Abstract Report of a study of the dosage of chemicals into surface treatment baths, using methods of reduced occupational risk. Chapters include: the occupational health problems of manual dosage; ways of reducing risk (training, automation, protective equipment); factors influencing the consumption rate of chemicals; monitoring and control mechanisms; dosage equipment (pumps, conveyor scales, screw conveyors, mixing baths); equipment for bath parameter control (pH value, conductivity, electric current, surface tension and density measurements, ion-selecting electrodes, automatic titration equipment, colorimeters); handling equipment and facilities for manual dosage; equipment selection; examples of dosage equipment installation in specific cases (with cost shown); needs for further research.
