Developing tools for aiding skin protection EL2015-001 | 2015

Skin protection is essential, but the efficacy of protective materials is limited. No polymer protective material constitutes a universal rampart against all chemical substances. In the working world, users of chemicals and occupational safety…
Separating out ultrafine particles generated by metal-working processes ET2013-004 | 2013
Advantages and limitations of wet scrubbing in industrial hygiene EL2014-015 | 2014

In industrial effluent or in workplace atmospheres, it is frequent to observe the combined presence of gaseous and of particulate pollutants. For example, sectors such as waste electrical and electronic equipment treatment, composting, or wood…
Performance of filter and isolator Respiratory Protective Devices in protecting against nanoparticles ET2013-006 | 2013

Exposure to nanoparticles, be they manufactured or unintentional, concerns a growing population of workers. The specificities of these ultrafine particles require targeted study of performance of the collective and personal protective…
Processes for removing traces of formaldehyde from indoor air ET2012-002 | 2012

Outline of reasons and objectives
In France, the number of workers exposed to formaldehyde totals 190,000 spread across over one hundred professions. The need to provide prevention solutions for reducing the exposure of workers exposed to formaldehyde…
Waste treatment and recycling sector for photovoltaic panels - An investigative preparatory study EL2014-007 | 2014

Outline of reasons and objectives
The fact that photovoltaic panels have been included within the scope of application of the European Directive on WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) means that questions need to be asked about…
Reduction at source of PAHs during pyrolysis operations ET2014-004 | 2014

Polycyclic Aromatic Hyrocarbons (PAHs) are chemical compounds that are sometimes highly toxic, or indeed that are considered by some to be proved carcinogens. A variety of sectors of activity cause PAH emissions: incineration, pyrolysis, diesel…
Processes for purifying workplace air that is contaminated with microorganisms: an investigative preparatory study on the technical solutions of separation and disinfection ET2014-002 | 2014

Outline of reasons and objectives
Exposure to bioaerosols (bacteria, moulds, and sub-products or fragments of micro-organisms) present in the air at workstations has been established in numerous occupational sectors. In certain employees…
Reducing emissions of carbon particles, nitrogen oxides, and carbon monoxide for occupational health – Applications to diesel engine emissions in confined spaces ET2015-001 | 2015

In France, nearly 800,000 employees are potentially exposed to diesel fumes, which have been identified as the primary source of exposure to a carcinogenic. Prevention of exposure to this pollutant in testing centres for testing vehicle safety…
Mapping of sectors and processes generating Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) ( EL2012-020 | 2012

Outline of reasons and objectives
Recent work has highlighted new activities such as carbon densification and repairing facilities covered with pitch-based coatings, and during which occupational exposure to Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons…
