ASHRAE Guidelines are developed under a review process, identifyinga guideline for the design, testing, application, or evaluation of a specific product, concept, or practice. A
11、s a guideline it is not definitive butencompasses areas where there may be a variety of approaches, none of which must be precisely correct. ASHRAE Guidelines are writtento assist professionals in the area of concern and expertise of ASHRAEs Technical Committees and Task Groups.ASHRAE Guidelines are
12、 prepared by project committees appointed specifically for the purpose of writing Guidelines. The projectcommittee chair and vice-chair must be members of ASHRAE; while other committee members may or may not be ASHRAE members, allmust be technically qualified in the subject area of the Guideline.Dev
13、elopment of ASHRAE Guidelines follows procedures similar to those for ASHRAE Standards except that (a) committee balance isdesired but not required, (b) an effort is made to achieve consensus but consensus is not required, (c) Guidelines are not appealable, and(d) Guidelines are not submitted to ANS

It is merelyinformative.)FOREWORDThis addendum provides a brief description of the use offlame retardants in the passenger cabin, as well as
19、a shortsummary of some flame retardant exposure data collected onaircraft and a list of references for the user to review some ofthe related health hazard literature. This addendum representsa new stand-alone section intended for Guideline 28-2012.Note: In this addendum, changes to the current stand
20、ardare indicated in the text by underlining (for additions) andstrikethrough (for deletions) unless the instructions specifi-cally mention some other means of indicating the changes.8.1.2.14 Flame Retardants. Halogenated flame retar-dants, such as polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) andchlorinate
21、d tris (TDCPP), are organobromine and organo-chlorine compounds, widely used as flame retardants infoams, fabrics, carpets, electronics, molded plastics, and res-ins. They are used in residential and occupational environ-ments, as well as in transportation vehicles, including aircraft.Flame retardan
22、t compounds can be released from treatedcompounds during the products life cycle.Many halogenated flame retardants are known to bioac-cumulate. Published studies have identified them as disrupt-ing hormones, interfering with reproduction and thyroidfunction and impairing the development of the nervo
23、us sys-tem (Chevrier 2010; Harley 2010; Herbstman 2010; Schreiber2010; Darenud 2008; Herbstman 2008; Turyk 2008; Chao etal. 2007; Costa et al. 2007; Main et al. 2007; Hardell 2006).In 2009, the Environmental Protection Agency committed tosummarize PBDE exposure hazards and outline the healthrisks an
24、d specific actions (EPA 2009).Concentrations of flame retardants in the aircraft cabinair have yet to be adequately quantified. To date, only twosmall exploratory studies have investigated potential PBDEexposure in aircraft cabins, and none have investigated expo-sure to other types of flame retarda
25、nts, such as, for example,TDCPP. One of these exploratory studies reported the pres-ence of PBDEs in aircraft cabin dust (Christiansson 2008).That study also identified a small increase in the PBDE serumlevel of nine passengers after a round trip flight, although thisincrease cannot necessarily be a
26、ttributed to exposure in theaircraft because of the opportunity of those passengers tohave been exposed to nonaircraft sources between flights. Incontrast, blood serum analyses of two frequent flyers did notshow elevated PBDE levels as compared to the general popu-lation. The second study (Schecter
27、2010) measured somePBDEs in the blood of nine flight attendants and one pilot.The authors reported that PBDE blood levels of the subjectswere comparable to those of the general public, although thepresence of other flame retardants was not investigated.Aircraft and interiors must meet regulatory sta
28、ndardsintended to prevent the spread of fire on aircraft. The FAA hasissued a performance standard for cabin materials that anignited source must self-extinguish per requirements of 14CFR Part 25 Appendix F, but it neither prescribes nor pro-scribes the use of any particular fire retardant.9.

42、tdoor environment. ASHRAEsmembers will strive to minimize any possible deleterious effect on the indoor and outdoor environment of the systems andcomponents in their responsibility while maximizing the beneficial effects these systems provide, consistent with acceptedstandards and the practical stat
43、e of the art.ASHRAEs short-range goal is to ensure that the systems and components within its scope do not impact the indoor andoutdoor environment to a greater extent than specified by the standards and guidelines as established by itself and otherresponsible bodies.As an ongoing goal, ASHRAE will,
44、 through its Standards Committee and extensive technical committee structure,continue to generate up-to-date standards and guidelines where appropriate and adopt, recommend, and promote those newand revised standards developed by other responsible organizations.Through its Handbook, appropriate chap
45、ters will contain up-to-date standards and design considerations as the material issystematically revised.ASHRAE will take the lead with respect to dissemination of environmental information of its primary interest and will seekout and disseminate information from other responsible organizations tha
46、t is pertinent, as guides to updating standards andguidelines.The effects of the design and selection of equipment and systems will be considered within the scope of the systemsintended use and expected misuse. The disposal of hazardous materials, if any, will also be considered.ASHRAEs primary conc
47、ern for environmental impact will be at the site where equipment within ASHRAEs scopeoperates. However, energy source selection and the possible environmental impact due to the energy source and energytransportation will be considered where possible. Recommendations concerning energy source selection should be made byits members. ASHRAE (www.ashrae.org). For personal use only.
