Abstract
Guidelines for the processes and operations in industrial ventilation are presented. The guidelines deal with abrasive- blasting; asbestos-textile manufacturing; ceramics manufacturing; cotton yarn manufacturing; foundry operations; grinding, polishing, and buffing; kitchen operations; laboratory operations; handling of materials; metal machining and working; open-surface tank operations; service garage operations; spray-finishing and welding. Each guideline is accompanied by a separate discussion and justification section. The guidelines prescribe specific design criteria for ventilation, but do not preclude the use of alternative engineering controls.
