👉 As:fumes refer to a cloud of noxious gases or vapors that can be released from various sources, such as industrial processes, chemical reactions, or even natural phenomena like volcanic eruptions. These fumes are typically invisible and odorless, making them difficult to detect without specialized equipment. When inhaled, as:fumes can cause immediate health issues, including respiratory irritation, headaches, dizziness, and in severe cases, more serious conditions like organ damage or death. The composition of as:fumes varies widely, depending on the source, but common components include sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and heavy metals. Proper ventilation and protective measures are crucial when dealing with environments where as:fumes are present to ensure safety and health.
