Shipyard painting is most often viewed as pure ship construction operations, where the painting of the hull, deck, superstructure, and cargo spaces makes up the total effort and cost. This view may be justified when analyzing various trade production costs as parts of the total ship cost. However, parts preparation and painting costs are significant when looked at in summary as a new constructi...

To measure the hazard to the worker it is often necessary to determine the atmosphere concentration of mercury in a workroom. It should be borne in mind that inhalation of mercury, though probably the most dangerous, is not the only way by which mercury enters the body. It follows that a measurement of the mercury content of the atmosphere does not give a full indication of the hazard. Air anal...

CONTEXT Noise of machines in various agro-based industries was found to be the major occupational hazard for the workers of industries. The predominant noise sources need to be identified and the causes of high noise need to be studied to undertake the appropriate measures to reduce the noise level in one of the major agro-based industries, oil mills. AIMS To identify the predominant noise so...

water resource scarcity, population growth, pollution of surface and groundwater by discharging toxic wastewater and subsequent diseases may raise the necessity of reusing and treatment of wastewater. cyanide is one of the toxic materials which can be found in some industrial wastewaters. strict laws set by international bodies have forced industries to work on developing efficient cyanide remo...
