Welding fumes
Unhealthy gases

Unhealthy gases

Various sectors have to deal with unhealthy gases. Examples include reaction gases during welding, the chemical smell of paint and chlorine in hairdressing salons, but also body odours. In health and care facilities, various odors and chemicals such as disinfectants are released into the air via staff, patients and work processes.

Welding and related processes release a mixture of gases, vapors and particles, also known as welding fumes. It partly consists of (ultra) particulate matter. Think of grinding, ablation, gouging, sanding and thermal cutting. The precise composition of the welding fumes depends on the substrate, filler material and welding technique. The employer is obliged to limit the release of welding fumes as much as possible.

Odour nuisance

What is the effect of odour nuisance?

Smell can cause various health effects: (serious) nuisance, stress-related physical health complaints and disruption of behavior and activities. Examples of health complaints are headache, nausea irritation to the eyes and respiratory tract. In addition, the Health Council is increasingly paying attention to the health hazards of Ethylene Oxide and its presence in professional life. Occupational exposure to this increases the risk of cancer.

Acute exposure to welding fumes and gases can cause irritation to the eyes, nose and throat, dizziness and nausea. Long-term exposure can cause lung damage and various types of cancer. That is why odor control is essential in the case of odor nuisance.
