  • Occupational Risk Resulting from Exposure to Mineral Wool When
    REVIEW PAPER International Journal of Occupational Medicine and Environmental Health 2020;33(6):757 – 769 https://doi.org/10.13075/ijomeh.1896.01637 OCCUPATIONAL RISK RESULTING FROM EXPOSURE TO MINERAL WOOL WHEN INSTALLING INSULATION IN BUILDINGS MAŁGORZATA KUPCZEWSKA-DOBECKA, KATARZYNA KONIECZKO, and SŁAWOMIR CZERCZAK Nofer Institute of Occupational Medicine, Łódź, Poland Department of Chemical Safety Abstract Mineral wool is widely used for thermal and sound insulation. The subject of the study is to identify hazards for employees resulting from exposure to mineral wool, when it is used to insulate buildings, and to assess the risk arising from this exposure. When installing mineral wool insulation, respi- rable mineral fibers, dust, and volatile organic compounds may pose a hazard at workplaces. Based on the results of concentration measurements, it was assessed that the probability of adverse health effects related to the work of insulation installers, resulting from exposure to mineral wool fibers, is low, but for dust associated with exposure, an average health risk was estimated. An additional threat may be the sensitizing effect of substances used as binders and additives improving the utility properties of mineral wool, for example, phenol formaldehyde resins. The paper also contains some information on the labeling of mineral wool; this is very important because the label allows downstream users to recognize mineral wools, the compo- sition and properties of which cause that they are not classified as carcinogens.

Conserve energy by reducing heat loss or gain. 2. Control surface temperatures for personnel protection and comfort. 3. Facilitate temperature control of process. 4. Prevent vapour flow and water condensation on cold surfaces. 5. Increase operating efficiency of heating/ventilating/cooling, plumbing, steam, process and power systems found in commercial and industrial installations. 6. Prevent or reduce damage to equipment from exposure to fire or corrosive atmospheres. 7. Assist mechanical systems in meeting criteria in food and cosmetic plants. 8. Reduce emissions of pollutants to the atmosphere. The temperature range within which the term "thermal insulation" will apply, is from -75°C to 815°C. All applications below -75°C are termed "cryogenic", and those above 815°C are termed "refractory". Thermal insulation is further divided into three general application temperature ranges as follows: A. LOW TEMPERATURE THERMAL INSULATION 1.

  • Background Report, AP-42, Vol. I, SECTION 11.18 Mineral Wool
    EMISSION FACTOR DOCUMENTATION FOR AP-42 SECTION 11.18 (Formerly 8.16) Mineral Wool Manufacturing 1. INTRODUCTION The document Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors (AP-42) has been published by the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) since 1972. Supplements to AP-42 have been routinely published to add new emission source categories and to update existing emission factors. AP-42 is routinely updated by EPA to respond to new emission factor needs of EPA, State and local air pollution control programs, and industry. An emission factor relates the quantity (weight) of pollutants emitted to a unit of activity of the source. The uses for the emission factors reported in AP-42 include: 1. Estimates of areawide emissions; 2. Estimates of emissions for a specific facility; and 3. Evaluation of emissions relative to ambient air quality. The purpose of this report is to provide background information from test reports and other information to support preparation of AP-42 Section 8.16, Mineral Wool Manufacturing. This background report consists of five sections. Section 1 includes the introduction to the report. Section 2 gives a description of the mineral wool industry. It includes a characterization of the industry, an overview of the different process types, a description of emissions, and a description of the technology used to control emissions resulting from mineral wool production operations. Section 3 is a review of emission data collection and laboratory analysis procedures. It describes the literature search, the screening of emission data reports, and the quality rating system for both emission data and emission factors.

  • Mineral Wool Manufacturing
    11.18 Mineral Wool Manufacturing 11.18.1 General1,2 Mineral wool often is defined as any fibrous glassy substance made from minerals (typically natural rock materials such as basalt or diabase) or mineral products such as slag and glass. Because glass wool production is covered separately in AP-42 (Section 11.13), this section deals only with the production of mineral wool from natural rock and slags such as iron blast furnace slag, the primary material, and copper, lead, and phosphate slags. These materials are processed into insulation and other fibrous building materials that are used for structural strength and fire resistance. Generally, these products take 1 of 4 forms: "blowing" wool or "pouring" wool, which is put into the structural spaces of buildings; batts, which may be covered with a vapor barrier of paper or foil and are shaped to fit between the structural members of buildings; industrial and commercial products such as high- density fiber felts and blankets, which are used for insulating boilers, ovens, pipes, refrigerators, and other process equipment; and bulk fiber, which is used as a raw material in manufacturing other products, such as ceiling tile, wall board, spray-on insulation, cement, and mortar. Mineral wool manufacturing facilities are included in Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Code 3296, mineral wool. This SIC code also includes the production of glass wool insulation products, but those facilities engaged in manufacturing textile glass fibers are included in SIC Code 3229. The 6-digit Source Classification Code (SCC) for mineral wool manufacturing is 3-05-017. 11.18.2 Process Description1,4,5 Most mineral wool produced in the United States today is produced from slag or a mixture of slag and rock.

It uses very little energy to transport or to be put in place, it is easy to install and safe to use. It makes buildings energy efficient, combats noise and reduces air pollution, it is incombustible and retains its dimensional integrity throughout its entire durable life, whilst providing comfort, and leaving an overwhelmingly positive net carbon footprint. When the building’s lifetime comes to an end, it can be recycled into new mineral wool, or converted into other useful products that contribute to a sustainable solution.
