Title Recommendations for the ventilation of lead accumulator plate manufacturing plants
Original title Rekomendacii po ventiljacii osnovnyh cehov zavodov svincovyh akkumuljatorov [in Russian]
Bibliographic information 1973, No.83, p.18-21. Illus. 5 ref.
Abstract Description of enclosures and exhaust systems on lead-melting tanks and accumulator-plate casting machines and conveyors. Various methods of local exhaust to eliminate lead aerosols and dust, hydrocarbons and ammonia are tabulated, together with the required air speed at the exhaust inlet. An equation is given for determining the air volume required for the dilution ventilation of accumulator stores with high sulfuric-acid concentrations. Special air-inlet arrangements are recommended for rooms where hydrogen may accumulate and form explosive atmospheres.
