New Nano Safety System Tested
From NIOSH –
NIOSH researchers recently evaluated the effectiveness of a portable HEPA-filter local exhaust ventilation system as a possible tool for controlling exposure to nanoparticles from metal oxides. The study showed that this particular system, in conjunction with good work practices, was successful in controlling nanoscale emissions during processes of this type.
