Review Description

Over many decades, teaching and research in chemical engineering were largely directed towards the oil refining and commodity chemicals industries. However, changes in the structure of the process industries have placed an increased emphasis on the manufacture of speciality chemicals and consumer products. Such products, for both industrial and domestic use, often possess a microstructure on the scale of 1–1000 μm which is created specifically to meet the user needs. There are significant challenges to chemical engineers in developing relevant teaching and research for the processing of such products.
