Chemical Engineering

Chemical Engineering is a monthly publication from Access Intelligence, designed for chemical engineers and professionals working in the chemical process industries (CPI). This includes sectors such as petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, explosives, agricultural chemicals, food production, and more. Our readers often find themselves involved in various fields that leverage chemical engineering technology. The magazine targets "technical decision-makers"—those who utilize their engineering expertise to make important technical and business choices. Typically, these individuals are chemical engineers, chemists, or mechanical engineers engaged in research, design, construction, production, or technical management. Whether they are fresh graduates or seasoned experts, they rely on Chemical Engineering for actionable insights and updates that impact the CPI. Our main goal is to serve the needs of our readers. We carefully select articles and press releases that provide valuable information and insights. This commitment to our audience has helped us build a strong reputation for credibility, ensuring that the content we publish resonates with serious readers. Chemical Engineering operates independently and does not receive funding from any professional organizations. We attract subscriptions from engineers and technical professionals in the CPI based on specific criteria related to their education and job roles, allowing us to reach key decision-makers in the industry. Our global readership, including those who receive distributed copies, exceeds 250,000 individuals, making us the leading publication in the CPI sector. Consequently, articles featured in Chemical Engineering receive unparalleled visibility and engagement.

Decrease SizeDefault sizeIncrease Size Print This single-pot reaction scheme could open the path to recycling used tires June 1, 2025 | By Scott Jenkins Recycling vehicle tires is complicated because the rubbers used (including butadiene and polyisoprene) are highly cross-linked, and because pyrolysis-based recycling of the rubbers generates environmentally hazardous compounds like benzene and dioxins. Now, researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC; www.unc.edu) have...
This MOF selectively adsorbs CO2 for biogas purification

6 days ago | chemengonline.com | Dorothy Lozowski

Biogas — produced from anaerobic digestion of organic matter — contains a mixture of gases, with methane and carbon dioxide as the predominant components. To use biogas as a fuel source, purification of the gas is typically needed to remove CO2 and other contaminants to reach high methane concentrations. Traditional separation methods are effective, but can be energy-intensive and produce chemical waste.
Direct cryo-compression of gaseous hydrogen
