Reducing workers'dust exposure during bag stacking in enclosed vehicles / Andrew B. Cecala, Anthony Covelli, and Edward D. Thimons

Sumario: This report describes the work performed by the Bureau of Mines to determine a cost effective system for ventilating enclosed vehicles as they exist today. Full-scale laboratory testing was peformed to determine effective methods to ventilate these enclosed vehicles. The most effective method then was tested at a mineral processing plant to optimize the technique in a working environment and to determine its effectiveness at lowering dust concentrations inside these vehicles loading of product material
