The Department of Chemical Engineering, King Khalid University, hosted a symposium on 7/112017 under the supervision of Dr. Atef El Jery, Coordinator of Seminars and Field Visits, Eng. Ismail Al-Ahmadi, Director of Al-Jazeera Paints Academy, a brilliant cadre and a graduate of the Department of Chemical Engineering, as part of the joint cooperation between the Faculty of Engineering, Government Institutions and the private sector in the Kingdom. Engineer Ismail Al-Ahmari presented a scientific symposium on the technology of paints and innovations. The company is a leading company in the field of research and development, which is comparable to the world's leading research centers, in terms of technology and testing equipment, measurement and quality control, and includes the latest advanced devices in the tests of paints; Which is the first of its kind in the Middle East, and conducts tests, researches and tests on the field; where samples of paints are exposed to various conditions and weather conditions and For the long life of the product; its durability, due to the different weather conditions it is exposed to. The production lines in Al-Jazeera Paints are high quality and its factory is the only manufacturer of environmentally safe water paints in the Middle East. And North Africa, which operates with state of the art manufacturing technology. The attendees listened to an explanation about Al Jazeera's first paint academy in the Middle East and its role in various fields of research, training and social activities, as well as its activities and achievements, including its seminars and training sessions focused on the company`s high quality creative products, And its latest technology and innovative solutions of environmentally responsible paints for sustainable green buildings, fire resistance, microbial resistance, resistance to writing and painting on walls, anti-carb, for roads, floors, traffic safety, etc., Courses in environmentally responsible paints and their applications to many government agencies, bodies and associations. Eng. Ismail pointed out that the island strives for the slogan "quality" and is considered a basic standard that is keen to apply in its products to achieve the physical and health benefits of the consumer, and considers this standard one of the most important ways to enhance mutual trust relationship with its customers in the Saudi market and foreign markets. Finally, the Department of Chemical Engineering expressed its thanks and gratitude to Engineer Ismail Al-Ahmari for useful and valuable information that enhances the scientific method and the pride of the contribution of outstanding engineers and graduates of the Department of Chemical Engineering in contributing to linking the student of chemical engineering to the national industries in the country, qualified engineers help to advance and develop the country and the renaissance of the homeland and contribute to the movement of its growth.

A group of students from the Department of Chemical Engineering visited the Abha wastewater purification and treatment station on Tuesday, 14/11/2017. Within the framework of the program, field visits are conducted for each semester under the supervision of Dr. Atef El Jery and Dr. Chandrakant Sarkar. The purpose of this visit is to identify the existing sewage systems as well as the stages of wastewater treatment and the components of treatment station. The wastewater treatment and purification station in Abha, the central station, has been operating for more than 30 years, in accordance with the 40000 m3 wastewater treatment system. This station operates a tertiary treatment system that allows safe irrigation for palm trees. These waters are analyzed on a daily basis. The results of these analyzes show the safety of the treated wastewater that flows to Wadi Bisha. The basic operations of the wastewater are explained until they are processed by Engineer Wael Mustafa, project manager and engineer Amin Ahmed, specialist in the tertiary treatment of the station, using a special panel composing the station components with engineering drawings. we decided to visit the sight and monitors to all the stages of the treatment, and these by explaining the physical therapy to biological treatment and to pumping treated water into drainage channels outside the station. At the end of the visit, the accompanying doctors expressed their thanks and gratitude to the engineers who are supervising the station for useful and valuable information that promotes the scientific method and the integration of the educational process.
