4.7 MB Download
This volume provides an overview of the determinants of the
release of and exposure to airborne nanoparticles. Whether
intentionally manufactured or unintentionally generated during
industrial processes, the release of nanoparticles can result in
significant worker exposure, which must be dealt with adequately
by means of dedicated risk assessments to ensure workplace health
and safety. The book extensively discusses a number of
measurement and modelling strategies available for this purpose.
It also reviews the health hazardous potential of nano-sized
particles and fibres, and follows the flow of engineered
nanomaterials from production and use to disposal and the
environment. It appeals to a wide readership, from specialists
already working in the field to newcomers aiming to gain insights
into this topic.
