Abstract

Welding stainless steel generates hazardous air pollutants (HAPs). Two technologies were developed to reduce these HAPs. The first, tetramethylsilane is added to the welding shielding gas, and welding proceeds as normal. Reactive oxygen species are consumed, and the resulting metal fume particles are encapsulated. In the second technique, new chromium-free welding consumables are introduced nearly eliminating Cr(VI) in the welding fume.
