Introduction
Chemical engineering is a field of academia which takes the fundamental scientific knowledge of areas related to natural phenomena including chemistry, physics and biology, and applying and industrializing such knowledge for the convenience of human civilization.
As an academic field related to the design, construction and operation of chemical reaction processes, chemical engineering provides the basic theoretical engineering principles of industrial chemistry, material engineering, textile engineering, biotechnology, food engineering and environmental engineering, while at the same time playing a leading role in their academic development. In addition, it is an academic field which conducts research into the development, design, operation and management of chemical, physical and bioprocesses which turn natural resources into the substances needed by humans in everyday life. In particular, the field of chemical engineering, which blends integrated characteristics of engineering including energy, the environment, biochemical engineering, process systems and the processing of electronic materials and polymers, plays an important role in determining the quality of living and level of cultural standards as the nation’s key industry.
