Duties and employment requirements of chemical technicians and chemical technologists




Read about main duties and employment requirements of chemical technicians and chemical technologists and say what duties you do perform as students of the faculty of Chemistry. Tell what employment requirements concerning your future job you are to meet.

Chemical technologists and technicians provide technical support and services or may work independently in chemical engineering, chemical and biochemical research and analysis, industrial chemistry, chemical quality control and environmental protection. They are employed by research and development and quality control laboratories, consulting engineering companies, in chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical and a variety of other manufacturing and processing industries and by utilities, health, education and government establishments.

There is a great deal of professional titles according to the branch or even the direction of either science or industry: analytical technician, chemical analyst, biochemistry technologist, chemical engineering technologist, chemical laboratory analyst, chemical laboratory analyst, chemical research technician, food technologist, food technologist, geochemical technician, industrial hygiene technologist, mass spectrometer technician, master dyer – textiles, paint technician, quality control technician - chemical processing, quality control technician - food processing and so on.

 

Chemical technologists perform some or all of the following duties:

• Set up and conduct chemical experiments, tests and analyses using techniques such as chromatography, spectroscopy, physical and chemical separation techniques and microscopy

• Operate and maintain laboratory equipment and apparatus and prepare solutions of gas or liquid, reagents and sample formulations

• Compile records and interpret experimental or analytical results

• Develop and conduct programs of sampling and analysis to maintain quality standards of raw materials, chemical intermediates and products

• Assist in the development of chemical engineering processes, studies of chemicalengineering procurement, construction, inspection and maintenance and the development of standards, procedure and health and safety measures

• Operate experimental chemical or petrochemical pilot plants

• Conduct or assist in air and water quality testing and assessments, environmental monitoring and protection activities and development of and compliance with standards

• Assist in synthesis of small molecules for the purpose of creating drug candidates

•Assist in the design and fabrication of experimental apparatus

Chemical technicians perform some or all of the following duties:

• Assist in setting up and conducting chemical experiments, tests and analyses

• Operate and maintain laboratory equipment and apparatus and prepare solutions of gas and liquid, reagents and sample formulations

• Compile records for analytical studies

• Assist in developing and conducting programs of sampling and analysis to maintain quality standards

• Carry out a limited range of other technical functions in support of chemical research, tests and analyses, and environmental air and water quality monitoring and protection

• Assist in the design and fabrication of experimental apparatus.

• Employment requirements vary from country to country. See what they are in Canada.

• Chemical technologists usually require completion of a two- or three-year college program in chemical, biochemical or chemical engineering technology or a closely related discipline.

• Chemical technicians usually require completion of a one- or two-year college program in chemical, biochemical or chemical engineering technology.

• National certification for chemical technologists and technicians is available through the Canadian Society for Chemical Technology.

• Certification in chemical engineering technology or in a related field is available through provincial associations of engineering/applied science technologists and technicians and may be required by employers.

• In province of Quebec, Canada; membership in the regulatory body is required to use the title of Professional Technologist.

• A period of supervised work experience, usually two years, is required before certification.
