very informative and stimulating. The pro-arguments of Dr. Hirsch and the con-arguments of Dr. Shinnar are both cogent and have merit...

Guidelines for Safe Handling of Powders and Bulk Solids

November, 2004
Powders and bulk solids, handled widely in the chemical, pharmaceutical, agriculture, smelting, and other industries present unique fire, explosion, and toxicity hazards. Indeed, substances which are practically inert in consolidated form may become quite hazardous when converted to powders and...

Guidelines for Preventing Human Error in Process Safety

August, 2004
Almost all the major accident investigations--Texas City, Piper Alpha, the Phillips 66 explosion, Feyzin, Mexico City--show human error as the principal cause, either in design, operations, maintenance, or the management of safety. This book provides practical advice that can substantially reduce...

Spray Dryers: A Guide to Performance Evaluation, 2nd Edition

August, 2004
Spray Dryers: A Guide to Performance Evaluation, Second Edition discusses the reasons for spray drying. These reasons are usually to produce a product with certain desired properties or with better efficiency than other methods. The book discusses how to plan in light of these objectives and gives...

CEP: December 2004

As you've probably heard, AIChE's recent initiatives in biotechnology, nanotechnology and sustainability are meeting with considerable success.

CEP: October 2004

In August, I highlighted the concept of the "Critical Issues Forum,"and I asked for your feedback. Here's what one member wrote, "My advice would be to quit just batting around and do it!"...

CEP: September 2004

Back in January 2002, CEP published a 16-page special on "An Evolution in Chemical Engineering,"and I asked you "Where are we headed?"Nearly three years later, I find myself pondering the same question...

CEP: August 2004

I want to thank all of the nearly 4,000 members who took the time to thoughtfully respond to CEP's engineering ethics survey.

CEP: July 2004

AIChE is pursuing a strategy that is changing the Institute's activities to assure continued relevance to chemical engineers of the future. As you all know - and as previous articles in CEP have documented (Jan.
