Many of us are familiar with lab safety and the precautions we take when doing simple experiments in school laboratories. But how does this safety look different on a larger scale and how do we avoid the potential danger of large amounts of chemicals? On this episode of Let’s Talk Chemistry, hosts Yeongseo Son and Olivia Lambertson talk about their interview with Dr. Syeda Sultana Razia, a Professor of the Department of Chemical Engineering, at Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET) and has served as the Head of the department for two terms. She also has served as the Member of the Scientific Advisory Board, of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), The Hague, Netherlands for two terms and has collaborations with Mary Kay O’Connor Process Safety Centre, Texas A&M University System. We talk about chemical security threats and how to address them, the importance of chemical safety and risk prevention, and new technology to create products with safer materials. We hope you enjoy it! If you would like to know more about Dr. Syeda Sultana Razia, you can check out her research or reach her by email at [email protected].
