In recent year’s researcher and research scholars are working on different project in workroom or the laboratories. There are many instruments and industry setup need to study for better understanding of the system but which is not feasible to set as a test bed for study purpose only. Every time it is also not possible for taking research scholars for industry visit to gain the in depth working...

The method of X-Ray Photo-electron Spectroscopy is used to determine the chemical state of the sulfur species present in fly-ash samples produced by burning a number of pulverized coal samples under reducing conditions in a continuous combustion furnace. The influence of submicron metallic constituents present in the flue-gases of the pyrometallurical systems on the state of the sulfur species ...

The purpose of this paper is to overview and summarize previously published results of our experiments on white rats exposed to either a single intratracheal instillation or repeated intraperitoneal injections of silver, gold, iron oxide, copper oxide, nickel oxide, and manganese oxide nanoparticles (NPs) in stable water suspensions without any chemical additives. Based on these results and som...

The main sources of arsenic emission in Romania are ore smelters and refineries. Arsenic determinations were carried out by the silver diethyldithiocarbamate spectrophotometric method on hair and urine samples taken from smelter workers and individuals residing in two polluted areas and three areas not polluted by arsenic. Arsenic in hair was found to be a more reliable biologic test than tests...

Technological progress and related social processes will determine the measuring strategies of workplace air monitoring for the nineties even if the objective is dose estimation or compliance. Expectations of the lowest possible exposure, require workplace air monitoring to be closely linked to process control in a life cycle approach. Production regularity and preventive maintenance also becom...

Performance of a direct-reading handy equipment for dust counting in workroom air, PDR (MIE, USA), was field-tested in comparison with the results of low-volume air sampling-gravimetry. Application in 64 workplaces of various type dust work with dust concentrations of up to 1.6 mg/m3 showed that the agreement was generally good with a correlation coefficient (r) >0.64. The calculated regression...

Exposure to carbon disulphide (CS2) in a viscose plant was measured by personal monitoring and by application of the iodine azide test and quantification of 2-thio-thiazolidine-4-carboxylic-acid (TTCA) in urine samples. A relation was found between the rise in urinary TTCA concentration during the workshift and the exposure index E1. The correlation (r) between the exposure index and the atmosp...
