'Times New Roman'; ">The development of the Advanced REACH Tool (ART) version 1.0
is complete and
the tool is now
available. Users are able to assess occupational
exposure
to dust, vapours and mists for use in connection with the
European REACH
regulations.
Based on
feedback from users of the beta version of the ART tool we
have
implemented quite a lot of changes to the user interface, such
as a =B3quick
revision=B2 function, =B3report=B2 function and =B3save
as=B2 function. We are
confident that these modifications have
improved the user friendliness. Why
not try it
out.
The next release (ART v1.1) is
scheduled for March 2010 and this version
will include exposure to
fumes from hot and molten metals.
Please
circulate the web link (www.advancedreachtool.com) to anyone who
might be interested in
the tool. Feedback about the tool can be made via the
ART
website.
ART tool has been developed as
a collaborative venture between TNO, IOM, HSL
and a number of other
European scientists.

creating airborne flour dust at work,
