Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Exposure to particulates and fluorides and respiratory health of workers in an aluminum production potroom with limited control measures

Notes: Sumario: Occupational exposure to air pollutants and health status of potroom workers of an aluminum reduction plant in a developing country were studied and compared with those in developed countries. In this plant, the posts were constructed and installed without recommended gas collecting hoods or segmented side doors, and the workers did not use any respiratory protection. These conditions, combined with manual material handling and poor housekeeping, gave rise to fugitive air pollution generationRelated records: En: American Industrial Hygiene Association journal. - Akron, Ohio. - Vol. 56, nº 10, October 1995 ; p. 1008-1015Materia / lugar / evento: Higiene industrial Fluoruros Aluminio Sector industrial Valores TLV Enfermedades profesionales Vías respiratorias Contaminación ambiental Secondary titles: Título: American Industrial Hygiene Association journal
