Four others--development officers, mortgage lending directors, plant engineering managers, and advertising and public relations managers--have seen their paychecks shrink from 2005, but have done better since 2009.
However, largely because of the unscientific policies of the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Environmental Protection Agency, plant genetic engineering has realized only a small fraction of its potential.
Its plant business carries out engineering works for chemical equipment, power equipment and others.
Redundancies were announced at Airbus' Broughton plant in Flintshire and at Trefn Engineering, Llay, near Wrexham.
But as part of his course work he toured a Magnolia Ice Cream plant with one of his chemical engineering classmates, his soon-to-be wife, and learned of a franchise opportunity.

Today, operating through various foundations and front companies, the family is also believed to control one of Iran's biggest oil engineering companies, a plant assembling Daewoo automobiles, and Iran's best private airline (though the Rafsanjanis insist they do not own these assets).
Engineering continues on a processing plant to handle 60, 000 metric tons of ore per day, as well as associated infrastructure facilities.

There are bottlenecks in permitting, engineering, financing and building a new plant and then tying it to the electricity network.
Some of these developers are established engineering and construction firms in the power plant business, or they are owners of fossil fuel power plants.

Though it has offices abroad and a plant in China, all of DEK's engineering is carried out at its Weymouth headquarters, where a third of its 1, 000-strong global workforce are employed.
For decades plant biologists have used brute-force methods of genetic engineering to produce biotech seeds that kill bugs and withstand herbicides.
The data showed the average forces of a soccer-ball header were similar to those exerted on the head by punches from amateur boxers, according to Daniel Plant, a researcher in Imperial's department of mechanical engineering, who presented the data Friday at a helmet-safety science conference at the university.
The company is working with an engineering and construction company in Singapore to build a pilot desalination plant there.
The actual experiment, though, is on Hawaii, where Lockheed is collaborating with a smaller firm, Makai Ocean Engineering, to build a ten megawatt (MW) pilot plant that should be operational by 2015.
In September Ecuador's president, Rafael Correa, expelled managers of Odebrecht, a Brazilian engineering company which he accuses of bribery and shoddy construction of a power plant.

Because a field trial with a genetically engineered plant may be 10 to 20 times more expensive than the same experiment performed with a plant that has identical properties but that was modified with less precise genetic techniques, genetic engineering with the best techniques has been vastly under-used for the past 25 years.

Those estimates themselves are iffy, since nobody knows yet where the leaks are, says Hajimu Yamana, a professor of nuclear engineering at Kyoto University and head of a government panel studying how to dismantle the plant.
