Smelters & Refineries

The smelting process releases harmful substances that can have immediate and long-term health consequences if inhaled excessively. The primary metals industry faces various chemical hazards, including metal dust, fumes, silica, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and gases like hydrogen fluoride, carbon monoxide, phenol, and formaldehyde. Continuous exposure to these pollutants can lead to chronic diseases and irritate the eyes, nose, and throat. 

Prioritizing safety measures, such as respiratory protection and a reliable fume and dust extraction system, is crucial in safeguarding workers from airborne contaminants and extreme heat.
