Abstract: (37 Views)
Exposure to crystalline silica exposes a person to obstructive airway and parenchymal lung diseases, the most important of which is silicosis. Silicosis is mainly an occupational disease that occurs due to long-term exposure to free crystalline silica in silica-related work environments. Environmental exposure to silica may also occur through the ambient air, and this is very important in cities and villages near workshops and factories that are dispersed by silica due to their activities. Several studies in recent years have reported exposure to free crystalline silica in the open air around factories and related silica-related industries. This study emphasizes the importance and necessity of developing standards related to the release of free crystalline silica in the open air around related industries as an environmental pollutant.
