January 28, 2011—ACGIH and its Industrial Ventilation Committee present two continuing education courses in April: Fundamentals in Industrial Ventilation will be held April 11-13, 2011, and Practical Applications of Useful Equations will be held April 14-15, 2011, at the ACGIH Professional Learning Center in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Fundamentals in Industrial Ventilation is a three-day course that covers both basic and advanced topics related to industrial ventilation including the behavior of air and chemical contaminants in the air; industrial process exhaust systems; make-up and supply air ventilation systems; dilution ventilation systems; selection and design of exhaust hoods, ducts, fans, stacks, and air cleaners; troubleshooting and testing of existing systems; and hands-on testing and measurements.
Practical Applications of Useful Equations is a two-day course that serves as add-on to Fundamentals in Industrial Ventilation. This course closely follows the workbook supplied, and includes calculation and estimation approaches related to airborne contaminants; TLV and TWA
OA for dilution, fans, system testing, sound and noise; ergonomics; radiation; ventilation; statistics; chemistry; and more.
Those interested in attending one or both of these continuing education courses can register online.
