Science process manufacturing spans industries like biotechnology, chemicals, composites, petrochemicals, polymers, and pharmaceuticals. These industries use biological, chemical, or physical processes to transform raw materials into products, either continuously or in batches.
Highly regulated, these industries must comply with Health and Safety Executive standards and COMAH regulations to manage risks to employees, products, the environment, and the community.
The main role is to follow standard procedures to produce materials and products, such as battery cells, wind turbine parts, drugs, plastic bottles, proteins, and solvents. This includes preparing materials, using specialized equipment, monitoring processes, resolving issues, maintaining work areas, contributing to quality control, continuous improvement, problem-solving, and completing essential work records.
