The Hazards of Mercury Vapor
When I decide to tell a wider audience everything about personal troubles, which in themselves do not concern others and therefore should not be worth publishing, it is because of an intense wish to spare others, who have anything to do with metallic mercury, the very bad experiences which have destroyed a major part of my life and to very emphatically warn against the volatile metal. I can fre...
متن کاملPreventing mercury vapor release from broken fluorescent lamps during shipping.
Fluorescent lamps are estimated to annually release 1 t of mercury into the air in the United States; transport of used lamps may play an important role in these emissions. In 1999, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency added lamps to the universal waste rule to encourage recycling by allowing shipment to recycling facilities by common carrier. The rules required that lamp packaging must be ...
متن کاملRelease of mercury vapor from coal combustion ash.
The long-term stability of Hg in coal combustion by-products (CCBs) was evaluated at ambient and near-ambient temperatures. Six CCB samples with atypically high levels of total Hg were selected for study assuming a greater potential for release of measurable amounts of Hg vapor. The samples selected included two fly ash samples from U.S. eastern bituminous coal, two fly ash samples from South A...
متن کاملEstimation of mercury vapor flux from natural substrate in Nevada.
The contribution of mercury to the atmosphere from natural sources is not well-quantified, particularly at the regional scale. This modeling study employed a Geographic Information Systems (GIS) approach to estimate mercury flux from substrate in Nevada, which lies within one of the global belts of geologic Hg enrichment. In situ mercury flux measurements were taken from a variety of substrate ...
متن کاملClinical response to therapeutic agents in poisoning from mercury vapor.
Exposure to mercury vapors for an hour per working day over a period of 13 years produced in a thermometer manufacturer severe signs and symptoms of mercury poisoning. Complete disability developed insidiously over the last six months of employment. During the first two months of observation, the patient was treated in succession with three chelating agents: 2,3-dimercapto-l-propanol (BAL), D-p...
