Chemical
engineering as a branch of engineering applies physical, chemical and life
sciences with applied mathematics and economics to design large-scale processes
for converting raw materials into useful forms and products. Advancement in
chemical engineering helps in optimizing the industrial outputs.
Chemical
Engineering Journal is an open access international peer reviewed publication
that publishes recent advances on these topics. Seven research articles and a
review article have been published in volume 6 issue 2 of the journal. Ahamed
et al. in their research
article described the synthesis of aminoguanidyl-chitosan imprinted
polymers (AGCIPs) for the recovery of precious metals like gold and silver from
aqueous solution.
The author found
that AGCIPs are effective in absorbing gold and silver from the solutions and
also the polymer can be regenerated for reusing up to five times without change
in the adsorption capacity.
