Welcome to the Chemical Reaction Blog – a place to react to what you've seen in or heard about the chemical industry. Getting the discussion started is often a difficult task, but as a journalist charged with helping to keep you informed about what's happening in the industry and within the chemical processing community – I am excited to take on the challenge. And I won't be alone. Some of the experts you've looked to for insight in Chemical Processing magazine have agreed to be a part of the discussion. Human nature makes us observers for the most part and participants once in a while. We hope that changes with the Chemical Reaction Blog. This is your chance to voice your opinion, to argue or agree with your peers. To question the who, what, when, where, why and how. To get answers or give advice. Or to simply vent about your day at the office. I look forward to engaging in conversation with you – blog on, my friends! Traci Purdum Senior Digital Editor, ChemicalProcessing.com
