Chem-E-Car Project

A Project by AIChE

Our car runs on chemistry and your support.
We are a multi-disciplinary student engineering team designing and building a shoebox-sized car powered and stopped entirely through chemical reactions.

Your contribution helps us buy our reagents, circuits, filaments, car parts, and lab glassware to safely test and compete in the AIChE Regional Conference that our WSU AIChE chapter is hosting this year.
We are extremely grateful for your generous donation!

$5

Starting Line

The first step of any race is the starting line! Before our car can even take off, we need the basic supplies like wires, nuts, bolts, and screws. Your donation helps us get a car on the starting line. We are grateful for your donation!

$10

Controlled Reaction

Our car runs on chemistry! Your donation helps us buy our reagents and necessary labware. This lets us control the chemistry from start to finish from reliably generating voltage in the battery to launch the car and precisely stopping it with our stopping reaction at the finish line. Thank you for your support!

$25

Gear Change

Fine-tuning matters. Your support helps us build the base with 3d printing filament, replace worn axles, and put on better wheels. This equipment helps shave seconds off our race time. Thank you for your donation!

$50

Catalyst Push

Your contribution is a catalyst that accelerates our development timeline and our car! With your support, we can purchase the circuit hardware required to build, instrument, and control a fully competition-ready Chem-E-Car system. Thank you for fueling our run!

$100

Finish Line Fuel

Precision testing isn’t optional! Your donation fuels final calibration, safety checks, and practice runs that get us across the finish line. This is what will win our race. Thank you for powering our reaction!

$250

National AIChE Qualifier

Your support gives us the materials and equipment we need to compete at a national level!From circuits and reagents to testing and travel, you’re not just funding a project but you’re also helping our team step onto the AIChE stage with confidence. Thank you for your generous donation!
