1. Professional Engineering Disclaimer
The calculation engines, engineering reference sheets, property correlations, and fundamentals provided on ChemProCal are developed for preliminary design estimation, educational review, and conceptual engineering evaluation only.
While every effort is made to maintain the highest standard of mathematical and thermodynamic accuracy in accordance with published engineering codes (such as API, ASME, ISA, and GPSA):
- Calculations generated by ChemProCal do NOT substitute for certified professional engineering review, rigorous detailed design, site-specific hazard assessments (HAZOP/SIL), or vendor-certified equipment guarantees.
- Final design, procurement, fabrication, and installation of process piping, pressure vessels, relief valves, rotating machinery, and instrumentation must be validated by a licensed Professional Engineer (PE / Chartered Engineer) in compliance with all applicable statutory regulations and project specifications.
- ChemProCal assumes no legal liability for engineering decisions, plant modifications, equipment selection, or project outcomes resulting from the use of our calculators.

You are granted a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the public tools and content for your professional workflow, academic research, and personal engineering study. You agree that you will not:
- Use automated scripts, web scrapers, bots, or crawlers to harvest mass data or disrupt service availability without prior written authorization.
- Attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, or extract the proprietary server-side algorithms or database architecture powering ChemProCal tools.
- Circumvent or attempt to bypass security measures, rate limiters, or access control headers.
- Use the platform for any unlawful purpose or in violation of international export control laws.
