Railroad Emphysema
Railroad Leukemia workers are at a greater chance of developing lung diseases, such as COPD, due to the types of chemicals they are exposed to. These include diesel and coal fumes. Certain workers also suffer from respiratory ailments due to smoking cigarettes and welding fumes.
Emphysema affects the walls of air sacs in the lungs, making it more difficult to breathe. It is a type of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Smoking is a major cause of COPD. Other factors include a lack of alpha-1-antitrypsin, or serious lung infections.
Coal and Mineral Dusts
Inhaling fumes and dust from working with certain chemicals, coal, cotton or wood increases your chance of developing emphysema. Secondhand smoke and environmental pollutants such as car exhaust can increase your risk.
Recent studies have reported that combustion of fossil fuels is the largest source of ambient PM2.5-related mortality. The fugitive dust produced by coal transport could be a major cause. Trains transport approximately 70 percent of coal deliveries in the United States, and it is believed that coal dust fugitive from trains account for approximately half of all coal-related particles matter.
Coal dust is a source of arsenic, mercury, uranium and arsenic, among other toxic metals. It is known to leach toxins into the soil and water. It can also cling to the leaves of plants that reduce photosynthesis, and depriving it of nutrients. It can cause wildlife and Railroad Emphysema plant deaths.
Scientists have discovered that if a coal train passes, concentrations of fine particles, also known as PM2.5 are almost 90 percent higher than when a freight train travels by. The study was conducted at Richmond, California. This is a racially diverse, densely populated community with a high rate of asthma and respiratory illness. The study examined coal trains loaded with both and empty (unloaded) to be able to simulate the real-world conditions of long-haul coal transport. They also examined the methods of loading coal onto trains to determine the effectiveness of chemical binders in controlling the release of coal dust.
Silica Dust
Silica is one of the most common minerals on Earth. It is found in a variety materials including sand, soil concrete, rock, and masonry. It could be hazardous if it becomes airborne, and is inhaled by employees. The microscopic crystal particles can scratch and tear the nasal linings passages, sinuses, and respiratory passages. This can trigger the condition known as silicosis. The lung condition is incurable and affects the lungs ability to absorb oxygen. The disease may also lead to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and kidney disease. Smoking can affect the lungs' ability to remove silica dust.
Workers are exposed crystalline silica by using tools that produce airborne dust. This includes cutting, drilling and grinding. Additionally it can be carried around by trains. A NIOSH study conducted at the CSX's Radnor Yard found that many track department employees were exposed levels of silica dust. This was due to the sand used to braking locomotives and piles of which can be found throughout the Railroad Copd yards and in shops.
The most effective method to avoid exposure to crystalline silica is to use personal protective equipment that fits properly. In addition, employers should provide adequate training on how to use this equipment. This is particularly important for workers with facial hair because the particles can pass through the hair and get into the lungs.
Secondhand Smoke
COPD, emphysema and various lung diseases can be caused secondhand smoke. Ammonia and formaldehyde as well as other chemical compounds in smoke can cause irritation to the throat, eyes, noses, and lungs. They can also trigger or worsen asthma. Smoke exposure during pregnancy can also affect the unborn baby and trigger respiratory infections.
Railroad Interstitial Lung Disease workers who work in enclosed locomotive cabs are frequently exposed to diesel exhaust and secondhand smoking. Many railroads were slow to implement smoking bans for Railroad Emphysema trains, despite the overwhelming evidence of the negative effects of secondhand smoke.
Silica dust is a risk for railway workers, in particular those who operate or maintain the rail yard. The fine dust that can be inhaled, can trigger respiratory illnesses like silicosis and occupational asthma. It could cause chronic bronchitis. It can be mixed with other substances that can cause lung damage such as coal, asbestos and diesel fumes, resulting in toxic smoke.
Herbicides, which are employed to kill plants that are not wanted, and welding fumes that contain silicon dioxide and metallic oxides can cause lung damage. They can also cause lung damage and are believed to increase the risk of alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) which is which is a genetic disorder that causes a protein known as alpha-1 antitrypsin (AATD) to break down in the lungs.
Exposure to Diesel Exhaust
Diesel exhaust, or diesel smoke, is a poisonous chemical mix that contains literally hundreds of different compounds. Many of these particles are known carcinogens such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, polyaromatic hydrocarbons, and benzene. The exposure to diesel exhaust over time can lead to a range of lung diseases and ailments, such as diesel asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and lung cancer.
Recent research on the health of workers on railroads' lungs revealed that exposure to diesel exhaust raises the risk of lung carcinoma. This finding is in line with other studies and is based on direct exposure to diesel emissions and indirect exposure from smoking in the presence of diesel exhaust.
The study included information from a vast cohort of Railroad Acute Myeloid Leukemia workers who had positions that exposed them to diesel exhaust from 1959 to 1996. The study found that exposure to diesel exhaust is associated with an increased risk of lung cancer, but also with an increase in COPD mortality. This effect remained after adjustment for smoking history and was proportional to years of work in diesel exposed jobs. The authors conclude that exposure to diesel in the railway workplace is a significant contributor to the high rate of respiratory diseases among career railroaders. This is especially relevant for those who have been smokers for the majority of their careers. These workers are at a higher risk of developing lung illnesses that could be life-threatening such as emphysema, emphysema, secondhand asthma caused by smoking.
