Characteristics and assessing biological risks of airborne bacteria in waste sorting plant

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022
Examining the concentration and types of airborne bacteria in waste paper and cardboard sorting plants (WPCSP) is an urgent matter to inform policy makers about the health impacts on exposed workers. Herein, we collected 20 samples at 9 points of a WPCSP
