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…

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…

Low-pressure carburizing is a heat treatment process used to harden surface steel by enriching the metal with carbon atoms coming from pyrolysis of hydrocarbons. Unfortunately, at the same time, other species, considered to be proved to be carcinogenic…

Hydrocarbon pyrolysis in low-pressure gas carburizing conditions drives to gas phase reactions which lead to the production of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs). These PAHs are afterwards responsible for soot formation. The aim of the…

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…

The hydrocarbon pyrolysis is widely used in many engineering applications like synthesis of carbon nanotubes in a chemical vapour deposition, pyrocarbon by depositing on carbon fibers and vacuum gas carburizing of steel. However, during these…
