MEDICAL AND ECOLOGICAL MONITORING AND THE REFRACTORY PRODUCTION’S TOXIC DUST CONTROL

Abstract

The toxicological effect of refractory production’s dust  on the human organism is regarded in the article as well as the disease associated with  this  case — the  pneumoconiosis, which   is   conditioned  by   the   inhaling  of  considerable amount (up  till  10 %)  of  free   silica   dioxide   and   which causes silicosis and  lung  cancer. The preliminary diagnostic clinic  for the  cancer and  silicosis is essentially complicated by  MgO,  FeO,  Fe₂O3,   Al₂O₃  presence in  the  dust, which  is confirmed by the results of medical and ecological monitoring of the situation. The legislative, organizational, technical economical and  engineering measures are  examined  in the  article which  could  become the  viable  alternative  to  the   oncology diseases  spreading.  The  ingenious method to provide the  air  of modern quality standards in the  refractory production is offered.
