A Detailed Investigation of Particulate Dispersion from Kerman Cement Plant
The aim of this study was to investigate the particulate dispersion from Kerman Cement Plant. The upwind – downwind method was used to measure particle concentration and a cascade impactor was applied to determine particle size distribution. An Eulerian model, Gaussian plume model and an artificial neural network have been used to compute and predict concentration of PM10 from Ke...
متن کاملChildhood Lead Exposure from Battery Recycling in Vietnam
BACKGROUND Battery recycling facilities in developing countries can cause community lead exposure. OBJECTIVE To evaluate child lead exposure in a Vietnam battery recycling craft village after efforts to shift home-based recycling outside the village. METHODS This cross-sectional study evaluated 109 children in Dong Mai village, using blood lead level (BLL) measurement, parent interview, and...
متن کاملThe Source of Airborne Lead: Recycling Pb-Contaminated Soils
Starting in the 1970s, federal regulatory control and eventual elimination of lead-based “antiknock” additives in gasoline decreased the level of airborne Pb in the USA by two orders-ofmagnitude [1]. Blood lead levels of the USA population decreased correspondingly [2,3]. Despite this dramatic improvement in both exposure risk and body burden of Pb, the sources and health threat of the low leve...
متن کاملMass Lead Intoxication from Informal Used Lead-Acid Battery Recycling in Dakar, Senegal
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Between November 2007 and March 2008, 18 children died from a rapidly progressive central nervous system disease of unexplained origin in a community involved in the recycling of used lead-acid batteries (ULAB) in the suburbs of Dakar, Senegal. We investigated the cause of these deaths. METHODS Because autopsies were not possible, the investigation centered on clinic...
متن کاملPast, present and future of lead battery recycling
Even today, the use of Lead-acid batteries is projected for the next 50 years. On the other hand, the legislative trend concerning human health and the environment makes evident the need for future innovation on recycling technologies. For this reason, the entire world is working, in the short term, in optimizing and adapting technologies, which today we consider BAT (Best Available Technologie...
