Personal Protective Equipment for Chemical, Biological, and Radiological Hazards
Author: Eva F. Gudgin Dickson
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1118422910
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 281
Book Description
Personal protective equipment (PPE) is critical for those dealing with toxic, infectious, and radioactive materials. An easily accessible guide for professionals and researchers in all PPE fields, this book takes a fresh look at how PPE is designed, selected, and used in today's emergency response environment where users may need to be protected against deliberately used chemical, biological, or radiological agents in terrorism or warfare scenarios as well as more traditional hazards. Covering the physics, chemistry, and physiology of these hazards, the book explains how PPE protects from various forms of hazards as well as how to use this information to select PPE against these highly hazardous substances for first responder or military users. The design of PPE and components plus relevant performance and evaluation standards are also discussed.

Author: Krister Forsberg
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1118855914
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
Quick Selection Guide to Chemical Protective Clothing provides the reader with the latest information on Selection, Care and Use of Chemical Protective garments and gloves. Topics in the widely-used reference guide include Selection and Use of Chemical Protective Clothing, Chemical Index, Selection Recommendations, Glossary, Standards for Chemical Protective Clothing, Manufactures of Chemical Protective Clothing and European requirements for chemical resistant gloves. The key feature of the book is the color-coded selection recommendations. The red, yellow or green indications are highly appreciated by the users. This sixth edition of the Quick Selection Guide to Chemical Protective Clothing has been updated, to include approximately 1,000 chemicals/chemical brands or mixture of chemicals more than twice the information provided in the original edition. The performance of 9 generic materials and 32 proprietary barriers are compared against the 21 standard test chemicals listed in ASTM F1001. The color-coded recommendations against the broader list of materials now contain 27 representative barrier materials. This best selling pocket guide is the an essential field source for HazMat teams, spill responder, safety professionals, chemists and chemical engineers, industrial hygienists, supervisors, purchase agents, salespeople and other users of chemical protective clothing.

Book Description
The Nat. Institute of Justice (NIJ) provides objective, independent, evidence-based knowledge and tools to meet the challenges of crime and justice, particularly at the State and local levels. NIST furnishes technical support to NIJ in the development of standards, and subjects existing equipment to laboratory testing and evaluation and conducts research leading to the development of nat. standards, user guides, and technical reports. This report focuses particularly on respiratory protection for emergency first responders. Chapters: identification of personal protection equipment (new equipment, vendor contacts); and data fields (parameters: operational, physical, logistical, and special requirements).

Guide for the Selection of Personal Protective Equipment for Emergency First Responders

ISBN: 9781494214098
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
The National Institute of Justice is the focal point for providing support to State and local law enforcement agencies in the development of counterterrorism technology and standards, including technology needs for chemical and biological defense. In recognizing the needs of State and local emergency first responders, the Office of Law Enforcement Standards (OLES) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), supported by the National Institute of Justice (NIJ), the Technical Support Working Group (TSWG), the U.S. Army Soldier and Biological Chemical Command, and the Interagency Board for Equipment Standardization and Interoperability (IAB), is developing chemical and biological defense equipment guides. The guides will focus on chemical and biological equipment in areas of detection, personal protection, decontamination, and communication. This document focuses specifically on assisting the emergency first responder community in the evaluation and purchase of personal protective equipment. The long range plans include these goals: (1) subject existing personal protective equipment to laboratory testing and evaluation against a specified protocol, and (2) conduct research leading to the development of a series of documents, including national standards, user guides, and technical reports. It is anticipated that the testing, evaluation, and research processes will take several years to complete; therefore, the National Institute of Justice has developed this initial guide for the emergency first responder community in order to facilitate their evaluation and purchase of personal protective equipment.

This document focuses specifically on assisting the emergency first responder community in the evaluation and purchase of personal protective equipment. The long range plans are to: (1) subject existing personal protective equipment to laboratory testing and evaluation against a specified protocol, and (2) conduct research leading to the development of multiple series of documents, including national standards, user guides, and technical reports. It is anticipated that the testing, evaluation, and research processes will take several years to complete; therefore, the National Institute of Justice has developed this initial guide for the emergency first responder community in order to facilitate their evaluation and purchase of personal protective equipment. In conjunction with this program, additional guides, as well as other documents, are being issued in the areas of chemical agent and toxic industrial material detection equipment, biological agent detection equipment, decontamination equipment, and communication equipment. This Volume, IIa, of the Guide for the Selection of Personal Protective Equipment for Emergency First Responders, which focuses particularly on respiratory protection. It contains the information data sheets that were used to support the personal protective equipment evaluation detailed in Volume I. The compilation of data in Volume IIa is the result of the merger of several data acquisition methods used independently by NIST and TSWG.
