The head of the Chemical Engineering Department expressed his deep thanks to the presidency of Future University for its serious cooperation in developing the joint scientific research movement. For his part, the President of Future University stressed the university’s keenness for fruitful joint cooperation that achieves community service and the development of joint curricula through scientific twinning and the combined efforts of everyone for the success of the educational process

The Department of Chemical Engineering welcomes first-year students for the academic year 2023-2024

As part of the University of Technology preparations to welcome new students, the Chemical Engineering Department welcomes first-year students in all scientific branches in the presence of Prof. Dr. Khalid Ajmi Sukkar, Head of the Chemical Engineering Department. During the reception, the head of the department stressed the importance of strengthening the theoretical and practical aspects of students in accordance with the vision of the University of Technology, which attaches great importance to the applied aspect. It was also stressed the need for all faculty members and administrative staff to cooperate in order to implement the Bologna process with all flexibility and smoothness in order to improve the educational process. On the other hand, the aides to the head of the department, as well as the heads of the scientific branches, reviewed the specifics of each scientific branch within the department in terms of the scientific aspect and its role in the industry or field of work. On a related level, Lect. Dr. Qusay Jaafar Rashid gave an introductory lecture about the Department of Chemical Engineering, highlighting the role of the chemical engineer in building the various chemical and petroleum industries in order to build a scientific economy based on the knowledge economy. On a related level, Asst. Prof. Dr. Ali Abdulrahman Nsaif explained in his lecture to the students the most important opportunities available in the industrial sector for the chemical engineer and the role of the chemical engineer in developing the industry and serving society.

The Department of Chemical Engineering participates in the first conference of the Industrial Advisory Council.

The Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Technology participated in the first conference of the Industrial Advisory Council in Iraqi Universities, which was held under the patronage of His Excellency the Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research, Dr. Naeem Al-Aboudi, on Wednesday, 11/1/2023, where Prof. Dr. Khaled Ajami Sukkar, Head of the Chemical Engineering Department, is part of the University of Technology delegation participating in the conference. This conference is held in order to build a strong and sustainable partnership between governmental and academic institutions, the private sector and professional unions, to achieve the vision of the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research in supporting the private sector, developing skills, and reducing... Unemployment rates among graduates. It is worth noting that the University of Technology and the Department of Chemical Engineering have established large scientific partnerships with the productive and industrial sectors to enhance the work of industrial advisory councils in order to provide job opportunities for graduates.

The Department of Chemical Engineering discusses a master’s thesis on (preparation and characterization of some new heterocyclic compounds containing an oxazolidine ring as inhibitors of corrosion of mild steel in acidic solutions)

The Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Technology discussed the master’s thesis titled.

Synthesis and Characterization of New Heterocyclic Compounds Containing Oxazolidine Ring as Corrosion Inhibitors for Mild Steel in Acidic Solution

Thursday, 11/2/2023

The student Zeina Ibrahim Jassim’s thesis aimed to synthesize and distinguish heterocyclic organic compounds that possess a thion ring, one of the oxazoladine derivatives, through the synthesis of the compound known as Z1. Later, the compound was synthesized.

4 amino-benzoic hydrazide 5(4-amino phenyl) 1,3,4 oxadiazole – 2thiol

Known as Z2. Then, the known inhibitors (DMOT, DHOT) are prepared, and then the inhibitors that have been synthesized are diagnosed using modern techniques such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, a melting point device for the compounds. In addition to evaluating the efficiency of the inhibitors that were synthesized on a model of mild steel to calculate corrosion resistance in one molar HCl acidic medium using the weight loss method. Conditions were used to choose the lowest corrosion rate from the results of the weight loss data. The results showed that the corrosion rate in the absence of the inhibitor increases with increasing temperature, and the change in the corrosion rate with temperature is based on the Arrhenius equation and the activation energy of the reaction was activated. Where work was obtained that shows the extent of the corrosion rate and its relationship to different temperatures and varying concentrations of inhibitors.

The discussion committee consisted of Prof. Dr. Jamal Mana Ali as Chairman, with the membership of Assistant Prof. Dr. Sarmad Talib Najm from Al-Nahrain University and Assistant Prof. Bashir Ahmed Abdel Hussein

Under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Khaled Hamid Rashid and Prof. Dr. Khaleda Farhan Al-Azzawi.
