A while ago ther wer ea few postings on the list-serve trlated to the
subject of Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emissions and changes in US
pollution laws, particularly related to Southern California. Members of the
list might be interested in an article in the latest issue of Professional
Boatbuilder (Number 73) entitled Controlling Emissions in a Small Shop.
This describes use of a bed of granular charcoal to absorb styrene,
acetone, etc from air circulating in the building. It would be well to bear
in mind a few caveats, though. Emissions from even a small boatbuilding
operation are probably more than most all P&O facilities. The matter of
installing such a system is not as simple and uncomplicated as it might
sound. Still though, the article and the supporting sidebars do a nice job
of exploring the matter.
Back issues, and presumably the current issue of Professional Boatbuilder
may be obtained from www.proboat.com.
There are, by the way, more than a few intersesting parallels between
boatbuilding (especially custom boats) and P&O in my opinion at least.
