| Description | Journal: Journal of the Air Pollution Control Association An attempt to develop medical air quality guides are recently made in Sweden. Even if air pollution is present in only fairly small amounts, problems frequently arise especially concerning nuisance reactions. Present regulations do not provide a basis for a standardized treatment of air pollution problems. The national air pollution situation was discussed and a survey of the literature was performed to collect data concerning current air pollutants. For sulfur dioxide a 30 day value of eight pphm and a two hour value of 25 pphm was recommended. It was further recommended to keep the carbon monoxide concentration as low as possible with an eight hour value of 30 ppm as an absolute maximum. For carcinogenic and mutagenic substances it was also recommended to keep the values as low as possible. Although available data did not support complete medical guides in all cases it was decided rather to have the above approximations than to leave the air pollution situation uncontrolled. |
