Where Prof. Dr. Thamer Jassim Mohammed, Prof. Dr. Adnan Abdel-Jabbar Abdel-Razzaq (scientific assistant), Prof. Mai Ali Muslim (branch head of the Chemical Engineering and Oil Pollution Branch), and Prof. Mohamed Abdel-Rahman Abdel-Ghani participated. Where Prof. Dr. Thamer Jassim Muhammad chaired one of the research sessions in the environmental engineering axis, as well as the representative of the Chemical Engineering Department, Prof. Dr. Adnan Abdel-Jabbar Abdel-Razzaq, as well as two sessions by Assist. Prof. Dr. Mai Ali Muslim. It is worth noting that the conference discussed many scientific topics in the field of engineering and civil engineering and their applications, the most important of which were environmental treatments and pollution reduction.

 In the presence of the Assistant President of the University of Technology for Administrative Affairs, Professor Dr. Farhad Muhammad Othman and a number of heads of scientific departments. The Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Technology organized a scientific symposium entitled Investing municipal waste in energy production and environmental preservation on Tuesday, 12/12/2023.

The symposium included scientific lectures by Engineer Montaser Hiran Muhammad from the Baghdad Municipality and Professor Louay Sadiq Al-Mukhtar from the Ministry of Environment, during which a detailed presentation was given on the management and control of waste and ways to convert it into useful energy to preserve the environment. It also touched on the classification of waste in terms of origin, physical state, and chemical nature of the waste, and the projects of the Baghdad Municipality in investing waste in the Rusafa and Al-Karkh area and converting it into energy to preserve the environment. In addition to addressing the dangers of waste and its impact on human health and society. At the conclusion of the symposium, the lecturers were awarded certificates of appreciation by the Head of the Chemical Engineering Department, Professor Dr. Khaled Ajami Sukkar, in appreciation of their distinguished efforts in delivering lectures.

Within the Chemical Engineering Department program to develop the skills of students, the Chemical Process Engineering Branch in the Chemical Engineering Department completed a field practical exercise in work suits inside the department industrial laboratories, including the experimental laboratory, in the presence of Prof. Dr. Khalid Ajmi Sukkar, Head of the Chemical Engineering Department and Prof. Dr. Asawer Abdulrasool Kwae, Head of the Chemical Process Engineering Branch, the administrative staff, and faculty members in the Scientific Branch, on Thursday, 7/12/2023. It is worth noting that the Chemical Engineering Department includes three scientific branches: the Chemical Process Engineering Branch, the Chemical Engineering and Oil Refining Branch, and the Chemical Engineering and  Oil Pollution Branch

  As part of the cultural and scientific activity for the first semester, the Graduate Follow-up Unit in the Department of Chemical Engineering held a workshop entitled Career Qualification for final year students and graduates on Sunday, 12/3/2023.

The workshop included a lecture by Mrs. Nour Sabah Sadiq Al-Marayati, Director of the Customer Service Department at Changan Company, during which she presented a set of technical and administrative skills that an engineer must possess in order to achieve success and distinction in the labor market. On the other hand, the lecture explained the importance of graduates obtaining the scientific skills that develop their academic capabilities and enable them to obtain the appropriate job and acquire the elements of success and career stability. At the conclusion of the workshop, the department appreciated the lecturer’s efforts with a certificate of thanks and appreciation in appreciation of her valuable efforts in the scientific workshop.
