Chemical Engineering News◗ ◗ ◗Robert (Pete) Counce was elected a fellow of the American Institute of ChemicalEngineers. He has pioneered techniques for teaching process design. His research anddevelopment activities concentrate on industrial pollution prevention.Pete began his chemical engineering career at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL)in 1974, in the area of nuclear fuel reprocessing. He used his research at ORNL as thebasis for M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from UT. Over his career he has produced more than100 journal articles, technical reports and meeting presentations. He also consults forseveral major industries.He has taught most of the chemical engineering courses at UT. Pete has developed agraduate course in industrial pollution prevention, and an industrially supportedcapstone design course. In the capstone activity, each student team has an authenticDr. Pete Counceand unique project and is supported by an industrial advisor and an academic advisorwho serve as coaches. Over 150 students have participated in that experience at UT.Pete has been involved in many national AIChE activities, such as chairing numerous sessions for nationalAIChE meetings, serving as the Environmental Division’s Group Program Chair for the Spring 1989 NationalMeeting and serving on the Admissions Committee. He was lecturer for AIChE’s Continuing Educationcourse, “Fundamentals of Industrial Gas Absorption and Stripping,” and he reviews submissions for AIChEJournal and Environmental Progress. On the local level, Pete has led AIChE’s Knoxville-Oak Ridge Section.Among his honors are the 2000 Leon and Nancy Cole Superior Teaching Award from the UT College ofEngineering.Our newest faculty member is Dr. Brian Edwards. He joined us at thebeginning of the 2001 Spring Semester. He earned a Bachelor’s Degree with highestdistinction from the Chemical Engineering Department at the University of Illinois,graduating Summa Cum Laude in 1986. His bachelor’s thesis involved the investigationof flow-induced phase changes in polymer solutions. He then enrolled directlyin the Ph.D. program in the Department of Chemical Engineering at the Universityof Delaware, where his Ph.D. dissertation investigated the fundamentalconcepts and application of thermodynamics to the dynamic behavior of materials.He graduated in 1991 and has continued his work on the fundamental basis of nonequilibriumthermodynamics at several institutions since then.Dr. Brian EdwardsMost recently, he has been Oberassistant at the Swiss Federal Institute ofTechnology (ETH) in Zurich, Switzerland. In 1994, he and co-author Antony Beris published a monographbased on their research in non-equilibrium thermodynamics through Oxford University Press. He has writtenover forty articles for technical journals, and now continues his research on non-equilibrium thermodynamicsapplied to complex fluids through molecular and atomistic simulations in the Chemical Engineering Departmentat the University of Tennessee in Knoxville.9
