Ambient air concentrations of asbestos fibers near the town of Asbestos, Québec.

B Singh, J P Thouez.   

Abstract

Ambient air concentrations of asbestos fibers were measured during the period June 20 to August 12, 1980, at three locations; Danville, Asbestos, and Wottenville in the eastern townships of Quebec. Measurements were done with low-volume samplers and measurement periods extended from 3 to 13 days. Fiber counts were done by means of electron microscopy. Results indicate that overall fiber concentrations are related to atmospheric stability and to the direction of the prevailing wind with respect to the source of emission.
