Infos

Since the first edition in 1948, Patty's Industrial Hygiene and Toxicology has become a flagship publication for Wiley. During its nearly seven decades in print, it has become a standard reference for the fields of occupational health and toxicology. The volumes on industrial hygiene are cornerstone reference works for not only industrial hygienists but also chemists, engineers, toxicologists, lawyers, and occupational safety personnel.

Volume 4 covers environmental and health and safety program management, with a number of new chapters on sustainability, construction health and safety, health and safety of new energies and working with cannabis.

To convert degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit: °C (9/5) + 32 = °F

To convert degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius: (5/9) (°F − 32) = °C

For solutes in water: 1 mg/liter 1 ppm (by weight)

Atmospheric contamination: 1 mg/liter 1 oz/1000 cu ft (approx)

For gases or vapors in air at 25°C and 760 mm Hg pressure:

To convert mg/liter to ppm (by volume): mg/liter (24,450/mol. wt.) = ppm

To convert ppm to mg/liter: ppm (mol. wt./24,450) = mg/liter

Factors for conversion of some units

Mg/L × 28.32 = Mg/cubic foot

Mg/L × 1000 = Mg /cubic meter

Mg/cubic foot × 35.314 = Mg/cubic meter
