Air Sampling During NPP Accident
There has been considerable interest recently generated regarding emergency air sampling protocols as a result of the Fukushima accident in Japan. A major concern involving air sampling requirements is the accurate determination of gaseous-radioactive iodine species emitted from the NPP to the environment as a result of an accident. During normal NPP operation gaseous radioactive iodine ...

Worker Exposure to Beryllium Health Hazards – New Regulations are HERE!
Beryllium Regulations To Lower Worker Exposure Recently OSHA has put new Beryllium Regulations in effect to lower worker exposure levels. Based on information on the health hazards of worker Beryllium exposure, OSHA has lowered the allowable exposure level by a factor of 10—from 2 ug/m3 to 0.2 ug/m3—and create a separate standard for Beryllium (29 CFR 1910.1024). There are a variety ...

Testing/Sampling and Analysis for Beryllium
OSHA has issued the a new Permissible Exposure Level (PEL) for Beryllium. The new PEL will reduce the 8-hour time weighted average exposure from 2 micrograms per cubic meter of air (2 ug/m3) to 0.2 ug/m3—a ten-fold reduction! and an action level of 0.1 ug/m3. A 15 minute STEL is proposed at 2 ug/m3. Further, OSHA intends to develop a complete standard for Beryllium identified as 29 CFR ...

A Guide to Gas Detector Tubes. Your Questions Answered
Gas detector tubes are easy to use, are low cost, and the method is intrinsically safe, allowing it to be deployed in all industries. Because detector tubes don’t require calibration, users see the benefits of this technology over electronic gas detectors due to their ease of use. Gas detector tubes are most effective as a reference device for conducting spot checks, which gives an idea of ...
