Your Instructor
Hi there, I'm Emmanuel Ortega, aka Chemical Engineering Guy...
I've been in the Chemical Industry for about 5 years. I love applying all my knowledge learned in University to the Daily Engineering Life. From working in a Petrochemical Plant as a Process Plant Designer to working with textile material from Polyester Yarns; I could teach you a lot of how it is important to learn the Engineering subjects!
My Expertise:
- Simulation and Optimization of Chemical Processes
- Chemical Process Design
- Plant Design & Operation
- Heat Transfer Operations and Equipment Design
- Separation Technologies
- Automotive & Industrial Polyester Yarn Technologies
- Online Tutoring, Online Education Management
Right now I'm preparing online material for Engineers all over the world. I have a dream in which online education will break all barriers and let Engineers all over the world learn easier and faster! Please join me in my quest!
The Courses I design are entirely dynamic. You will see theory and then apply it ASAP to a real life problem! I even use the books you are using right now in your engineering courses...
I'll see you in class!
