The final (online) of the 4th National Undergraduate ChemicalEngineeringExperiment Contest of "Oriental Simulation Obel" Cup was heldatNanjing TechnologyUniversity.77out of all participating300 teamsfrom domestic universities competed in the final session and the “107℃”team from the School of Chemical Engineering and Technology of TJU won the first place of the outstanding winners.
The three students, Yuanyue, Qi Jiangshan and Shang Qichen,formed the team through intramuralcompetitionsin May 2021. They won the Grand Prize in the North China Regional Competition of the National University ChemicalEngineeringExperiment Contest in July and successfullygotto the national finals. In the finals, they demonstrated thesoundknowledge and innovative abilityin the competition of chemical engineering principles and virtual simulation competitions. In the experimental operation competition, they united and cooperatedin sync, which reflected their outstanding practical ability and teamwork awareness. They stood out from all teams and won the crown at end.
The three students devoted themselves to the contest during the summer vacation. However, because of the sudden covid-19epidemicin Nanjing, the national final contest scheduled in August was delayed to September and the competitionwas holdonline. ThesupervisorsFan Jiangyang, Jiang Feng, Hu Tongyusacrificedtheir holiday and preparedforthe competition actively with their students. They overcame the influence of the new competition form and made a detailedprogramand plan B. With the effortsofboth teachers and students, they won the first prize again.

The National University Chemical Engineering Experiment Competition is a competition organized by the China Chemical Engineering Education Association for college students majoring in chemistry and chemical engineering at ordinary colleges and universities. It aims to promote the construction of "emerging engineering education" for chemical engineering majors in colleges and universities, strengthen the comprehensive quality and ability training of college students, and improve education and service for the development of the petroleum and chemical industry. It was officially launched in May 2017 and held annually. It is the fourth time in 2021. The theme of this year’s competition is "Pioneering-Chemical Engineer". The previous competitions were held at Tianjin University, East China University of Science and Technology, and Dalian University of Technology in 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. The finals of the 5th National University Chemical Engineering Experiment Competition will be held in Sichuan University in August 2022.
