10. Preferably, the collector bags from the dust collectors should be outside of the plant building walls. If this ;a not prac tical, the room containing the collector bags should be dust ti ght.
Action taken:
With the recent comple ti on of experimental runs on the corbe3tos fibe rise r, we have changed the duct work of existing aj/aiema so that the in terior dust collection bag3 can be eliminated along with the corbestos fi berizer and the Victopac fi berizer.
11. Forced exhaust and input air system should be provided for the room containing the dust collector bags.
Action taken: The interior dust collector bags have been elim i noted.
12. The method of securing the burlap bage to the filler spout of the bagging facility should be inspected to determine if a more foolproof method of securing the bags can be found to eliminate the hazard. of excessive dust when such bags pull loose from the spout during the filling opera ti on.
Action taken:
An investigation revealed that no real problem occurred during the bagging operation only when the bags are removed does some fiber fall free. This will always occur and with the other precautions which have been taken this little bit should be no hazard.
13. Adequate humidity control for the Bagger Room should be pro vided to maintain as low a level of dust suspended in air as possible.
Action taken:
As with the similar recommendation for the Beater Room, (item 3) it is felt that no appre ciable improvement will be made by adding hu midity controls in this area. There are adequated dust collecting facilities available to handle the dust generated.
14. Provision should be made so that the bagger can control the filling spout in the event that the bag 3hould pull loose from the filling spout during filling.
