  • Instead of exhausting a diver's exhaled breath to the sea, as an open-circuit scuba does, it absorbs carbon dioxide and recovers unused oxygen, to supplement the mixture entering the inhalation bag from the tanks.

  • - Air pollution resulting from mercury vapors produced during open-circuit distillation of amalgam occurs frequently in gold mining and leads to a variety of health risks due to mercury contamination: loss of hair, decay of fingernails and bones, and can also result in death (see also Section D. 6.5.1).

  • Keeping this requirement in mind, generally the open-circuit tube-ball grinding mill with two/three compartments or two-compartment ball mills with a mechanical air separator should be chosen.
