Chemical engineering is one of the most complex fields of engineering with many specialisations from water treatment, to the food and beverage industry. Due to the complexity of the field, it is critical that the modern chemical engineer remains up to date with the latest developments and advances in their area of expertise. In this article, we’ll offer up 5 great conferences across a few of the chemical engineering sectors that you should seriously consider attending.

Flammable gases, including natural gases like methane, pure substances such as hydrogen, and vapors from volatile liquids like acetone, require careful handling. Understanding their working limits is crucial for safety. Always consult Safety Data Sheets for information on risks associated with these substances. This article covers the properties of various flammable gases: Ammonia, Acetylene, Butane, Carbon Monoxide, Hydrogen, Methane, Propane, Ethane, Ethylene, Silane, and Chlorine Trifluoride.  

The Mechanical Engineering discipline is the most broadly defined engineering discipline and comprises two major areas of expertise: mechanical systems and thermal systems. There are many overlaps between it and other major engineering disciplines such as aeronautical, civil, petroleum, electrical and metallurgical.

If you’re looking to further enhance your profession as an environmental engineer in Canada, getting a Master’s in Environmental Engineering is a great way to go. This program will further expand your knowledge and increase your employability.

The first step in many engineers’ careers is an engineering internship. Some companies and universities call internships “co-ops”. Companies offer interns an opportunity to gain real-world engineering experience while they are still students and may offer full-time employment upon graduation. As a student, it can be difficult to get your first engineering internship because you don’t have much experience. You need to find other ways to stand out. Luckily, this article will give you some tips and tricks that will help you get a leg up on your competition.

The COVID-19 crisis has hit hard enough and continues to affect the global container shipping market. The current economic situation does not give much hope for a short-term recovery of this market. Demand for container shipments has fallen sharply, especially as China closed much of its plants in February 2020. The volume of production or cargo to be exported to other countries plummeted. The situation was exacerbated by a number of restrictions and requirements in almost every industry and in the world's ports.

One of the biggest issues facing recent university graduates today is the fact that you need experience to get experience. In other words, how do you get the experience required to land your first job when you do not have any working experience in the first place? For many students, internships are one way to navigate past this problem, as they allow inexperienced students to gain work experience related to their future careers.
