Air Sampling Technologies - Principles and Applications PDF

ACGIH's Air Sampling Technologies (AST) book is a comprehensive text covering the practical application of modern sampling devices. Information on the utilization of sampling results is found within this up-to-date resource containing industry expert methodologies. This versatile compilation of worldwide expertise ranges from baseline necessities for compliance to the practical application of Bayesian statistics for anticipating problems not traditionally found in active or passive air sampling. 

AST chapters cover in-depth air sampling instruments applicable to any industrial hygiene program - including pumps used to move air into sampling media and size selective techniques which ensure field practitioners can most accurately describe exposures. Additionally, new advances in a variety of air sampling equipment are covered in great detail along with direct reading instruments focused on spectrometry and ionization technologies. 

Through the lens of OEHS experts in the field of air sampling technologies, groundbreaking materials found in this book also explore how the recent expansion of knowledge behind nanoparticles and ultrafine particles will result in a heightened sense of defined exposure - resulting in vitally important science for the future of global sampling programs and industrial hygiene principles. As the world has placed renewed importance on indoor air quality, bioaerosols assessment, and microscopic exposures, the AST book serves as another ACGIH "gold standard" publication poised to educate the field of occupational and environmental health/safety well into the future
