This book was released on 2007 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Air monitoring was performed on an aircraft deicing fluid collection system at the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CNKIA). The goal of the study was to determine employee exposure to ethylene glycol and the target compounds of decomposition as maintenance was performed on the system. The maintenance work involved performing confined space entries to repair and maintain various diversion chambers, pump stations and storage tanks used to collect and convey spent aircraft deicing fluid. The collected deicing fluid during the period of the study was primarily ethylene glycol based. The study included low flow area air sampling of selected diversion valve pits, pump stations and storage tanks for the presence of ethylene glycol as well as ethanol, formaldehyde, and acetaldehyde which are suspected end products of decomposition of ethylene glycol. The study also included the collection of weekly samples using Draeger Tubes to test for ethylene glycol. Samples were collected in the spring, summer and winter months. The results of the study revealed that the target compounds of decomposition were detected in various concentrations throughout the sample study. All results for the decomposition compounds were well below established regulatory and recommended levels. The weekly analysis for ethylene glycol revealed the potential for exposure to ethylene glycol at the diversion valves and to a lesser extent at the deicing pad pump stations during periods of heavy deicing. Ceiling limits for ethylene glycol at deicing fluid collection valves appear to be exceeded during periods of deicing fluid use greater than 750 gallons per day.

This book was released on 1995 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Technical Note documents a series of tests performed to determine the accuracy of automotive glycol antifreeze test strips when used measure to the freeze point of glycol-based deicing and anti-icing fluids. Also employed in the tests was a refractometer, the currently accepted method used to determine de/anti-icing fluid freeze points. Varying concentrations of water and de/anti-icing fluid were used to provide a variety of test freeze points. The results of the two freeze point measurement methods are compared and discussed, and a recommendation made. jg p.3.

Book excerpt: This book evaluates the risk to human health of ethylene glycol. Ethylene glycol is a colorless, odorless, sweet-tasting, relatively non-volatile liquid. It is used in the manufacture of poly-ethylene terephthalate, in natural gas processing, and as an antifreeze agent. Available data from acute poisoning cases (humans) and repeated-dose toxicity studies (experimental ani-mals), indicate that the kidney is a critical organ for the toxicity of ethylene glycol in both humans and experimental animals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People are increasingly concerned about potential environmental health hazards and often ask their physicians questions such as: "Is the tap water safe to drink?" "Is it safe to live near power lines?" Unfortunately, physicians often lack the information and training related to environmental health risks needed to answer such questions. This book discusses six competency based learning objectives for all medical school students, discusses the relevance of environmental health to specific courses and clerkships, and demonstrates how to integrate environmental health into the curriculum through published case studies, some of which are included in one of the book's three appendices. Also included is a guide on where to obtain additional information for treatment, referral, and follow-up for diseases with possible environmental and/or occupational origins.
