Abstract
Industrial noise control is too often considered technically not possible or economically infeasible. The use of ear protection devices becomes the fallback approach to attempt to reduce the risk of worker hearing loss. In reality there are noise control opportunities in industrial settings than are low cost and provide significant noise reduction without affecting production and maintenance practices. This paper will present mechanical and pneumatic noise controls that can be successfully applied to industrial environments. This paper will also present information on OSHAs approach to determine whether engineering noise controls are considered economically feasible.
