Analytical

Analytical chemistry is the study of chemical compounds to identify them and determine their properties. Analytical chemists use different types of analysis depending on what particular type of chemical or property they want to identify, including:
• Gravimetric analysis, which is finding out how much of a compound or material is present
• Qualitative analysis, which is testing to find out whether a certain chemical is present or not
• Thermal analysis, which is testing the interaction of a material with heat
• Volumetric analysis, which is titrating a chemical to find an equivalence point (where the chemical is neutral), to find out its concentration
These analyses can be done using different tests, including:
• Calorimetry- seeing at what point a compound melts at to test its purity
• Chromatography- separating a material into its components to determine its complexity
• Spectroscopy- seeing how the molecules interact with electromagnetic radiation, to help learn the structure and identify the chemical

Biomolecular

Biomolecular chemistry is the study of chemical processes and reactions in living things. This includes learning how biological molecules, including carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids and proteins work and enable the processes that happen in the cells of living things. This particular type of chemistry has helped scientists shape the knowledge of our world and explain things like DNA replication, genetic crosses and how genes work. Some of the techniques biomolecular chemists use include microscopy, which is examining things under a microscope, and x-ray crystallography, which is producing a 3D image of how electrons are arranged in a crystal. X-ray crystallography was used by Rosalind Franklin, whose research largely contributed to the discovery of the DNA double helix.

Cereal

Cereal chemistry is the study and research of the properties, composition, structure and transformations of wheat and grains. This type of chemistry is becoming increasingly important as grains and cereals such as wheat and rice are the basis of the world’s food supply. The analyses cereal chemists perform vary in technicality- some simply analyse the biochemical components of grains and cereals, where others, especially in food companies, focus on the practical aspect of food production, quality control and product development. This type of chemistry is more predominant in areas with high agricultural production, where it is important to improve and maintain high quality yields.

Environmental

Environmental chemistry is the study of chemical phenomena in nature. This includes the sources, reactions, transport and effects of chemical species in air, soil and water. It also includes the effects of human activities upon these natural environments. Environmental chemists use many of the same techniques as analytical chemists to analyse the chemical composition of their samples. While environmental chemists do not necessarily research pollution and how humans can reduce it, they do investigate contamination in the environment of things like heavy metals. Environmental chemists work alongside many other types of scientists and engineers, including environmental engineers and green chemists.

Electrochemistry

Electrochemistry is the study of the interchange between chemical and electrical energy. This is done by researching what happens in solution between an electron conductor and ion conductor, and the reactions that happen through the flow of electrons, driven by reduction and oxidation reactions. Some examples of these types of reactions are batteries- from the cell batteries that power television remotes to car and laptop batteries, they all use electrochemistry to generate electricity. Electrochemistry is becoming quite popular as it provides potential ways to power our lives without fossil fuels and minimising pollution to the environment, through producing electricity from the energy given off in chemical reactions. Electrochemists conduct research into projects such as electrochemical cells, fuel cells and electroplating- that is, coating materials with a layer of metal.

Industrial

Industrial chemistry is the hands-on application of many chemical principles and procedures. It includes the analysis of raw chemicals, and uses thermodynamic principles and computer modelling to simulate the operations of a chemical plant. Industrial chemists test theories and processes for product development in a wide range of industries, from chemical production to paint formulation, oil refining and milk pasteurisation. They also work on optimising complex chemical processes, and the effects of the processes on the environment, particularly in the petrochemical and energy production fields. Industrial chemists work alongside a vast range of other professionals, including chemical engineers, process engineers, analytical chemists and polymer chemists.
