We will be designing a safe industrial shade (volume 10000 cubic meter) for a rubber gloves manufacturing facility. About 160 workers work in three shifts combined. During the manufacturing process each glove production produces 18 nano grams of toluene. The plant produces 15 million gloves/year. The half life for toluene is 39 days. Determine the steady state flow required to have a risk less than 100 per million. Consider each worker works for 40 hours/week, 350 days/year, 25 years over life time, Body weight 70 kg, Life span 70 years, PF inh=31.98 (mg/kg-day)-1, and inhales 20m3/24 hours.
