| Resumen |
By studying the filter capacity and service life of respiratory protective cartridges, the IRSST demonstrated in earlier work that in the case of mixtures of pollutants, the use of a mask with saturated cartridges can be more dangerous than no mask at all. Researchers have developed a software that estimates the service life of chemical cartridges that filter the vapours of 145 solvents, most of which are mentioned in the Regulation concerning occupational health and safety. This project also led to the development of a computer tool used to establish a replacement sequence for filter cartridges. |
