Process controls which involve changing the way a job activity or process is done to reduce the risk.
Enclosure and/or isolation of emission source which keeps a selected hazard "physically" away from the worker and ventilation
that strategically "adds" and "removes" air in the work environment. Ventilation can remove or dilute an air contaminant if
designed properly. The design of a ventilation system must match the particular process and chemical or contaminant in use.
Employers may need to use multiple types of controls to prevent employee overexposure.
Local exhaust ventilation is required where solids are handled as powders or crystals; even when particulates are relatively
large, a certain proportion will be powdered by mutual friction.
If in spite of local exhaust an adverse concentration of the substance in air could occur, respiratory protection should be
considered.
Such protection might consist of:
(a): particle dust respirators, if necessary, combined with an absorption cartridge;
(b): filter respirators with absorption cartridge or canister of the right type;
(c): fresh-air hoods or masks.
Air contaminants generated in the workplace possess varying "escape" velocities which, in turn, determine the "capture
velocities" of fresh circulating air required to effectively remove the contaminant.
direct spray, spray painting in shallow booths, drum filling, conveyer loading, crusher dusts, gas 1-2.5 m/s (200-500
discharge (active generation into zone of rapid air motion) f/min.)
grinding, abrasive blasting, tumbling, high speed wheel generated dusts (released at high initial 2.5-10 m/s (500-
velocity into zone of very high rapid air motion). 2000 f/min.)
1: Room air currents minimal or favourable to capture 1: Disturbing room air currents
2: Contaminants of low toxicity or of nuisance value only. 2: Contaminants of high toxicity
4: Large hood or large air mass in motion 4: Small hood-local control only
Simple theory shows that air velocity falls rapidly with distance away from the opening of a simple extraction pipe. Velocity
generally decreases with the square of distance from the extraction point (in simple cases). Therefore the air speed at the
extraction point should be adjusted, accordingly, after reference to distance from the contaminating source. The air velocity at the
extraction fan, for example, should be a minimum of 4-10 m/s (800-2000 f/min) for extraction of crusher dusts generated 2
metres distant from the extraction point. Other mechanical considerations, producing performance deficits within the extraction
apparatus, make it essential that theoretical air velocities are multiplied by factors of 10 or more when extraction systems are
installed or used.
Hands/feet protection The selection of suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality which vary from
manufacturer to manufacturer. Where the chemical is a preparation of several substances, the resistance of the glove material
can not be calculated in advance and has therefore to be checked prior to the application.
The exact break through time for substances has to be obtained from the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be
observed when making a final choice.
Personal hygiene is a key element of effective hand care. Gloves must only be worn on clean hands. After using gloves, hands
should be washed and dried thoroughly. Application of a non-perfumed moisturiser is recommended.
Suitability and durability of glove type is dependent on usage. Important factors in the selection of gloves include:

· Respirators may be necessary when engineering and administrative controls do not adequately prevent exposures.
· The decision to use respiratory protection should be based on professional judgment that takes into account toxicity information, exposure measurement data,
and frequency and likelihood of the worker's exposure - ensure users are not subject to high thermal loads which may result in heat stress or distress due to
personal protective equipment (powered, positive flow, full face apparatus may be an option).
· Published occupational exposure limits, where they exist, will assist in determining the adequacy of the selected respiratory protection. These may be
government mandated or vendor recommended.
· Certified respirators will be useful for protecting workers from inhalation of particulates when properly selected and fit tested as part of a complete respiratory
protection program.
· Where protection from nuisance levels of dusts are desired, use type N95 (US) or type P1 (EN143) dust masks. Use respirators and components tested and
approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU)
· Use approved positive flow mask if significant quantities of dust becomes airborne.
· Try to avoid creating dust conditions.

The material is not thought to produce adverse health effects or irritation of the respiratory tract (as classified by EC Directives
using animal models). Nevertheless, good hygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable
control measures be used in an occupational setting.
Persons with impaired respiratory function, airway diseases and conditions such as emphysema or chronic bronchitis, may incur
Inhaled
further disability if excessive concentrations of particulate are inhaled.
If prior damage to the circulatory or nervous systems has occurred or if kidney damage has been sustained, proper screenings
should be conducted on individuals who may be exposed to further risk if handling and use of the material result in excessive
exposures.
The material has NOT been classified by EC Directives or other classification systems as "harmful by ingestion". This is because

of the lack of corroborating animal or human evidence.
The material is not thought to produce adverse health effects or skin irritation following contact (as classified by EC Directives
Skin Contact using animal models). Nevertheless, good hygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable gloves
be used in an occupational setting.
Although the material is not thought to be an irritant (as classified by EC Directives), direct contact with the eye may cause
Eye
transient discomfort characterised by tearing or conjunctival redness (as with windburn). Slight abrasive damage may also result.
Long-term exposure to the product is not thought to produce chronic effects adverse to the health (as classified by EC Directives
using animal models); nevertheless exposure by all routes should be minimised as a matter of course.
Chronic
Long term exposure to high dust concentrations may cause changes in lung function i.e. pneumoconiosis, caused by particles
less than 0.5 micron penetrating and remaining in the lung.
