Resumen Information on the use of dust extraction equipment for protecting workers in the ceramics industry against the inhalation hazard of fine dust (<5µm) with a silica or lead content. It is explained that there are a number of simple points of design and operation which make all the difference between good and bad dust extraction and these points are considered under the following headings: application of exhaust draught to the dust source; arrangement of ducting to carry away the dusty air; disposal of dust and dusty air; maintenance and testing of exhaust ventilating plant; suggested engineering standards for dust extraction plants (hoods and exhaust openings, metallic and non-metallic ducts, dust collectors, inspection and testing); specifications of exhaust hoods already recommended by the Joint Standing Committee; notes on emission from, and collection efficiency of, dust collectors.
