MaziOmenuko:That is a good 1,seems we need more technologist that engr in naija,i dnt know why a micro crude oil refinery is still a rocket science in naija? |

billyG: It's not rocket science, designing one is not an issue, final year students of chemical engr, mechanical engr and elect engr can do the design of the relative components. The issue here is the economics of the process which is one very important thing chemical engr put into consideration while designing. During fabrication u will need heavy metals; steel, copper, aluminium for the various parts, we have no metal companies here so u will have to import. Running the refinery requires 24hr steady power as a refinery is a continuous process reactor and not a batch process reactor. So you have to fit in a power plant close to it to generate the power needs. Put those and other logistics issues into perspective you will realise why an investor will think twice before funding a project as big as a refinery here in the country. 6 Likes |

madgoat: Industrial chemistry proffers more opportunities than chemical engineering in terms of employment. As long as production/manufacturing is involved, an industrial chemist is needed. The good part is that an industrial chemist can study chemical engineering as a postgraduate program, but a chemical engineer is restricted when it comes to opportunities in industrial chemistry. 1 Like |

Just Like asking the difference between a Medical Doctor and a Medical Engineer. Industrial Chemistry is a branch of Chemistry which deals with physico-chemical processes that involves transformation of raw materials (Organic and Inorganic Chemicals as the case may be) into a finished product for direct and indirect human benefits. Chemical Engineering is a branch of engineering that are more involved in a large scale chemical processing, they combined the first hand application of the basis of industrial Chemistry and design a means of production, transformation, transportation and proper application of materials and energy. While Industrial Chemist can function at all level of manufacturing stage, the Chemical Engineers are more suited to a large scale production. At a Large scale level, there is no one without another. 1 Like |
