Industrial Hygiene
Importance of Dust
By N. V. Hendricks
Chief Engineer Industrial Hygiene Service Georgia Departmen of Public Health
Nearly all types of modern industry are concerned
with dust and its control

liate between the origin of these materials a definition of them is in
order
THE annual cost to industry from uncontrolled dust
amounts to a staggering figure In many cases the problem of dust is dismissed by management as only a nuisance In other plants the
recovery of certain dusts is eco-
nomically sound especially where the particulate matter may contain precious metals or may carry valuable processing stock Aside from any nuisance or economic loss resulting from the escape of dust there are certain dust ex-
posures which may result in acute
health hazards This is especially true of dusts containing a high percentage of free silica asbestos
|
or other toxic materials Where
health considerations are involv-
ed in such exposures legal aspects
present themselves In most states
where occupational diseases are
compensable specific coverage is
given to those disabilities result-
ing from the inhalation of silica dust
Definitions
Many times true dusts are con-
fused with fumes smokes mists
and fogs In order to differen-
DUSTS are formed by the reduction of earthy materials and
are usually produced by such ope-
rations as crushing grinding buffing etc. The particle size of dusts may vary considerably ranging from microscopic to
visible
FUMES are formed by sation and sublimation
conden Chemi-
cally they are metallic and are usually the oxides of such metals as zinc and lead The particle size is usually below one micron
Smoke comes from the burning
of organic material and its particle size is usually less than one-
half micron
Mists and Fogs result from the condensation of water vapor on
suitable nuclei and the particle
size will vary with given con-
ditions
General Properties
As a substance is reduced in
particle size there are certain
general properties of the material
which are changed On breaking up a solid into finely divided particles the surface area is greatly
enlarged and therefore the space
occupied is greatly increased As an example a piece of quartz one centimeter on each side when crushed to where the particles of one micron in size will present a system containing 10" number of
particles The total surface area
will be 6 square meters If these
dust particles are dispersed onto
the atmosphere in such manner that the concentration will be 100 million particles per cubic foot the space occupied by this dispersed system will be 10 thousand
cubic feet The chemical activity of a solid
is considerably increased by a reduction in particle size Thus the rate of oxidation is increased as is evidenced by occasional disastrous dust explosions The phenomena of adsorption becomes more important as gases are more easily adsorbed on the surface of
the smaller particle From the standpoint of health
hazards resulting from dust ex-
posures the physiological proper
ties of dust vary somewhat with
the particle size It is an accepted
fact that with exposures to silica
dust the smaller the particle size the greater the hazard
Physiological Response

by classifying the re-
four groups These
a Pneumoconiosis dusts producing this type reaction are harmful only when inhaled The principal materials producing this type reaction are free silica and asbestos dust On inhalation these two materials produce specific lung pathology and from the standpoint of disability present the most important of the dust ex-
posures
b Toxic Reaction poisoning by lead cadmium or radium These materials produce harmful effects when taken into the body both by inhalation and ingestion With reference to lead and its
compounds which may be present in the atmosphere as particulate matter it has been fairly well established that entrance into the
06-07-94 08:03 TO albert body by innalation is more important mode of entry than the same material taken by mouth This is primarily due to the fact that when such materials are tak-
en into the body by inhalation the major portion is taken into the blood stream whereas a considerable part of that taken by mouth is removed by certain organs of the body
c Metal Fume Fevers
conditions result from the inhale-
tion of finely divided fume particles The importance of metal
fume fever has been brought to the attention of industry by the great amount of welding which has been an important industrial tool for the past few years Where burning or welding is done on surfaces which have been galvanized the problem of metal fumes becomes Immediately important

this metal However it appears that exposure to the dust of iron
does not produce pathology unless such exposure is accompanied
by the pressure of free silica The mining of coal results in
exposure to coal dust which con-
tains a high percentage of carbon Detailed studies of exposure to coal dust have been made by the U. S. Public Health Service and other agencies It has been found that in general coal dust is retained in the lungs only when
such dust contains a high per-
centage of free silica Although coal dust may be deposited in the lungs of exposed individuals the condition resulting is usually not considered disabling unless silica
. is present
Silicates make up an important class of industrial materials and
are used principally in the pro-
duction of ceramics and similar
materials Talc kaolin mica clays etc. are chemically silicates and their widespread industrial ap-
plication results in a great number of employees being exposed to this type dust With the excep tion of asbestos which is a silicate this general class of materials does not appear to produce a disabling condition except in isolated casen when taken into the body by in-
sociated with many other minerals and ores The disabling condition resulting from the inhalation of free silica is known ab silicosis and has long been a
problem with industries such as stone cutting granite foundry
abrasive and the like where silica is used in processing There are relatively few industrial operations which might result in direct exposure to pure silica dust The importance of silica lies in its association with other materials
As an example in foundry operations the dust generally will contain clay and materials of a non-
silicious character so that the ac-
tual percentage of free silica may be relatively low This is also true in exposures to coal iron oxide and the mining of ores When hard rock or s^>licais present these dusts become important mainly
due to the presence of silica rather
than to the Inherent properties
of the parent material
Factors Influencing Hezards
In evaluating the exposure to
a dust there are several factors which should be taken into consideration The duration of exposure is important as it will in-
dicate in a general way the total amount of dust which might be
previous employment Where such
a condition exists the desirability of preemployment examination is
obvious The concentration of dust
breathed is important as this within certain limits will deter-
mine the possibility of develop-
ment of dust diseases Consider-
able research and practical obser-
vations have been made in the
field of dust exposures to corre-
late clinical findings with atmospheric concentrations For free silica asbestos and some of the other materials fairly definite standards have been established The nature of dust is important primarily from the standpoint of
free silica content This is particularly true of mixed dusts
which constitute the majority of
industrial exposures The volume
of air breathed enters into the
picture as it directly influenc-
es the amount of dust which will
be taken into the body The rate of respiration or amount of air breathed in general will be determined by the physical effort required on the particular job Where heavy work is being done naturally an individual will require more ventilation then where less physical effort is involved

persed system For the collection
of dust samples several instru-
ments may be employed
Much of the early work done on the control of silicosis in the
mining areas of South Africa was
carried out with the Konimeter
This instrument has been used some in this country however it
has not met with the popularity which is enjoyed by certain other methods From the standpoint of collecting efficiency the electro-

whether it be merely a nuisance value or health consideration To most industrial hygienists 50 million particles per cubic foot is the maximum atmospheric concentra-
tion of dust under which an em-
ployee should work It should be pointed out that the only way of determining both the nature of the
dust and the actual concentration
is by direct sampling and similar procedures for the counting of
dust
static precipitator is probably the choice instrument however most of the work done on correlating
Case History ANY industries having prob-
atmospheric dust concentrations with medical findings has been based on samples collected and counted by the Greenburg technique The collecting device employed is an impinger unit which samples at the rate of one cubic foot per minute
Counting by this technique is done under light field The percentage of free silica in a dust sample is usually determined by either chemical or petrographie methods
Permissible concentrations of
dust have been established for
free silica asbestos and other materials For both silica and asbestos 5 million particles per cubic foot is considered as maximum
MAN Ind dust control recog-
nize the existence of such problems to varied degrees Some take passive attitudes while others apply sound engineering procedures which result in a real job of dust control Such modern engineering methods are used by the LeTourneau Company of Toccoa
Georgia This particular plant manufac-
tures heavy road grading equip
ment and its major dust problem lies in operation of a foundry for the protection of basic steel parts It is interesting to note that this Company considers the control of dust as a part of the general overall production schedule and as a
working concentration The U. S. result has its control methods inte-
Public Health Service has suggest- grated into general plant opera-
ed a procedure by which the total tions
dust concentration in millions of particles per cubic foot is multi-
plied by a percentage of free silica. If the resulting figure is more than 5 million particles per cubic foot the condition is considered
unsafe If less than 5 million the condition is considered safe There should be considered certain limits of dustiness for any type of dust
Although there are several
methods which can be used for
control of dust ventilation both in the form of general and local exhaust probably offers the most satisfactory method and it is this approach which has been used by the LeTourneau Company For general ventilation in the foundry

not be taken for granted a chemical laboratory is essential
_ The Brock Candy Company is now in the process of constructing a modern chemical laboratory and training a technician to perform control analyses The laboratory
whicihs located in a large air con-
ditioned room near the candy cooking operations is equipped with modern topped labor~ tory benches the latest chemical
glassware and such special analyt-
ical instruments as balances _ vacuum oven refractometer and
pH meter Provision bas been made for such analyses as nioisture invert augac viscosity pH melting point and refractive index Many of the control tests have been developed specifically for the Brock Candy Company and new procedures will be added from time to time as the need arises
_ The Industrial Research Institute of the University of Chattanooga has cooperated with the Brock
Candy Company in selecting the equipment outlining and developing analytical procedures and training a technician to operate the
control laboratory A research
project on improvement of the quality of candy has been sponsored by the Brock Candy Company at the Industrial Research Institute of the University of Chattanooga
Since all raw materials will be
analyzed and tested in the company laboratory variation in properties will be detected before the material is used This procedure will assure products of uniform quality since inferior raw materials will be discarded and form~--
ulations will be based on the ac-
tual analysiosf high grade raw
materials rather than on standard
procedure which do not make al-
lowance for variation in the in-
gredients Analysis and testing will assure high quality of finished products and permit any difference in quality to be detected In this way any unavoidable errors in manufacture can be corrected and adequate controls instituted to prevent their reoccurrence
The facilities of the control lab-
oratory will also be available for the evaluation of research and development work being carried out in the factory In addition to maintaining the production of uniform high quality products the person-
nel and equipment of the control
laboratory will be available for many other technical assignments
