متن کاملLung Health Among Welders
Background: Iron and steel based industries use welding as an integral process. About two percent of the working population is engaged in some type of welding. Welding fumes consist of a wide range of complex metal oxide particles which can be deposited in all regions of the respiratory tract. Thus, welding process seems to be simple but its health implications are complex. Materials and method...
متن کاملKnowledge on the Health Effects of Welding Smoke, Use of Ppe among Electric-arc Welders in Ilorin South, North Central Nigeria
INTRODUCTION: Electric arc welding and oxy-fuel gas welding are the commonest welding technologies used in small scale industries in Nigeria. Electric arc welders are exposed to serious health hazards like exposure to welding smoke. Health effects of such exposure include metal fume fever, and increased risk of chronic diseases and cancers. Exposure to welding smoke can be minimized by use of P...
متن کاملThe effect of repeated repair welding on microstructure and mechanical properties of quenched and tempered steel A517
A517 is a low alloy high-strength steels that due to its high strength, toughness and weldability is used in ship building and submarine hulks. The welded areas of this steel often require repairs. In this study, the effect of number of welding repair on microstructure and mechanical properties of A517 steel is studied. Four samples (samples without repair, once repaired, twice repaired, and th...
