coking furnace operator (EN)

ISCO 8131 · v1.2.1

Coking furnace operators monitor the operation of a usually automatic industrial oven that takes in crushed, washed, and blended bituminous coal and heats it to temperatures between 1000 and 2000 °C without the presence of oxygen in order to obtain cokes. The finished cokes are then quenched with water or air and prepared for transport.

Classification skills are not a measurement of your proficiency or future displaced hours.
