Chemical Engineers are often employed in a laboratory environment to improve and refine chemical manufacturing methods. Chemical Engineers implement safety procedures to limit risk when working with volatile chemicals and heavy machinery, creating and testing new tools for properly developing a medication, household product or tech device. Their role is to apply biology and chemistry concepts to a manufacturing or processing environment within the scope of safety regulations. Chemical Engineers travel to different work sites to instruct and train manufacturers, collect samples to study, update processes and troubleshoot problems at production facilities.
