“Further risk assessment methods” for Hazardous Manual Tasks

Risk assessment requires both risk analysis and risk evaluation ie, comparing the results of risk analysis with risk criteria to determine acceptability. The Safework Australia Hazardous Manual Tasks Code of Practice, Appendix F, provides a list of “Further risk assessment methods“ including methods developed during a research project which evaluated a participative ergonomics program. This com...

HAZARDOUS WASTE: TVA Spill’s Chemical Legacy

An increased international effort to reduce the incidence of malaria around the globe while reducing reliance on DDT was announced 6 May 2009 at the fourth meeting of the Conference to the Parties to the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs). With funding of more than US$70 million, the United Nations Environment Programme and the World Health Organization have launched 1...

Chemical salt reactions as algebraic hyperstructures

A salt metathesis reaction is a chemical process involving the exchange of bonds between two reacting chemical species, which results in the creation of products with similar or identical bonding affiliations. Hyperstructure theory is studied from the theoretical point of view and for its applications. In this paper, we provide some examples of hyperstructures associated with salt m...
