Impact on Respirable Dust Levels When Operating a Flooded-bed Scrubber in 20-foot Cuts
ISBN: 9781496027498 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 68 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Underground coal mining companies that operate continuous miner sections often apply to the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) for approval to take extended cuts to depths of up to 40 ft as a means of improving productivity. Historically, MSHA has granted approval of this practice if the mine has successfully demonstrated the ability to control the roof, methane, and respirable dust while extracting these extended cuts. A key component for controlling dust generated by continuous miners in 40-ft cuts has been the utilization of flooded-bed scrubbers. These fan-powered scrubbers pull...

Less visible, however, is the risk this same environment and these same hazards impose on the health of the women and men who work there. Although often thought of as clean and safe, workplaces in the Healthcare and Social Assistance (HCSA) sector are associated with many of the same types of exposures to chemicals and hazards found in "blue...

Tobacco Use Prevention Media Campaigns: Lessons Learned From Youth in Nine Countries

To help stem this alarming increase in tobacco-related mortality, governments should help reduce the number of young smokers because most smokers initiate tobacco use in their youth. One way to reduce the number of young smokers is to help youth make a commitment to not smoking (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 1994). Mass media provide effective tools for...
