Overview

The Food and Water industry is going through a significant transition to respond to the ever changing requirements of the consumers whilst developing a sustainable food-water-energy matrix and chemical engineers play a lead role in this transition.

Achieving the sustainable and equitable distribution of food and water resources worldwide will require broad social consensus and government support. Chemical engineers will play a major role in the realisation of key solutions and have an opportunity to be involved in a policy shift to reassess our food and water systems for a resilient future.
