Chemical Engineering provides an intellectual framework and toolkit for addressing a tremendous range of societally-important problems today, and it is always open to adding new tools that will be needed for tackling the big problems of the future. My group has been able to add to that toolkit with the Reaction Mechanism Generator software package, which allows to answer many long-standing questions about proposed alternative fuels.
