IChemE names new technical vice president
Ed Daniels, IChemE Fellow and executive vice president of Shell Global Solutions’ downstream business, has been elected to the post of technical vice president of IChemE Council.
Daniels succeeds Nigel Perry, ceo of the UK’s Centre for Process Innovation in the role, which has a three-year term. Daniels will work closely with IChemE Subject Groups and lead the review of the Institution’s technical strategy.
Daniels received a Master’s of Chemical Engineering from Imperial College London, UK in 1988 and joined Shell’s refining business the same year. He worked across a number of Shell’s divisions, including sales and marketing, before becoming president of US-based CRI/Criterion, Shell’s refining and petrochemicals catalyst business, in 2006.
In July 2009, Daniels was appointed executive vice president of Shell Global Solutions’ downstream business with responsibility for technology service support to downstream assets and products, as well as all commercial activities in the Global Solutions group.
