This volume provides an overview
of the determinants of the release of and exposure to airborne nanoparticles. Whether
intentionally manufactured or unintentionally generated during industrial processes,
the release of nanoparticles can result in significant worker exposure, which
must be dealt with adequately by means of dedicated risk assessments to ensure
workplace health and safety. The book extensively discusses a number of
measurement and modelling strategies available for this purpose. It also reviews
the health hazardous potential of nano-sized particles and fibres, and follows the
flow of engineered nanomaterials from production and use to disposal and the
environment. It appeals to a wide readership, from specialists already working
in the field to newcomers aiming to gain insights into this topic.
