👉 Routing fumes are harmful vapors and gases that can be released into the air from various sources, particularly when materials like solvents, fuels, or chemicals are used, mixed, or heated. These fumes can contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which are often toxic or irritating to human health, affecting the respiratory system, eyes, skin, and even the central nervous system. Prolonged exposure can lead to more serious health issues, including headaches, dizziness, and long-term damage. In industrial settings, proper ventilation and safety measures are crucial to minimize exposure, but even in well-ventilated areas, routing fumes can still pose risks if not managed correctly.
