Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Basic chemical product manufacturing workers handle a series of processes from raw material charging to reaction, separation, purification, quality inspection, and packaging in basic chemical product manufacturing plants. They operate equipment, perform quality control and safety management, and maintain stable production.
Description
Basic chemical product manufacturing workers are on-site operators in chemical factories who produce basic chemical products such as sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, alkalis, and intermediates. Specifically, they handle a wide range of tasks including measuring and charging raw materials, monitoring reaction conditions (temperature and pressure), operating separation and purification processes such as distillation and extraction, analyzing products and checking quality, and preparing finished products for packaging and shipment. They inspect plant equipment operating parameters, respond promptly to abnormalities, and also engage in regular maintenance inspections, cleaning, and device maintenance. Work is often on a shift system, and since it involves handling chemical substances, safety management and environmental measures are crucial.
Future Outlook
The chemical industry is essential for the stable supply of basic materials, and demand will remain stable in the medium to long term. While labor-saving and automation technologies are advancing, the importance of personnel with advanced safety management and equipment maintenance capabilities is increasing.
