Ibn Sina, a philosopher of philosophy, mathematics, astronomy, has a vision: if there were no dust and fumes, people could live for hundreds of years. In other words, dusts are harmful to human health. In terms of scientific definition, powders are tiny particles, 300 microns or smaller in size, bearing the chemical and physical properties of the constituent material, which can remain suspended in the air for a long time.
The properties of powders can be explained as follows:
In short, the most dangerous dusts for human health are those with a size between 5 and 0,5 microns.
During production activities, operations such as digging, drilling, crushing, cutting or shredding cause dust. In addition, many hot processes are sources of dust. Dust, which forms with the heat, is released together with the smoke, if adequate and appropriate precautions are not taken. Dust is also emitted into the air when discharging, transporting, storing or using in powdered or dusty raw materials or semi-processed materials.
Dust that is invisible to the eye and has a long suspended time are the most respirable dusts and have a high risk of causing disease in the lungs.
Our organization From ÖSAS Accreditation Agency, Based on the accreditation authority it receives in accordance with TS EN ISO / IEC 17025 standard, it performs dust measurements within the scope of environmental analysis.
