This paper discusses a specific research program started on February 4, 1999 (and with some continuing to date) in AMERICAN laboratories to evaluate the effects of long-term, soaking exposure of commonly supplied sewer pipe linings to very low pH sulfuric acid. Many other researchers have shown ...
At nitrogen gas exposures to very high concentrations for short periods of time, the onset of symptoms is very sudden and marked. Convulsions, unconsciousness, and respiratory arrest occur within a short time and death may follow rapidly. Diagnosis of Nitrogen Oxide Gas Exposure The diagnosis is m...
Soil, as a primary repository of plastic debris, faces an escalating influx of microplastics. Microplastics have the potential to decrease soil bulk densit
Gaseous leaks from pipes (natural gas pipes as an example), Gases evaporated from pools exposed to open atmosphere (hydrocarbon spillages and sewer water as examples), Agro-industrial open burning. These authorities want to use said models to (i) assess the exposure to air pollutants of the...
2016). Recent evaluations of the biological impact of THS aerosol have shown its reduced exposure effects relative to the smoke of a reference cigarette on the respiratory and cardiovascular systems in vivo and in vitro (van der Toorn et al. 2015a; Phillips et al. 2016, 2019; Poussin et ...
MPs can be found in food because of environmental pollution but also, there is a growing interest in the possibility of release/leakage of MPs from food packaging materials, such as tea bags, bottles etc. MPs internalised by plants are another potential source of human exposure. The true amo...
Planting trees and restoring wetlands can increase the capacity of sewer systems because more of the rainwater can be absorbed into the ground and tree roots before reaching the sewers.One of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals is to ensure that everyone in the world has access to toilet ...
Another major health concern is the musculoskeletal disorder such as the osteoarthritis. Exposure to infections in the sewer is also common due to the numerous bacteria residing in the sewers. The common infection is the Leptospirosis which is an occupational disease in people who are in contact wi...

Carbon monoxide was analyzed continuously by nondispersive infrared photometry of the gas/vapor phase using a carbon monoxide meter (Ultramat 6E, Siemens N.V., Brussels, Belgium) placed in the pipe leading to the exposure chamber. Guaiacol concentration was determined by gas chromatography–mass spec...
