In many cases non-zinc anodes outperform actual zinc anodes, depending upon the type of metal you need to protect and the nature of the water in which the metal being protected is immersed. It all has to do with the voltage of the anode when referenced against a standard.
Chemical engineers at pharmaceutical manufacturers have the same duties as those of consumer goods manufacturers, but they have additional duties as well. Their focus is on developing new drugs or products to enhance the health of humans and animals.
Chemical engineers typically do the following: 1  Conduct research to develop new and improved manufacturing processes. 2  Develop safety procedures for those working with dangerous chemicals. 3  Develop processes for separating components of liquids and gases, or for generating electrical currents, by using controlled chemical processes.
