aerosols


Suspended particles in the atmosphere which range in size from about 10-3 µm to 20 µm. Volcanoes, car exhaust, industrial plants, forest fires, and even ocean evaporation fill the Earth's atmosphere with not only gaseous pollutants, but also very small particles.

aerosols


Tiny airborne droplets of water or other liquid. Aerosols are generated by misuse of high pressure hoses used to clean and sanitize equipment, floors, and drains. Microorganisms or harmful chemicals within aerosol droplets can rapidly spread through a plant. Workers should therefore protect exposed food and food contact surfaces when cleaning and s [..]
