Because of their ability to measure short-term fluctuations, photometers are increasingly used for real-time aerosol characterization in workplace atmospheres. Despite the need for a custom calibration factor to obtain more accurate mass…

By spraying judiciously placed drops of water, you can reduce dust emissions at source or purify polluted air. But the use of this preventive measure cannot be improvised: it requires careful design to be truly effective, and can give rise to numerous…

Cascade impactors make it possible to collect particles according to their aerodynamic diameter and therefore to determine, by gravimetric analysis, the mass particle size distribution of aerosols over wide size ranges (submicron to micrometric…

For some years, the characterization of workers' exposure to airborne metallic ultrafine particles (UFP) has been an increasing issue. Many industrial processes may generate UFP, which are characterized by constituent particle diameter less…

For some years, the characterization of workers' exposure to airborne metallic ultrafine particles (UFP) has been an increasing issue because of their effects on health, and as many activities are potentially concerned (welding, oxycutting, 3D…

This method describes the active sampling with a Mini-MOUDI 135-8 cascade impactor and the analysis by gravimetry and/or plasma emission spectrometry of the substance(s): Metals and metalloids"
