The odor threshold for benzene is 30 ppm, but the current American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists Threshold Limit Value considered safe for occupational exposure (8 h day) is below that threshold at 0.5 ppm. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration permissible exposure limit (PEL) is 1 ppm, with a short-term exposure limit (STEL) of 5 ppm. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health recommends an exposure limit (recommended exposure limit) of 0.1 ppm with a STEL of 1 ppm. [Pg.253]

Occupational Safety and Health Administration permissible exposure limit 10 ppm (ceiling 25 ppm, and 5 min maximum peak in any 4 h 200 ppm). [Pg.428]

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration permissible exposure limit time-weighted averages (TWAs) for chromium compounds are for, chromi-um(0) and salts - 1.0 mg m for chromium(II) and chromium(III) - 0.5mgm . The American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists threshold limit value - TWA for chromium(VI) is 0.01 mgm. The US Environmental Protection Agency maximum contaminant level in drinking water is 0.1 mgH. ... [Pg.602]

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration permissible exposure limits for various corrosives are as follows glacial acetic acid, 10 ppm acetic anhydride, 5 ppm hydrofluoric acid, 3 ppm sulfuric acid, lmgm oxalic acid, lmgm nitric acid, 2 ppm bromine, 0.1 ppm chlorine, Ippm fluorine, 1 ppm hydrochloric acid, 5 ppm. [Pg.668]

Occupational Safety and Health Administration permissible exposure limit is 5 ppm (22mgm ) for 8 h time-weighted average (TWA). The threshold limit value for cresol and its isomers is 5 ppm for 8 h TWA. National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health recommended exposure limit is 2.3 ppm (lOmgm ) for lOh TWA for all isomers. [Pg.680]

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration permissible exposure limit is set at 8 h time-weighted average of 400 ppm, which is equivalent to 1200 mg m. Fifteen minutes short term exposure limit is 500 ppm. The immediately dangerous to life or health concentration is 1900 ppm and is based on 10% of the lower explosive limit for safety considerations. [Pg.845]

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration permissible exposure limit is 100 ppm (435 mg m ) (8h time-weighted average), based on irritation. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health short-term exposure limit (15 min exposure limit) is 125 ppm (543mgm ), based on irritation. The odor threshold is 8.7 ppm. Hazardous waste number F003. The acceptable daily intake (US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)) is 1.6 mg day The EPA oral reference dose (Rfd) for ethyl benzene is 0.1 mg kg day The oral Rfd...

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration permissible exposure limit (PEL) time-weighted average (TWA) for nickel metal and other nickel compounds as nickel is 1 mg m the PEL TWA for nickel carbonyl is 0.007 mg m . The ACGIH threshold limit values (TLVs) for nickel metal, insoluble compounds, soluble compounds, nickel carbonyl, and nickel subsulflde, all expressed as nickel, are 1.5, 0.2, 0.1, 0.12, and 0.1 mgm, respectively. Except for nickel carbonyl, all of the TLVs are expressed as inhalable particulate. The US EPA reference dose for soluble nickel salts is 0.02 mg kg day, but this value is undergoing reevaluation, due to the availability of several relevant new studies. [Pg.1806]
