Many use batch mixing and other processes that create dangerous dusts. When operators handle these materials or&nbsp;convey or dump them into processing equipment, the dust becomes airborne and endangers air quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Airborne chemical dusts can be hazardous to workers, equipment, manufacturing plants, and the environment. They can be toxic as well as combustible. In addition, airborne dusts can cross-contaminate products, putting the end users of those products at risk and exposing manufacturers to liabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OSHA recommends that facilities maintain workplace air quality through \u201cengineering and work practice controls\u201d where feasible. Dust collection systems are the most cost-effective way to improve air quality in a chemical manufacturing or processing facility. They work around the clock, using advanced filtration technology to safely capture and contain airborne dust and contaminants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Camfil APC\u2019s premium-quality dust collectors cost-effectively collect many types of chemical dust, including toxic dusts, combustible dusts, cross contaminant dusts, and nuisance dust. They ensure that all employees can work safely in facilities where toxic chemical dusts&nbsp;are present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why proper chemical dust collection matters<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Save time, money and energy on dust collection<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Protect people, property and environment from dust hazards<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prevent cross contamination<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Satisfy&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/camfilapc.com\/services\/regulation-compliance\/\">compliance with OSHA, NFPA and EPA<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;autoclose&quot;: false, &quot;accordionItems&quot;: [] }\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/accordion\" role=\"group\" class=\"wp-block-accordion is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-is-layout-flow\" style=\"border-width:1px;margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--l);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--l)\">\n<div data-wp-class--is-open=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;id&quot;: &quot;accordion-item-1&quot;, &quot;openByDefault&quot;: false }\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initAccordionItems\" data-wp-on-window--hashchange=\"callbacks.hashChange\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-item is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-item-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading has-l-font-size\"><button aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-item-1-panel\" data-wp-bind--aria-expanded=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.toggle\" data-wp-on--keydown=\"actions.handleKeyDown\" id=\"accordion-item-1\" type=\"button\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle\" style=\"padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m)\"><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-title\">Toxic Dusts: OSHA and EPA regulations<\/span><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">+<\/span><\/button><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div inert aria-labelledby=\"accordion-item-1\" data-wp-bind--inert=\"!state.isOpen\" id=\"accordion-item-1-panel\" role=\"region\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-panel is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-panel-is-layout-flow\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m)\">\n<p>Chemical dusts are dangerous in the workplace when they have high concentrations of elements like crystalline silica that are toxic in the body at certain concentrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some dusts simply react badly with skin and eyes. Other chemical dusts are fine particles that can travel deep into the body, damaging the kidneys, lungs, brain, intestines, and prostate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For these reasons, OSHA now regulates toxic dusts&nbsp;and failure to comply can lead to serious fines and other legal problems. For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Worker exposure to mineral elements like silica dust causes respiratory problems, from chronic bronchitis to lung cancer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Worker exposure to metallic elements, such as cadmium, beryllium, arsenic, chromium, and lead, causes neurological, gastrointestinal and reproductive damage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>OSHA has established permissible exposure limits (PELs) for chemical substances that endanger workers. Here are some examples of the PELs for various chemical dusts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Cadmium: 5 \u00b5g\/m3<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Zinc oxide: 15 mg\/m3<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chromium: 5 \u00b5g\/m3<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Iron oxide: 15 mg\/m3<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cobalt: 1 mg\/m3<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>All Camfil APC dust collectors safely contain toxic dusts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;autoclose&quot;: false, &quot;accordionItems&quot;: [] }\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/accordion\" role=\"group\" class=\"wp-block-accordion is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-is-layout-flow\" style=\"border-width:1px;margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--l);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--l)\">\n<div data-wp-class--is-open=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;id&quot;: &quot;accordion-item-2&quot;, &quot;openByDefault&quot;: false }\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initAccordionItems\" data-wp-on-window--hashchange=\"callbacks.hashChange\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-item is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-item-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading has-l-font-size\"><button aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-item-2-panel\" data-wp-bind--aria-expanded=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.toggle\" data-wp-on--keydown=\"actions.handleKeyDown\" id=\"accordion-item-2\" type=\"button\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle\" style=\"padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m)\"><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-title\">Combustible dusts<\/span><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">+<\/span><\/button><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div inert aria-labelledby=\"accordion-item-2\" data-wp-bind--inert=\"!state.isOpen\" id=\"accordion-item-2-panel\" role=\"region\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-panel is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-panel-is-layout-flow\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m)\">\n<p>Many chemical dusts also qualify as combustible dusts, including ascorbic acid, calcium acetate, dextrin, lactose and sodium ascorbate. These chemical dusts can accumulate on surfaces, where any spark or flame can ignite them, causing a fire or explosion. Common ignition sources are kilns or welding flame, but it can even be a lit match or cigarette.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Combustible dust explosions threaten workers and capital assets like buildings and equipment. A powerful dust explosion can injure or even kill plant workers and destroy buildings and equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dust collectors minimize the amount of combustible dust that can collect on floors and other surfaces, and they contain chemical dust in one area. But the dust collectors themselves can be a fire or explosion hazard if they are designed incorrectly or not equipped with controls that prevent deflagration and contain explosions. These controls include fire retardant cartridges, sprinkler connections, explosion vents, suppression systems, and backdraft dampers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All Camfil APC dust collectors safely contain combustible dusts and are equipped with deflagration controls.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;autoclose&quot;: false, &quot;accordionItems&quot;: [] }\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/accordion\" role=\"group\" class=\"wp-block-accordion is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-is-layout-flow\" style=\"border-width:1px;margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--l);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--l)\">\n<div data-wp-class--is-open=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;id&quot;: &quot;accordion-item-3&quot;, &quot;openByDefault&quot;: false }\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initAccordionItems\" data-wp-on-window--hashchange=\"callbacks.hashChange\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-item is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-item-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading has-l-font-size\"><button aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-item-3-panel\" data-wp-bind--aria-expanded=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.toggle\" data-wp-on--keydown=\"actions.handleKeyDown\" id=\"accordion-item-3\" type=\"button\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle\" style=\"padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m)\"><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-title\">Cross-contaminent dusts<\/span><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">+<\/span><\/button><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div inert aria-labelledby=\"accordion-item-3\" data-wp-bind--inert=\"!state.isOpen\" id=\"accordion-item-3-panel\" role=\"region\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-panel is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-panel-is-layout-flow\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m)\">\n<p>Toxic dust can also cross-contaminate other chemical materials in the plant, which can reduce product quality and safety. For this reason, it is preferable to capture chemical fumes or dust at their source to prevent the dust from expanding throughout the plant. This is accomplished by incorporating a hood or extraction arm into the chemical process machinery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Source capture is extremely effective, and it requires the least energy and capital investment. However it is captured, dust and fumes should be isolated from the rest of the facility and contained in a specific area. For example, a portioned area can be kept under negative pressure. The extracted air is either drawn directly into a local collector or ducted to a dust or mist collector located remotely. In some cases, the filtered air can be safely returned back into the facility to create a push-pull airflow pattern to improve contaminant control. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A chemical manufacturing facility may also require special options or accessories to improve the safety and reliability of the system. Bag-in\/bag-out filters and collection drum options can be used to limit exposure and cross-contamination of collected material when performing filter and dust removal maintenance. Additional features, such as duct and equipment clean-out doors, stainless steel construction, safety after filters (ASHRAE, HEPA) and FDA compliant paint, are also commonly utilized with the air filtration unit based on contaminant properties. All Camfil APC dust collectors safely contain cross-contaminants.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;autoclose&quot;: false, &quot;accordionItems&quot;: [] }\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/accordion\" role=\"group\" class=\"wp-block-accordion is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-is-layout-flow\" style=\"border-width:1px;margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--l);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--l)\">\n<div data-wp-class--is-open=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;id&quot;: &quot;accordion-item-4&quot;, &quot;openByDefault&quot;: false }\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initAccordionItems\" data-wp-on-window--hashchange=\"callbacks.hashChange\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-item is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-item-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading has-l-font-size\"><button aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-item-4-panel\" data-wp-bind--aria-expanded=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.toggle\" data-wp-on--keydown=\"actions.handleKeyDown\" id=\"accordion-item-4\" type=\"button\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle\" style=\"padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m)\"><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-title\">Nuisance dusts<\/span><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">+<\/span><\/button><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div inert aria-labelledby=\"accordion-item-4\" data-wp-bind--inert=\"!state.isOpen\" id=\"accordion-item-4-panel\" role=\"region\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-panel is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-panel-is-layout-flow\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m)\">\n<p>Airborne dust can also be a major housekeeping problem because it eventually settles on floors and surfaces.
