| Resumen |
The results of a study of contamination by airborne asbestos fibres on board a number of Italian ferries are presented. Asbestos is widely used throughout the ships as fire and soundproofing insulation. Samples taken before, during and after removal of the insulation in areas of the ship outside the asbestos removal worksite gave concentration levels that were similar to those observed in other indoor environments (buildings), varying according to the sample location and the condition of the insulation material. The results are discussed taking into consideration the fact that a ship is also a living environment for crew and passengers. |
