Anything that is manufactured, processed, or otherwise handled in an industrial sense has an engineer involved.

I am a chemical engineer with a focus on process engineering and process management. We tend to do a lot of odd and interesting things.

If Gov Murkowski is successful in getting the TransAlaska Natural Gas pipeline built, and if the excess gas proposal is part of it, there will be some 35 trillion cf of natural gas passing nearby Fairbanks. That ought to stock some industrial process for a while. At present the only industry seems to be construction and maintenance. And waiting for the gas.
