Sažetak
To assess the effect of modernization of the aluminium production on physical and chemical health hazards at work environment in aluminium production. The modernization induced introduction of automatic equipment, computerized management, and rationalized coke manipulation in Anoda, Electrolysis and Cast House plants. Perodical measurement of chemical and physical agents were performed in the work environment at the same workplaces by using the same methods of measurement before and the modernization. The number of workplaces with high noise level was reduced from 65.0% (89/137)in 1982-1988 to 28.7% (51/178) in 2004. The best results were achieved in Cast House plant. The illumination of the workplace was partially improved. Value of microclimatic factors did not considerably change ; they deviated from the recommended values at nearly all the workplaces in the factory. The concentrations of chemical agents were above the recommended standards in 56.3%(198/348) of the samples in 1982-1988, and in only 15.4%(99/645) of the samples tested in 2004. High concentrations of hydrogen fluoride have remaind the primary polutant in Electrolysis plant.
