Book excerpt: The author was previously a practicing engineer. Being very vague about the chemical engineering industry during his student life urged him to improve the situation. Wouldn't it be nice if somebody can tell and share what they can expect from the industry? It will be some sort of a chemical engineering informal education for the students and other junior engineers. That is why the author progressively and continuously shares some of his experiences in this book. The author sincerely hopes it can provide at least some useful information for fellow young chemical engineers and chemical engineering students. He also believes it's a good thing if other professional and practicing engineers out there can do the same for others to learn. It will be a great contribution. The book contains the author's experience sharing from his research in university, a bit of oil and gas exposure as well as oil and fats industry. The book tagline is "Learn something about chemical engineering that is not in your textbook."Reviews: "I read Zaki's writings from 2008, it has been 10 years that I am following his interesting web based publications. There is always something to learn from his writings and more importantly those are not in standard text books. Zaki is one of the rare chemical engineering professionals who understand the value of dissemination of knowledge to public as well as young chemical professionals. Generally in traditional engineering fields such as chemical and process engineering, knowledge is being transferred one-to-one which is quite slow and inefficient. However, effort of Zaki and such knowledge sharing professionals will change the eco-system in chemical engineering for good!" - Dr. Thushara Subasinghe, University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka"Ramblings of A Chemical Engineer! The title says it all. It is a compilation of wonderful stories of life as a student and chemical engineer. Zaki has managed to shine a light on chemical engineering world by sharing good stories, wonderful experiences, topical issues and much more. And all this in an entertaining way! Thank you Zaki, for putting your experiences 'in word' so many of us can learn, get inspired, and be motivated by your pen!"- Dr. Aziatul Niza Sadikin, School of Chemical & Energy Engineering, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia "Ramblings of A Chemical Engineer is a good book which features the real life experience sharing by Zaki & indeed beneficial to students, young engineer or academics who have not had opportunities to be in the chemical process or related industries. Thumbs up to the author!"- Dr. Siti Shawalliah Idris, Universiti Teknologi MARA"I enjoyed this book very much and would recommend it to any chemical engineering student, junior chemical engineer or just chemical engineering enthusiast regardless of age."- Tarig Hussein, CTP Trainee in an American multinational engineering, procurement, construction and installation company based in Europe.About the Author: Zaki Yamani B. Zakaria has been fond to be a chemical engineer since he was 14 and in 1999 he earned his Chemical Engineering bachelor degree. He has been in various industries such as oil and gas as well as oil and fats. He realized that there was lack of information or sharing about real chemical engineering career, experiences and exposure from practicing engineer; and that was the reason he started Chemical Engineering World blog in 2006, which received overwhelming responses from chemical engineering students and junior engineers around the globe. In 2008, he started Chemical Engineering Facebook Page which managed to attract 29k followers. His personal mission is to help build interest, excitement and enhance knowledge within the chemical engineering community in line with his favourite tagline, "Learn something about chemical engineering that is not in your textbook."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of chemical engineering is undergoing a global “renaissance,” with new processes, equipment, and sources changing literally every day. It is a dynamic, important area of study and the basis for some of the most lucrative and integral fields of science. Introduction to Chemical Engineering offers a comprehensive overview of the concept, principles and applications of chemical engineering. It explains the distinct chemical engineering knowledge which gave rise to a general-purpose technology and broadest engineering field. The book serves as a conduit between college education and the real-world chemical engineering practice. It answers many questions students and young engineers often ask which include: How is what I studied in the classroom being applied in the industrial setting? What steps do I need to take to become a professional chemical engineer? What are the career diversities in chemical engineering and the engineering knowledge required? How is chemical engineering design done in real-world? What are the chemical engineering computer tools and their applications? What are the prospects, present and future challenges of chemical engineering? And so on. It also provides the information new chemical engineering hires would need to excel and cross the critical novice engineer stage of their career. It is expected that this book will enhance students understanding and performance in the field and the development of the profession worldwide. Whether a new-hire engineer or a veteran in the field, this is a must—have volume for any chemical engineer’s library.

In this not-so-original book, The Best Ever Book of Chemical Engineer Jokes; Lots and Lots of Jokes Specially Repurposed for You-Know-Who, Mark Young takes a whole lot of tired, worn out jokes and makes them funny again. The Best Ever Book of Chemical Engineer Jokes is so unoriginal, it's original. And, if you don't burst out laughing from at least one Chemical Engineer joke in this book, there's something wrong with you. This book has so many Chemical Engineer jokes, you won't know where to start. For example: Why do Chemical Engineers wear slip-on shoes? You need an IQ of at least 4 to tie a shoelace. *** An evil genie captured a Chemical Engineer and her two friends and banished them to the desert for a week. The genie allowed each person to bring one thing. The first friend brought a canteen so he wouldn't die of thirst. The second friend brought an umbrella to keep the sun off. The Chemical Engineer brought a car door, because if it got too hot she could just roll down the window! *** Did you hear about the Chemical Engineer who wore two jackets when she painted the house? The instructions on the can said: "Put on two coats." *** Why do Chemical Engineers laugh three times when they hear a joke? Once when it is told, once when it is explained to them, and once when they understand it. ***
