FT - 705 Chemical Safety Course Contents:
Unit I General Principle of Chemical exposure and toxic response:-
Chemical exposure and cancer, chemical exposure and hypersensitivity, toxic response of lungs, liver, kidney, skin chemical exposure and health risk assessment.
Chemical exposure and cancer, chemical exposure and hypersensitivity, toxic response of lungs, liver, kidney, skin chemical exposure and health risk assessment.
Unit II Toxic release and dispersion models:-
Design basis, source model, dispersion model, Pasquill- Gifford model, effect of release momentum, Buoyancy.
Unit III Chemical risk analysis:-
