Abstract

"We propose to discuss in this thesis the organization of the N. K. Fairbank Company, particularly with reference to the duties of the Chemical Division, Operating Department in this organization. From a broad viewpoint, we believe that the particular organization by with the N. K. Fairbank Company secures application of its chemical ability to manufacturing operations as well as to special problems, is characteristic of a widespread movement taking place for recognition of the chemical engineer in industry. This is particularly true in those industries where manufacturing operations are based primarily upon practical applications of chemical principles" – Abstract, p. [1].
