| English abstract | The aim of this study was to feature the solid airborne dust generated from the mechanic processing of agglomerated wood particleboard in order to minimize the risk of occupational exposing that the workers could be subjected to. As analyzing tools there were used solid airborne analyzing rules and methods regulated by world known regulatory agencies: the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH), the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and Fundação Jorge Duprat Figueiredo de Segurança e Medicina do Trabalho (FUNDACENTRO). This way the solid particulate from the agglomerated had been characterized as potentially toxic and it could induce occupational diseases in the workers exposed to it for a long period of time |
| Portuguese abstract | Este estudo buscou caracterizar o particulado sólido proveniente de painéis de madeira aglomerada, visando minimizar a exposição ocupacional sofrida pelos trabalhadores do setor de base florestal. Para tanto, foram utilizados métodos de análise regulamentados por órgãos normatizadores, como a American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH), a National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), a Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), a American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) e a Fundação Jorge Duprat Figueiredo de Segurança e Medicina do Trabalho (FUNDACENTRO). Os resultados demonstraram que o particulado sólido do aglomerado é um material potencialmente tóxico e passível de desenvolver doenças ocupacionais nos trabalhadores expostos por longo período de tempo |
