CHEMICAL ENGINEER
Result focused chemical engineer that has demonstrated a track record of achieving goals in a team environment.
Technical Equipment: Heat exchangers (transfers heat from one substance to another), Distillation Column (Separates a
mixture into unique liquids), Thin Film Evaporator (concentrates liquids), continuous filtration (separates solids from
liquids), LLE (liquid-liquid- extraction) separates water and an organic liquid, Gas Chromatography (vaporizes a liquid
and determines the substance)and HPLC(high performance liquid chromatography) in analytical lab.
Coursework in Major: Heat Transfer, Process Control, Senior Design(ethanol production using HYSYS and
ASPEN),Materials of Chemical Engineering, Fluids and Energy transfer lab, Separations and Mass Transfer lab, Process
Economics, Kinetic and Reactor Design

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCEIndustrial Nanotech, Inc. Naples, FL
2012- 2013 Director of Technology
Hired to take a leadership role in managing a department at Industrial Nanotech as an engineer. Industrial Nanotech is a
global leader in nanotechnology that large companies turn to buy insulation on the micron scale. My projects were:
Designed a spray system that would be installed in a factory and take our product from a batch process to a
continuous process. This system would be installed by a major manufacturer.
Drew chemistry mechanism for the chemical reactions that would occur when our product was applied to a
manufacturer’s line
PETER GRANT PAGE 2
Created a method to filter the product (making it new) from the excess of the application on a
manufacturer’s line
Troubleshooter the spray had system
Designed a system that allowed the personnel to know when the spray heads were malfunctioning and how
to correct the problem
Designed sketches of the spray system that could be implemented
Postulated on ways to keep our chemical at the correct temperature in the manufacture’s factory
Quality Control. Tested our product for prospective customers that wanted to buy our product. Tested our product by
testing the difference in temperature after applying it to a substance that the company would use.
applied our coatings to samples supplied by a company to demonstrate the performance of our product
Recorded information on spread sheets that display a description of the performance of each substance
tested for other companies
Made samples of our product applied to materials
Tested our chemical to determine if there was a change in temperature when our product applied
Ordered Product. Ordered modified versions of our products and tested it to determine how well it would
perform
Meetings with Scientists Conducted meeting with other scientist and engineers that wanted to sell their product to
our company.
