- ed.
A cooperative comprehensive multidisciplinary research effort between the Lovelace Inhalation Toxicology Research Institute (ITRI) and the Morgantown Energy Technology Center (METC) has been addressing basic human health risks associated with low Btu coal gasification. The major goal of this research effort is to assess inhalation hazards to plant workers and the general population that may be associated with low Btu coal gasification. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to characterize the potential toxicants in liquid and solid process and waste streams. To these ends, the experimental low Btu gasifier at METC has been sampled to determine aerosol components in gaseous process streams and to assess potential toxicants in liquid and solid effluent streams. Results and tentative conclusions are presented.
