👉 Production fumes are harmful byproducts released during various industrial processes, such as manufacturing, welding, and chemical reactions. These fumes typically contain a mixture of gases and particulates, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs), nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur dioxide (SO2), carbon monoxide (CO), and heavy metals. VOCs can cause respiratory issues, headaches, and long-term health problems like cancer, while NOx and SO2 contribute to air pollution, acid rain, and respiratory diseases. Particulates, especially fine particles (PM2.5), can penetrate deep into the lungs and bloodstream, leading to cardiovascular and neurological effects. Proper ventilation, use of personal protective equipment, and implementation of emission control technologies are crucial to mitigate these health risks.
