Beryllium Dust or Fumes Canada.ca

Jun 14, 2013Inhaling beryllium dust or fumes can be fatal. Beryllium is a confirmed human carcinogen. The critical effects of exposure to beryllium are lung cancer and berylliosis. The present ACGIH TLV (the legal exposure limit) for beryllium is only 2 micrograms of the element per cubic meter of inhaled air and is under review.

Dusts, fumesmist: How to control beryllium exposures ISHN

How are workers exposed to beryllium? Exposures occur when beryllium and beryllium-containing materials are processed in a way that releases airborne beryllium dust, fume or mist into the workplace air. Occupational exposure to beryllium can also occur from skin, eye and mucous membrane contact with beryllium particulate or solutions.

How do I reduce exposure to beryllium in weld fumes?

Your first step in reducing beryllium exposure is to examine your welding processes. Process improvements can often cut fumes with far less expense and hassle than other methods. Changing your weld wire from flux-core to solid, for example, is a highly effective way to reduce fume volume and to cut welders’ exposure to beryllium.
