👉 Down fumes refer to the noxious, often toxic vapors or gases released from industrial processes, chemical reactions, or the decomposition of organic matter. These fumes can contain a variety of harmful substances such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and heavy metals, which can cause respiratory issues, skin irritation, and long-term health problems like cancer or neurological damage. In poorly ventilated areas, down fumes can accumulate, posing significant risks to workers and nearby communities. Proper ventilation, safety equipment, and regulatory compliance are essential to mitigate these dangers.
