Souders received a Bachelor of Science degree in chemical engineering from Montana State College in 1926 and a Master of Science degree in 1927 and a Doctor of Philosophy degree in 1931, each from the University of Michigan. He was a leader in developing new industrial process ideas, particularly chemical processes involving mass transfer and extractive distillation.

While at Shell, Dr. Souders made major contributions to methods of fractionation requirements, and he also contributed to the technical vocabulary such expressions as "K-value," "stripping factor," and "extractive distillation." He pioneered in relating physical and thermodynamic properties of components to molecular structure, and he was largely responsible for the establishment of Shell Development Company's strong Chemical Engineering Department.
