Fundamentals of Process Control and Systems Implementation (1.2 CEUs)

Kim Choo

Kim Choo, P.ENG, PhD, C.Eng, MIChemE, ISA, is an affiliate member of the International Composite Research Institute of Western University, Ontario. He received his PhD and MSc from Wales University, UK, in Chemical Engineering, as well as his BSc in Chemical Engineering from Nanyang University, Singapore.

Dr. Choo has extensive experience in the Chemical Engineering industry. His experience includes pioneering applied research at Lambton College being awarded a total of over $1,700,000 of research funds by CERC, OCE, NSERC, and OIT to perform industrial sponsored applied research. He installed distributed control systems and implemented advanced process control applications for major international petrochemical corporations including Bayer Inc and Nova Chemicals. Dr. Choo was a Quality Excellence awards recipient as a technical project leader from Bayer Inc for five years consecutively.

His many publications include "Process Control System Integration and Instrumentation Improvement for Biomass Processing", Cheryl Ebert, Bing He, Jun Zheng, Kim Choo, Lars Rehmann, CsChe Conference (2011).

Dr. Choo is currently an adjunct Research Professor at the Chemical and Biological Engineering Department, Western University, Ontario.
