Mobile crushers can also be called mobile crushing plants, mobile crushers, etc. It is an inevitable product of high-tech crushing technology in the new era, and its main features are that it can be operated mobilely, can walk freely, and is more convenient for transitions, ensuring that the equipment While the production is safe, the work process is more reliable.
·Silicosis is a progressive debilitating and sometimes fatal lung disease caused by breathing silica dust from cutting drilling chipping or grinding materials such as granite sandstone slate or artificial stone The dust gets trapped in the lung tissue causing inflammation scarring and permanent Silicosis is a job related lung disease and has no cure
·Emphysema destruction of lung tissue and loss of lung surface area impacting the exchange of gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide; Lung Cancer occurs with heavy exposure to crystalline silica smokers are grouped in the higher risk category; Kidney damage and Chronic Kidney Disease may require dialysis if severe
·The temperature in the area can vary from 28 to 48 °C during summers and 8 28 °C during winters The solar radiations throughout the year are very high having annual average solar radiation of 22 MJ/m 2 /day which can reach upto MJ/m 2 /day in summers The wind speed remains quite low 5 8 km/h during winter and high 20 30 km/h during
·Silica is the main constituent of more than 95% of rocks and stones Occupational exposure to silica dust is one of the oldest known forms of lung disease first documented by Hippocrates in 400 BC describing breathing disorders in metal diggers In the 1600s van Diemerbrock noted the harmful effects of inhaling granite dust
Silica dust crystalline silica is found in some stone rock sand gravel and clay The most common form is quartz Silica dust can also be found in the following products an irreversible scarring and stiffening of the lungs kidney disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease It is estimated that 230 people develop lung cancer
INTRODUCTION Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis PAM is a rare genetic lung disease characterized by presence of diffused innumerable small calculi called microliths in the alveoli of the lungs These deposits eventually cause widespread damage to the alveoli and surrounding lung tissue Reports of this disease are less than 1500 cases worldwide without any specific
·Silicosis is an irreversible lung disease caused by inhaling large amounts of silica dust caused by cutting sawing and crushing stone slabs By Lolita Lopez and Helen Jeong
·This disease makes breathing more difficult and increases the risk of lung infections Silicosis usually follows many years of exposure to RCS Exceptionally high exposures over a few months or years can cause acute silicosis which
·The aim of this study was to assess the effects of stone crushing dust pollution on three commonly cultivated fruit plant species Vitis vinifera L Morus alba L and Prunus armeniaca L and on the health of workers working at crushing plants The trial was carried out on fruit plant species grown close to the stone crushing units located near the northwestern

·Objective To evaluate the comparison of lung function among carpenters stone quarry workers and coal miners Methods This was a cross sectional survey based study
·Twenty five per cent of stone cutting workers from Hong Kong 19% of the workers in sandblasting industries of Turkey and 26% workers from Michigan silicosis registry were reported to have PMF Since the publication of these reports several advances have taken place which might have reduced the disease burden to some extent
·The activities such as mining crushing and milling stone cutting and sandblasting carried out in quarries generate dust and fine particulate matters PMs of silica and heavy metals that remain suspended in the air for long periods Mining and quarry related activities are risk factors for lung diseases such as silicosis and silica
·It is believed that coal dust is responsible for many human diseases such as asthma chronic obstructive pulmonary disease stunted lung development pneumoconiosis and lung cancer cardiac arrhythmias acute myocardial infarction and so on Petsonk et al 2013 For coal miners the most common and serious disease is pneumoconiosis Finkelman et al 2002
Chronic silicosis the most common form of the disorder generally develops slowly and typically appears decades after initial exposure Chronic silicosis includes simple and complicated progressive massive fibrosis forms Accelerated silicosis is similar to chronic silicosis but develops more rapidly in patients with high levels of exposure with onset of disease within 5 to
·Nearly a quarter of subjects were suffering from the worst type of lung involvement at screening itself The policy has laid a foundation for the welfare of workers but there is still a long way to go Burden of Silicosis among stone crushing workers in India Occup Med Lond 2022 Aug 16;72 6 366 371 doi /occmed/kqab146 Authors
·New research has found that workers who fabricate products made with quartz are at risk of developing a potentially deadly lung disease According to a study published in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine in July working with quartz poses a risk of silicosis caused by the inhalation of silica The study found 52 cases of irreversible lung damage among workers
·This is similar to the findings of a study from Iran that found the most common abnormality among stone workers was obstructive lung disease followed by were mg/m3 in the crushing 21 mg
·This serious lung disease known as silicosis is irreversible and can be fatal Engineered stone workers make up a disproportionate number of silicosis cases and in these cases the silicosis is associated with a shorter duration of exposure to silica faster disease progression and higher mortality
