Industrial Visit

Taking the classroom onto the plant floor

The Department of Chemistry, COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus is arranging an industrial visit to Sitara Chemicals, Faisalabad on Monday, 5 October 2026. The visit is open to students of BS3 and MS2.

Exploring Chemistry Beyond the Classroom

The theme under which the department runs its industrial engagement programme.

Visits of this kind close the gap between what a reaction looks like in a flask and what it looks like as a continuous process running at tonnage scale. Students see the engineering that sits around the chemistry — the vessels, the control room, the utilities and the safety systems — and meet the chemists and engineers who run it.

On the visit

What the students will see

Process plant

Reactors, columns and the layout of a working production line.

Unit operations

Separation, heat transfer and material handling at industrial scale.

Quality control

How product specification is tested and held in a plant laboratory.

Workplace safety

Handling, containment and the safety culture of a chemical site.

Organisers

Arranged with the Salimuzzaman Siddiqui Chemistry Society

The visit is organised by Dr. Kanwal Rahid in collaboration with the Salimuzzaman Siddiqui Chemistry Society (SSCS), the department’s student society, and supports the department’s theme, From Molecular Science to Digital Industrial Solutions.
