J. Vonczarnecki et al., PATTERN-RECOGNITION TECHNIQUES APPLIED TO THE IDENTIFICATION OF AIRBORNE MAN-MADE MINERAL FIBERS, Staub, Reihhaltung der Luft, 53(4), 1993, pp. 147-152
The evaluation of airborne fibre concentrations is a major task for im
mission control. Besides asbestos the detection of respirable man made
mineral fibres is of increasing importance. An identification of poss
ible emission sources can be obtained by mathematical pattern recognit
ion techniques applied to quantitative SEM/EDX-results of microscopic
fibres.
