At the point of receptor there are define acceptable levels for bio-aerosols. |
| Wind is a powerful tool
in the control of bio aerosol emissions, whether prevailing winds blow
towards or away from sensitive receptors can be a make of break factor
in the application process. Of course if it turns out that an open air activity is giving rise to unacceptable levels of bio-aerosols then the operation can always be put in a building. . .but this is expensive and normally unnecessary. Compiling an SSBRA is pretty tricky stuff, even for a professional, and is fairly time consuming if you would like SWEL to compile an SSBRA for your facility then please call or email and we will help out. |
