👉 Edge fumes refer to the noxious, often toxic gases and vapors that can accumulate near the edges of industrial sites, construction zones, or areas with heavy machinery operation. These emissions typically arise from processes such as welding, cutting metals, burning fuels, or chemical reactions. The fumes can contain harmful substances like carbon monoxide, hydrogen chloride, and particulate matter, posing significant health risks to nearby workers and residents, including respiratory issues, irritation of the eyes and lungs, and even more severe long-term effects. Proper ventilation and safety measures are crucial to mitigate these risks and ensure a safer environment.
