The Department of Chemical Engineering holds an introductory seminar for students in the classes ending the academic year 2022/2023.

Under the supervision of the Head of the Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Technology, Professor Dr. Jamal Mana Al-Rubaie, the Qualification, Employment, and Follow-up Unit in the Chemical Engineering Department, in cooperation with the University Qualification, Employment, and Follow-up Division, held an introductory seminar for students in the classes ending the academic year 2022/2023, on Monday, 10/9/2023. The symposium included a detailed presentation to introduce the objectives, activities, and mechanisms of employment and qualifying them before graduation by activating communication with the labor market and creating the largest number of job opportunities for graduates of the department, whether at the level of the government sector or private sector companies.

 

The Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Technology organized a scientific lecture entitled (The role of postgraduate students in Research and postgraduate studies). The lecture was delivered by Prof. Dr. Muthanna Al-Dahan from the Missouri University of Science and Technology in the United States of America on Tuesday, 10/10/2023.

The lecture included a detailed presentation on the importance of the role of postgraduate students in scientific research, the nature of international standards adopted in scientific research in the United States of America and other international universities, and the extent of their contribution to developing the capabilities of postgraduate students in the field of completing scientific research and publishing. In addition to explaining the mechanisms of cooperation between international companies and universities, which helps in strengthening the role of universities in various work sectors and obtaining multiple sources of funding, which contributes to the development of universities through concluding contracts between universities and international companies. In this regard, the Head of the Chemical Engineering Department, Prof. Dr. Jamal Manee Al-Rubaie, confirmed that organizing such a lecture is of particular importance because it contributes to understanding the nature of the role of postgraduate students in the field of scientific research in American universities and enhances the development of the capabilities of postgraduate students in Iraqi universities.

 

The Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Technology discussed the doctoral thesis.

Organic Solvent Separation from Refinery Wastewater by Pervaporation Process: Experimental, Thermodynamics, Modeling, and Simulation Study

On Thursday, September 21, 2023, the student Salam Hussein Rashid’s thesis aimed to treat water present in refinery waste, where an advanced polydimethylsiloxane membrane (PDMSTM4060) was used to separate soluble benzene (C6H6) and soluble toluene (C7H8) from an aqueous solution. Through the pervaporation process.

A mathematical model of hydrophobic membranes was developed to elucidate the mechanism of transport of organic solvents and water across these membranes and to be able to predict membrane performance under different conditions. The predicted results were validated by experimental data, and in order to predict how non-ideal VOCs and water systems would behave in the PDMS membrane, a UNIQUAC model based on the UNIQUAC model and a conventional driving force model was used to simulate the transport of VOCs and water across the PDMSTM4060 membrane.

The discussion committee consisted of Prof. Dr. Adnan Abdel-Jabbar Abdel-Razzaq as Chairman, and Prof. Dr. Khaled Murshid Awaid and Prof. Dr. Khaled Turki Rashid and Assist Prof. Dr.  Riad Sadiq Muhammad Saleh and Assist Prof. Dr. Jinan Abdul Karim Abdul Razzaq, under the supervision of Assist Prof. Dr.   Salah Salman Ibrahim and consulting with Professor Dr. Qusay Fadel Abdel Hamid. In addition to the scientific evaluation of the thesis by Prof. Dr. Saleh Abdel-Jabbar Saleh from Al-Qadisiyah University and Prof. Dr. Ahmed Abdel-Muhammad from the University of Baghdad. And linguistically by Assist Prof. Dr.   Alaa Abdel Hadi from the University of Technology. The thesis was accepted with a grade of (excellence).
