INFORMATION FROM KODAK

Indoor Air Quality and Ventilation in

Photographic Processing Facilities

The Occupational Safety and

Health Administration (OSHA)

presents a framework of federal

regulations that set chemical

exposure standards for the

workplace environment. These

standards outline allowable limits

that employees may be safely

exposed to during the work day.

Effective ventilation systems are an

important tool that will help

minimize employee exposure to

photographic processing

chemicals. While photographic

processing facilities are typically

considered to be a low hazard

INTRODUCTION

workplace, indoor air quality

environment can be improved if

well engineered ventilation

systems are installed.

This publication will provide

information on the following

topics:

• Indoor air quality

• Exposure concepts

• Air contaminants

• Exposure standards and

guidelines

• Methods of evaluation

• Ventilation and work practice

control measures

This publication is meant to assist others with their compliance programs. However, this is

not a comprehensive treatment of the issues. We cannot identify all possible situations and

ultimately it is the reader’s obligation to decide on the appropriateness of this information to

his/her operation.
