This project aims to implement treatments that make quartz-containing raw materials safe for use in ceramics manufacturing, addressing the carcinogenic risks associated with respirable crystalline silica. The goal is to transform manufacturing processes to enhance worker safety while maintaining product quality.
In 1997, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified Respirable Crystalline Silica (RCS) in the form of quartz or crystobalite from occupational sources as carcinogenic for humans (category 1).
Crystalline silica is an essential raw material for the production of virtually all the goods of everyday life.
As a consequence, there can be significant amounts of RCS in the environments of many manufacture processes.
Hence, a vast number of European workers are potentially expose…
