No. 4 eNGINEERING control of dust with special reference to respirators* By A. D. Brandt I Abstract The more common methods of reducing or controlling the respiratory hazard caused by dust are discussed. The specific methods are (1) control of dust at the point of dust generation, (2) isolation of dusty processes, (3) substitution of nonhazardous processes, and (4) reduction of dust in inspired air by respiratory protective devices. The general methods are (1) general ventilation, (2) good housekeeping, and (3) a rigid inspection of all control devices. A detailed discussion is given of respirators, their proper use, con struction, maintenance, and Bureau of Mines approval. | I. Introduction Methods of dust control are not new, but the proper application of engineering principles to such methods is lacking in many cases. Some industries are reluctant to call in qualified engineers to lay out their dust-contj-ol plans. No one method, design, or device will solve the problem for all industries or in one large industry, and only a thorough study of the existing conditions jan give the engineer a basis on which to determine the best method or combination of methods for the problem or industry in question. The important methods of dust control are (1) con trol at the point of generation or dissemination, (2) isolation of dust-producing processes, (3) substitution of less hazardous materials, and (4) reduction of dust in inspired |air by means of respirators. (2) Ducts and Collector The ducts include all piping through which the dusts are carried from the hoods to the collector by the air current created by the fan. The final part of the sys tem is the collector, which retains the dust and permits the clean air to escape into the atmosphere. Routine inspection and maintenance are important. The ducts are clogged all too frequently with worn-out overalls or similar waste materials; properly designed systems are unbalanced by having the tinsmith put in additional branch ducts and exhaust hoods; collectors are not emptied; and bags of collectors are torn or even removed and not replaced. Inspection and main tenance can ensure successful operation for a reasonable period of time. ||. Control at Point of Generation or Dissemination The methods commonly used to control dust at the point of origin are (1) local exhaust ventilation equip ment, (2) water or other suitable liquids, and (3) good housekeeping. A local exhaust ventilation system consists of (1) exhaust hoods, (2) air ducts, (3) collec tor, and j(4) fan. (1) Hoods The purpose of an exhaust hood, which is the vital part of the system, is not to create "suction" but to produce air currents in the area of dust generation of suitable magnitude and acting in the proper direction to overcome the energy of the escaping particles and to carry jthem into the exhaust system. A knowledge of the laws of air flow into suction openings of various shapes is therefore essential to proper design. A thorough1 understanding of the way in which dust is generated is also necessary, especially as it pertains to particle size and to the velocity at which the particles are thrown off. An efficient hood collects the dusts generated with a minimum air flow from the ineffec tive or clean air areas and with minimum power con sumption. A hood is properly designed when it (1) is efficient and (2) does not hinder the operation of the tool or machine. _____________ [ * Presented at the Forty-Second Annual Meeting, The American1 Ceramic Society, Toronto, Canada, April 8, t0 (General Session on Toxicology). Received April 9, (3) Fan To avoid the wear of fan blades and housing resulting from the abrasive action of the dust, the collecting unit should be located on the suction or upstream side of the fan. (4) Spray Wetting down with water by hand or by sprays or streams is a method of control at the point of origin that is widely used. Water helps temporarily to lay dust, and a stream carries away many particles, but the procedure is fundamentally impracticable as an effec tive safeguard. It is impossible to wet most of the par ticles by the usual means owing to the gas layer which envelops them. Few particles are collected and con sequently many of those that are temporarily wetted will remain in suspension owing to evaporation of the surrounding layer of water before complete settling has taken place. When other methods are not available or are impracticable, however, the use of a water stream is worth while. (5) Good Housekeeping Good housekeeping as a means of dust control is possibly the least difficult and least expensive to em ploy and frequently accomplishes remarkable results. It prevents dust accumulations in any part of the plant where the dust may be redispersed by careless operation, shock, or wind currents. Such dust may be wetted down and removed frequently and permanently. Fre quent and regular use of large vacuum cleaners on (1941) 123 124 Bulletin of The American Ceramic Society--Brandt beams, rafters, or other inaccessible places is also help ful in solving this problem. III. Isolation of Dust-Producing Processes The isolation of dust-producing processes limits the exposure to a few men who may be protected by res pirators. The inclosure of these processes in dusttight chambers or rooms, such as abrasive blasting cabinets, is effective. The chambers and dust-control devices,' however, must be kept in good working condi tion to maintain their effectiveness. IV. Substitution of Less Hazardous Materials The substitution of less hazardous materials offers an absolute method of dust control, but extensive changes in the manufacturing process are often required which may not be practicable. This method should not be recommended unless or until it is established that the quality1 of the manufactured item will not suffer by such change. The replacement of sandstone grinding wheels by artificial abrasive wheels and sand by steel shot in abrasive blasting has effected a substantial re duction' in the silicosis rate, of the pertinent industries. wearer. A filter respirator which is to be accepts k industry as satisfactory should (1) be comfortable a ^ fit the face well, affording an air-tight contact betwetJ the face and the mask, (2) have little or no interferen with vision and permit the use of glasses or gogo] (3) have a highly effective filter which is not bulky ^ have low resistance to breathing over a period of 'u^ (5) have small dead air space, and (6) have both inhaia' tion and exhalation valves. Dust respirators are usually constructed of a rubber or part-rubber facepiece and a filtering medium 0f felted or paperlike material. Exhalation valves are now almost universal, and inhalation or check valves are supplied in most respirators. Inhalation valves are intended to prevent (1) rebreathing exhaled air and (2) the humid exhaled air from getting into and fouling the filter. Rebreathing exhaled air, which has a high carbon dioxide content, induces panting and causes the wearer to think that there is a lack of air or that the resistance to breathing is high. He will attempt many solutions to eliminate these difficulties, all 0f which will seriously impair the performance of the respirator. V. 1 Use of Respirators (or Reduction of Dust in Inspired Air Respirators are misused and abused more than any other dust-control device. The amount of dust in the inspired air may be re duced to a safe value by suitable respiratory protective devices. These alone are not the solution to many of the dust-control problems in industry, but they are a necessary and helpful adjunct to other methods. Al though there are a number of different types of respira tors, the two types which are used most commonly in dust control are (1) the mechanical filter or dust respira tor and (2) the supplied-air or air-line respirator and abrasive blasting helmet. These respirators are used extensively on jobs such as abrasive blasting, paint chipping, handling used storage battery plates, cad mium oxide manufacture, welding operations, spraying of paints and glazes, and manufacture and use of pig ments and dyes. Their most important use is found under conditions where protection is required inter mittently, as in cleaning-out operations; sweeping; after blasting; removing cores from large foundry cast ings; shoveling, screening, and handling of materials; and the operation and maintenance of processing equip ment. Respirators should not be considered to be part of the worker's wearing apparel. They are safety devices and should be supplied by the employer. The em ployer, moreover, must see that they are distributed to all employees who need them, and he must tell the workers when and how to use them, which is a difficult task and is accomplished only by incessant instruction. (1) Mechanical Filter Respirators When the mechanical filter respirator is worn on a man's face, a certain percentage of the dust is filtered out from the inspired air. The air movement through the filter is produced by the respiratory action of the (2) Supplied-Air Respirators or Helmets The air-line respirator and the abrasive blasting helmet are the supplied-air devices most commonly found in industry. The respirator consists of a face mask with an attached hose or rubber tube through which air is supplied, and the air is pumped or blown from a source of clean air to men in the various expo sures. These devices afford positive protection if they are properly installed and maintained. The intake to airsupply systems used for this purpose must be located at a point where the air is clean and where it will not be contaminated by dust from nearby buildings. For the removal of oil, water, and odors from the air, a good air cleaner or purifier should be installed in the supply line. The cleaners, however, do not remove carbon monoxide which may be given off in antiquated or worn compres sors. To avoid the possibility of carbon monoxide poisoning in men wearing supplied-air respirators, it is imperative that the air pump or blower should receive adequate routine inspection and periodic overhauling. The abrasive blasting helmet completely incloses the wearer's head, forming a seal at the neck and shoulders or having a directly connected cape which may be tucked in under an over-all jacket or may be even extended to the waist. Blasters move about very little, but the helmet should be light in weight and the window or port which affords vision should be large and correctly placed. If the helmet is too small, a large volume of air must be supplied to prevent an undesirable decrease in the pressure within the helmet when the wearer inspires. The volume of air supplied to a helmet should be sufficient to provide a continuous leakage outward. Some helmets require only about 100 liters per minute; others require twice this amount. The air should be wasted through the collar or down around the neck and out through the clothing. Collars should be permeable to air to eliminate the possibility of building up a dangerous pressure within the helmet.

It is as illogical t0 recommend the same respirator for all purposes as {5 to expect to find a respirator specifically designed f0r each different operation. No worker would use the gauie respirator for hay-fever prevention that he would ffear if he were exposed to a dangerous concentration 0f quartz. In the selection of the proper respirator for aoy particular operation, the buyer should specify the conditions as fully as possible when asking for recomjnendations from respirator manufacturers or from the jj. S. Bureau of Mines. (4) Care and Maintenance of Respirators Because the use of respirators, compared to otheT methods of dust control, is inexpensive, little or no thought is given to their maintenance. Only too fre quently good respirators are purchased, distributed carefully, and then forgotten, and in a short time they arejdirty and function ineffectively. The respirator will soon become defective if it is not properly maintained and will fail to give the necessary protection, even if it is worn correctly and continu ously. A defective respirator, moreover, is worse than none because the wearer is given a false feeling of security and will not exercise the precaution which he irould take if he had no respirator. Individual and central maintenance are the two gen eral systems of respirator maintenance in use today. In jthe individual maintenance system, the care and upkeep of the respirator is left to the user, who must wash, sterilize, and repair the respirator. In the cen tral maintenance system, all respirators are assembled at one central point for cleaning and repairing.- The central maintenance system usually is worked out somewhat as follows. Each worker who needs respiratory protection is supplied with two respirators which are marked with the employment number of the user by stamping the number on metal parts, riveting metal number plates on the rubber masks, or sewing laundry tabs on the headbands. When he goes to work in the morning, the worker passes by a row . of pigeon holes in one of which (indicated by his -employment number) he finds a clean and well-kept respirator. At the1 close of the shift, he again places the dirty respirator|in the pigeonhole. All of the dirty respirators are collected by one man who cleans and repairs them in a room laid out for this purpose. One respirator per worker is sufficient if the maintenance is carried out between shifts. Two respirators usually are supplied, however, and the repairs and cleaning are done by one man on the regular shift. The worker in charge of the respirator maintenance need not be a new or special worker. He may be the man in charge of the stock room or any individual whose work will permit. The main tenance of respirators may frequently be combined with that of such equipment as goggles and protective bats. In some industries where relatively few respira (1941) tors are in use, the maintenance is one of the duties of the nurse. The advantages of the central over the individual system are obvious. Each worker has a dean, wellkept respirator daily. He will object less to wearing it and will get real protection at all times. The mone tary saving effected by the increased life of the parts and decreased need for new respirators usually will more than offset the additional cost (if any) of setting up and maintaining the central system. The idea of a central maintenance bureau is not a new one. Such bureaus have been in use in a number of industries for several years. The results produced are remarkable, as evidenced by the condition of the respirators and the apparent satisfaction of the users. Respirator maintenance usually consists of deaning, sterilizing, and repairing. Effective methods of clean ing and sterilizing are (1) wash in warm water with a brush and soap; (2) immerse for ten minutes in a solu tion of formalin, made by placing 1 part of 40% for maldehyde solution into 9 parts of water; (3) dip in a 3% solution of carbolic add, a 2% solution of lysol, or a 70% solution of denatured alcohol; or (4) subject the respirator to sterilization by a moist atmosphere of an tiseptic gas, preferably formaldehyde, for a period of 10 minutes at room temperature. After following any one of these procedures, the respirator should be rinsed with water and hung up to dry. The filters, felt screens, and headbands (if elastic) must be removed before cleaning or sterilizing the respirator. Many dust respirators employ so-called "long-life" filters which are intended to be used over and over. Such filters are cleaned by blowing the dirt or dust off with compressed air, by brushing the surface, or by tapping the filter. If the filters are moist, they must be dried before the dust can be removed effectively. The filters may be dipped in a dry-cleaning solution for a short time to remove grease and the like. This process, however, should be carried out only infrequently be cause it decreases the life of the filter. VI. Bureau of Mines Approval Dust respirators are tested and approved by the U. S. Bureau of Mines under. Schedule No. 21 entitled "Procedure for Testing Filter-Type Dust, Fume, and Mist Respirators for Permissibility," and supplied-air respirators are tested and approved under schedule No. 19A entitled "Procedure for Testing Supplied-Air Respirators for Permissibility." The only important difference between the air-line respirator and the abrasive blasting helmet is that the latter provides protection to the face and head of the wearer from the rebounding abrasive. Seven supplied-air respirators of this type are ap proved; two are air-line respirators and five are abra sive blasting helmets. The U. S. Bureau of Mines, through these approval schedules, has done a great deal to raise the standards of the respiratory protective devices manufactured in the United States and has been of great service to industry in the selection of the proper devices.
