Chem.Info

Chem.Info is the technology resource for processing professionals. The e-newsletter series, website and other integrated media provide critical news, product information, trend analysis, case studies and application articles, in addition to best-practice features, addressing contemporary need-to-know issues with today's processing technology. While some industries discuss their markets becoming more global in nature, the process engineer sees this dynamic at work every day. This makes the timeliness of communication regarding regulatory issues, environmental concerns, new product updates, breaking news, and company developments absolutely essential. Process engineers face many of the same challenges as their counterparts throughout manufacturing, including improving production rates, driving efficiency, and keeping energy and operational costs down, all while maintaining product quality. The biggest difference is the inherently more dangerous environment in which many must perform these functions, making safety a focal point in every aspect of production. On the plant floor, solutions to lowering equipment down-time, improving line change-over rates, and avoiding disastrous quality control situations like recalls, spills, or explosions all translate to a safer, more profitable enterprise.
