Minimizing dust emission during routing operation of rubberwood

The study evaluated airborne dust emission (0.1-10 μm) during the routing operation of Rubberwood (Hevea brasiliensis) in the furniture industry in South East Asia. It was found that the average chip thickness of 0.1 mm and wood moisture content of 12-14% minimized dust emission, while the cutting t...
