A chemical processor is a manufacturing and production worker who prepares various chemicals. In this career, your responsibilities are the operation of industrial equipment used to mix chemicals, the preparation and loading of raw materials, and the packaging and storing of the finished product. Your duties may also include collecting samples of the end product to perform quality control tests, interpreting chemical readings, making adjustments to the preparation process as needed, and cleaning and maintaining the equipment used in production.
