Abstract |
The Refractories Institute commissioned Battelle Columbus Laboratories in the summer of 1981 to conduct an independent investigation to determine the effects of exposure to chromium compounds on human health and the environment. Battelle's study included a critical review of selected publications relating to chromina toxicity, a comprehensive survey of all 30 refractory plant locations in the United States, site visits to a representa- tive group of manufacturing plants, and an analytical assessment to determine if trivalent chromium compounds used in manufacturing refractories were con- verted to hexavalent materials during the manufacturing process. |
