Exploring Chemical Engineering: A Persuasive Dialogue
Chemical Engineering: A Persuasive Dialogue
Summary:
Professor: So, you're considering Chemical Engineering?
Student: I’m not sure. Isn’t it responsible for a lot of pollution?
Professor: Do you believe the industry is the primary pollution source?
Student: Obviously.
Professor: Have you conducted any research on this?
Student: No need; it’s common knowledge.
Professor: My research suggests otherwise. Can we define what you mean by pollution?
Student: Bad odors, contaminated water, people getting sick.
Article:
Professor: So, you're interested in studying Chemical Engineering?
Student: I’m not sure. All the pollution concerns me.
Professor: You think the industry is the main polluter then?
Student: Obviously.
Professor: Have you researched this?
Student: No need to; everyone knows it.
Professor: Really? My findings suggest differently. What exactly do you mean by pollution?
Student: Odors, poisoned streams, people falling ill.
Professor: Do you believe the chemical industry is solely to blame?
Student: Yes.
Professor: What about emissions from your boiler, car, or power stations providing your electricity?
Student: Yeah, whatever.
Professor: It seems you're dismissing alternative viewpoints. Are you truly interested in this field?
Student: What do you mean, you don’t want me here?
Professor: Precisely.
Student: Okay, convince me that those running chemical plants aren’t causing air pollution.
Professor: I didn’t say there’s no pollution. However, it’s less than before and significantly less than power stations. Companies must adhere to strict regulations and report emissions.
Student: Sounds convenient.
Professor: Government inspectors make surprise visits to verify compliance. Companies face fines for non-compliance. They are also set targets to reduce emissions every five years.
Student: That seems tough.
Professor: It pushes companies to innovate and find practical uses for waste gases, benefiting the environment.
Student: That does sound promising.
Professor: Technology continually advances. While pollution can’t be entirely eliminated, emissions decrease over time.
Student: Why can’t emissions be zeroed?
Professor: It’s the law of diminishing returns. Initially, emissions reduction is low-cost, but further reductions become exponentially expensive.
Student: I see. So, is Chemical Engineering a good career path?
Professor: It depends. Are you skilled in problem-solving and teamwork?
Student: I think so.
Professor: You should also consider a future in management.
Student: Why management?
Professor: The field evolves rapidly. Within a decade, knowledge becomes outdated. New graduates will have current knowledge. Many chemical engineers transition to management after gaining experience.
Student: Management could be a rewarding path, right?
Professor: Absolutely. Are you interested in learning more?
Student: Definitely, thanks for the insights.
