Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Specialized technical job that uses electrolytic cells to refine non-ferrous metals (mainly copper, etc.) and produce high-purity metals.
Description
Electrolytic keeper workers are a job type that uses electrolytes such as copper sulfate to remove impurities and repeatedly perform anodic dissolution and cathodic precipitation to manufacture high-purity metals. Operators handle the operation of electrolytic cells, management of current and voltage, adjustment of electrolyte concentration, removal of deposited metal, sludge removal, etc. They also handle safety and health management, equipment inspections, and simple maintenance, and perform concentration measurements using analytical instruments and product purity inspections for quality control. The work mainly consists of line operations and standing work, requiring caution with high-temperature environments and handling of heavy objects.
Future Outlook
Although on-site work is decreasing due to advances in automation and labor reduction, there is continued demand for specialized roles in advanced process control and quality management.
