THE DEPARTMENT
The Department of Chemical Engineering has a dynamic faculty and a well-experienced support staff having strong research interests in traditional and emerging areas of Chemical Engineering. The laboratories are equipped with several state-of-the-art facilities being used for the research and consultancy activities of the department. In addition, the department provides excellent computational facilities to the faculty and the students at all levels. Over the years, the department has fostered a close link with the chemical and allied industries leading to significant resource generation.
ACADEMIC PROGRAMMES
The department offers academic programmes at three levels leading to B.Tech, M.Tech. and Ph.D degrees. A dual degree programme, leading to a B.Tech in Chemical Engineering coupled with an M.Tech. in Chemical Engineering (with specialization in Process Systems Design and Engineering) was instituted in the recent past in 1996. A special feature of our 4-semester M.Tech. programme is that it provides courses and projects leading to an intensive study in specialised areas. Presently more than 40 students are pursuing M.Tech. programmes and over 70 research scholars are working towards their doctoral degrees in various areas of Chemical Engineering.
R & D ACTIVITIES
The current research areas are as follows:
(i) Process Control, Process Simulation, Optimization, Computer Aided Design, Process Integration, Energy Conservation and Optimal Resource Management, Artificial Intelligence, Mathematical Modelling.
(ii) Biochemical Engineering and Food Process Engineering, Metabolic Engineering, Applied Enzymology, Bioseparations, Drug Discovery, Vermiculture, Waste Management.
(iii) Interface Engineering and Science, Colloids, Sol-gels, Emulsions, Foams, Nanoparticles, Microstructural Engineering, Aerosols, Ceramic Materials, Microscopy.
