IChemE Celebrates 100 Years

Jan. 7, 2022
2022 marks the centenary of the Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE).

2022 marks the centenary of the Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE) with the milestone providing a timely opportunity to celebrate the profession, the achievements of chemical engineers over the last 100 years and a future of success, according to the organization. From the Institution’s inaugural meeting held at the Hotel Cecil in London on May 2, 1922 to the “vibrant membership body of over 30,000 members across the globe today,” IChemE says it has been advancing chemical engineering’s contribution for 100 years.

A program of activities throughout the year will honor the work of chemical engineers, past and present, and will present the innovations being developed to meet the many challenges of the future. This evolution of the chemical engineering profession is why the commemorations have been titled, “ChemEng Evolution.” A different theme will be examined each month, exploring the impact that chemical engineering has on modern lives. The themes have been selected to highlight and celebrate the enormous contribution that chemical engineering has made to society over the last century.
