Why is Industrial Asbestos Removal Difficult? How to Approach it?

In Australia, many buildings, factories, and mills, still comprise asbestos in their roofs, walls, and floor. But when it comes to a commercial structure or manufacturing unit, the use of asbestos is even higher. Due to its resistance to heat, acid, alkalis, and many chemical reactions, it had been mostly used for making furnaces. Plus, due to its fireproofing quality, asbestos coatings were applied to metallic instruments and beams.

At mills, industries, or commercial buildings, asbestos-containing material is difficult to remove as it poses a risk of exposure. We already know that asbestos exposure has been linked to many diseases like lung cancer and also mesothelioma. Therefore, such projects should be meticulously handled by professionals and workers who are trained to do asbestos abatement. Here are some other requirements that should be in place for approaching this task:

 

1) PPE kits- While removing asbestos from any premises, the workers must wear proper masks, gloves, eyewear, and other personal protective equipment properly. They will certainly protect the workers from direct exposure.

 

2) Sealed dumpers- Once the asbestos has been successfully removed, it should be kept in a sealed dumpster and must be disposed of at government-approved sites.

 

3) On-site equipment- The job site should have negative air pressure enclosures and portable showers to ensure that no particles are released into the surrounding environment.

 

Apart from all the above-mentioned requirements, workers involved in industrial asbestos removal services should gain timely training before reapplying for their license.
