title: Physical/chemical and microbiological analyses of dusts at a resource recover plant.
abstract: Airborne dusts at a resource recovery pilot plant were sampled and analyzed to determine physical, chemical and microbiological characteristics. The sampling device was a multi-stage impactor equipped with a pre-collector. Dusts are primarily fibrous organic materials, predominantly of nonrespirable size. Microbiological aerosol concentrations are reported and discussed.
