Hygienic standards for the content of chemicals in the atmosphere. Fundamentals of safe life

Fundamentals of Safe Life Activities (OBZhD)

Due to the fact that the requirement of the complete absence of industrial poisons in the breathing zone of workers is often impossible, it is of great importance hygienic regulation of the content of harmful substances in the air of the working area, which is carried out in three steps:

1) substantiation of the estimated safe level of exposure;

2) justification of the maximum allowable concentration (MAC);

3) adjustment of this concentration, taking into account the working conditions of workers and their state of health. The establishment of MPC may be preceded by justification of the approximate safe level of exposure to harmful substances in the air of the working area, the atmosphere of populated areas, in water and soil.

Estimated safe exposure level set temporarily for the period preceding the design of production. It is determined by calculation from physicochemical properties or by interpolation and extrapolation in the homologous series of compounds or in terms of acute toxicity, and must be reviewed two years after their approval.

MPC of harmful substances in the air of the working area - concentrations that, during daily work for 8 hours or during other activities, but not exceeding 41 hours per week, during the length of service of the worker, cannot cause diseases or deviations in the state of health detected by modern research methods in the course of work or in the long term of life present or future generations. The content of harmful substances in the air of the working area should not exceed the indicators established by hygienic standards (GN) approved by the Federal Service for Supervision of Consumer Rights Protection and Human Welfare.

MPC of harmful substances in the air of populated areas - maximum concentrations related to a certain averaging period and not having, with a regulated probability of their occurrence, either direct or indirect harmful effects on the human body, including long-term consequences for the present and subsequent generations, which do not reduce a person's performance and do not worsen his well-being.

Maximum MPC concentration - the highest of the 30-minute concentrations recorded at a given point for a certain period of observation, which is based on the principle of the transformation of reflex reactions in humans.

Average MPC concentration - the average of the number of concentrations detected during the day or taken continuously for 24 hours. Its determination is based on the principle of preventing a resorptive (general toxic) effect on the body.

A New Way to Control and Manipulate Optical Signals 05.05.2024

The modern world of science and technology is developing rapidly, and every day new methods and technologies appear that open up new prospects for us in various fields. One such innovation is the development by German scientists of a new way to control optical signals, which could lead to significant progress in the field of photonics. Recent research has allowed German scientists to create a tunable waveplate inside a fused silica waveguide. This method, based on the use of a liquid crystal layer, allows one to effectively change the polarization of light passing through a waveguide. This technological breakthrough opens up new prospects for the development of compact and efficient photonic devices capable of processing large volumes of data. The electro-optical control of polarization provided by the new method could provide the basis for a new class of integrated photonic devices. This opens up great opportunities for ... >>

Primium Seneca keyboard 05.05.2024

Keyboards are an integral part of our daily computer work. However, one of the main problems that users face is noise, especially in the case of premium models. But with the new Seneca keyboard from Norbauer & Co, that may change. Seneca is not just a keyboard, it is the result of five years of development work to create the ideal device. Every aspect of this keyboard, from acoustic properties to mechanical characteristics, has been carefully considered and balanced. One of the key features of Seneca is its silent stabilizers, which solve the noise problem common to many keyboards. In addition, the keyboard supports various key widths, making it convenient for any user. Although Seneca is not yet available for purchase, it is scheduled for release in late summer. Norbauer & Co's Seneca represents new standards in keyboard design. Her ... >>

The world's tallest astronomical observatory opened 04.05.2024

Exploring space and its mysteries is a task that attracts the attention of astronomers from all over the world. In the fresh air of the high mountains, far from city light pollution, the stars and planets reveal their secrets with greater clarity. A new page is opening in the history of astronomy with the opening of the world's highest astronomical observatory - the Atacama Observatory of the University of Tokyo. The Atacama Observatory, located at an altitude of 5640 meters above sea level, opens up new opportunities for astronomers in the study of space. This site has become the highest location for a ground-based telescope, providing researchers with a unique tool for studying infrared waves in the Universe. Although the high altitude location provides clearer skies and less interference from the atmosphere, building an observatory on a high mountain poses enormous difficulties and challenges. However, despite the difficulties, the new observatory opens up broad research prospects for astronomers. ... >>
