Are you a practicing occupational hygienist wondering how to find a substitute organic solvent that is safer to use than the hazardous one your company is using? Chapter 6 is your resource. Are you a new hygienist looking for an alternative technology as a nonventilation substitute for an existing hazard? Chapter 8 is your resource. Are you looking for an overview of ventilation? Chapters 10 and 11 are your resource? Are you an industrial hygiene student wanting to learn about local exhaust ventilation? Chapters 13 through 16 are your resource. Are you needing to learn about personal protective equipment and respirators? Chapters 21 and 22 are your resources. This new edition brings all of these topics and more right up-to-date with new material in each chapter, including new governmental regulations.

While many of the controls of airborne hazards have their origins in engineering, this author has been diligent in explaining concepts, writing equations in understandable terms, and covering the topics of non-ventilation controls, both local exhaust and general ventilation, and receiver controls at the level needed by most IHs without getting too advanced. Taken as a whole, this book provides a unique, comprehensive tool to learn the challenging yet rewarding role that industrial hygiene can play in controlling airborne chemical hazards at work.

Most chapters contain a set of practice problems with the solutions available to instructors.

    William Popendorf is an Emeritus Professor of Industrial Hygiene at Utah State University. Dr. Popendorf has taught and conducted research for over forty-five years, published more than 75 papers and book chapters on airborne and dermal hazards, has consulted with numerous industrial clients and government agencies, and been on the Board of the American Industrial Hygiene Association and the American Board of Industrial Hygiene. His broad interest has been to develop and apply predictive models (many developed in other fields) that describe how physical mechanisms cause (and can be used to control) exposures of workers to toxic chemicals, with the goal of improving the overall practice and knowledge-base of industrial hygiene.
