The design and operations of processes that produce and/or utilize energy are fundamental aspects of chemical engineering but with the move towards cleaner energy sources how will the role of chemical engineers evolve? In this talk Dr Ollie Folayan will discuss the ways in which chemical engineers are offering solutions to achieving government’s net zero targets whilst ensuring that energy needs continue to be met. From the utilisation of carbon capture technologies to the progressive replacement of fossil fuels and the introduction of renewable energy sources (RES) and alternative carbon feeds.
