What harm does disinfection do to health?

Anticorrosion work may cause immune disorders, cancer, aplastic anemia, leukemia and other diseases.

Due to the long-term exposure to formaldehyde, benzene, TVOC and other organic substances. All three are toxic substances.

1, formaldehyde is a colorless and soluble irritating gas. Wood-based panels such as particleboard, density board, plywood, adhesive and wallpaper are the main sources of formaldehyde in the air, and the release period is as long as 3 ~ 15 years. It can be absorbed through respiratory tract, and the harm of formaldehyde to human body has the characteristics of long-term, latent and concealed. Long-term inhalation of formaldehyde can cause serious diseases such as nasopharyngeal carcinoma and laryngeal cancer.

2. Benzene is a colorless gas with a special aromatic smell. Glue, paint, coating and adhesive are the main sources of benzene in the air. Benzene and benzene series can be anesthetized by the central nervous system after being inhaled by human body; It can inhibit human hematopoietic function, reduce red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets, and increase the incidence of aplastic anemia; It can also lead to abnormal menstruation in women and congenital defects in the fetus.

3.TVOC total volatile organic compounds (VOC and VotatileOrganicCompound) are heterogeneous pollutants in indoor air. Because of their low concentration and many kinds, they are generally not represented one by one, but their total amount is represented by TVOC. TVOC includes benzene, toluene, butyl acetate, ethylbenzene, p (m) xylene, styrene, o-xylene and undecane.

Indoor building and decoration materials are the main sources of TVOC in the air. The research shows that even if the content of single VOC in indoor air is lower than its limit, the mixed existence and interaction of multiple VOCs will increase the hazard intensity. TVOC is toxic and irritating, which can cause the imbalance of immune level, affect the function of central nervous system, appear dizziness, headache, lethargy, fatigue, chest tightness and other symptoms, and may also affect the digestive system, such as loss of appetite, nausea, and even cause death in severe cases.

Therefore, personal protection should be done in the anti-corrosion work to avoid the loss outweighs the gain.
