  • Emission Load of Car Service Interiors
    Vol. 62, 2016 (3): 122–128 Res. Agr. Eng. doi: 10.17221/5/2015-RAE Emission load of car service interiors I. Vitázek1, D. Michalíková1, B. Vitázková2, J. Klúčik1 1Department of Transport and Handling, Faculty of Engineering, Slovak University of Agriculture in Nitra, Nitra, Slovak Republic 2Department of Machines and Production Systems, Faculty of Engineering, Slovak University of Agriculture in Nitra, Nitra, Slovak Republic Abstract Vitázek I., Michalíková D., Vitázková B., Klúčik J. (2016): Emission load of car service interiors. Res. Agr. Eng., 62: 122–128. Car service centres are specific in terms of production of pollutants. The aim of the paper is to assess the quality of indoor environment of car service interiors with respect to the safe range of oxocarbon emission limits, concentration of gaseous and solid aerosols of selected chemical pollutants and occupational noise exposure. Measurements of concen- tration and exposure time indicated that the permitted limits were kept. CO concentration reached values in the range from 0 to 10 ppm, CO2 concentration was observed in the range from 493 to 967 ppm. Concentration of solid aerosol of polyester bitumen reached the maximum value of 0.37 mg/m3, while for gaseous aerosol (e.g. toluene) it equalled 8.114 mg/m3. Measurements of chemical factors were carried out and evaluated by companies with appropriate accredi- tation. Occupational Exposure Limits (OELs) were higher in case of all selected substances. OEL was not demonstrably exceeded at any chemical factor. Noise emissions approached the limit values; therefore, hearing protection is required. Keywords: indoor environment; gaseous emissions; chemical factor; emission limits; noise When undertaking the occupation, time spent in climate of workplaces, residential premises and the workplace may add up to more than a half of the other spaces.

  • Is Selenium a Metal, Non-Metal Or Metalloid?
    Is Selenium a metal, non-metal or metalloid? Abstract Is selenium(Se) a metal, non-metal, or a metalloid? There are various public opinions circulating around it. Since a long time from now, there are a lot of voices discussing this. Even until now, there is still no consensus about it. So, in this project, we are trying to find out whether selenium is a non-metal, metal or metalloids base on its physical and chemical properties which could be studied in the secondary school combining with the other information from the internet. Principles and hypothesis Studied from the secondary school chemistry, the general properties of metals include being good conductors of heat and electricity, having high melting and boiling points. Non-metals generally have a lower melting point and boiling point than metals and they being poor conductors of heat and electricity, etc. And the physical properties of metalloids are having extremely high melting/ boiling point, and having fair electrical conductivity. On the other hand, the oxides of metal are generally basic whereas the oxide of non-metals and metalloids are generally acidic. We will define selenium’s chemical category based on the above properties. Besides, we would like to introduce the concept of displacement reaction in studying the chemical properties of the chalcogens(e.g. sulphur(S) and selenium(Se)), especially selenium such rarely mentioned element. We can assume selenium is a metal if selenium could displace a metal oxide or a metal could displace selenium (IV) oxide. If selenium is a non-metal, its oxide could be displaced by sulphur which is supposed to be more reactive than selenium in the chalcogen group.

  • Draft Screening Assessment Thallium and Its Compounds Environment
    Draft Screening Assessment Thallium and its compounds Environment and Climate Change Canada Health Canada September 2020 Synopsis Pursuant to section 68 and 74 of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 (CEPA), the Minister of the Environment and the Minister of Health have conducted a screening assessment of thallium and its compounds. The scope of this assessment is on the thallium moiety. This assessment considers all thallium-containing substances, that may release thallium as well as thallium in its elemental form, and thallium released in the environment in dissolved, solid or particulate forms. This includes three thallium- containing substances on the Domestic Substances List (DSL) identified as priorities for assessment as they met categorization criteria under subsection 73(1) of CEPA or were considered a priority on the basis of other ecological concerns, and two thallium- containing substances that were identified for further consideration following prioritization of the Revised In Commerce List (R-ICL). The Chemical Abstracts Service Registry Numbers (CAS RN1), their DSL or R-ICL names and their common names are listed in the table below. Thallium-containing substances identified as priorities for assessment CAS RN DSL or R-ICL name Common name 7440-28-0 a Thallium Thallium 563-68-8 Acetic acid, thallium(1++) salt Thallium(I) acetate 7791-12-0 Thallium chloride Thallium chloride 10031-59-1 b Sulfuric acid, thallium(1+) salt (1:?) Thallium(I) sulfate 55172-29-7 b Thallium chloride (201TlCl) 201TlCl a This substance was not identified under subsection 73(1) of CEPA but was included in this assessment as it is highly reactive when exposed to moisture in air and releases thallium ions under environmental conditions.
