1 & 2. Commercial cheese manufacturing production plant: Chemicals used, routes of exposure, environment/industry specific concerns, and the specific receptors.
This information is from my professional background as a cheese maker.
a. Quaternary ammonia
• Use: Fogging of cheese production area during off hours to inhibit the growth of unwanted molds and bacteria.
• Route of exposure: Inhalation
• Environment/industry specific concern: Minimal risk, this chemical is only used when the facility is not in operation. For example, the fogging equipment is set to run at the end of the day for a short period and allowed to dissipate overnight before production commences the next day. Elevated risk is introduced

I am a sophomore taking ENGRD2020 this semester. Due to a schedule conflict, I would like to switch from Discussion 205 to Discussion 202(Class number 10788) which is currently full, and I am wondering what your advice would be on what I should do to possible make this switch. Thank you smooch for your help! I am looking forward to hearing from

The article I have chosen, The Chemicals in Your Mac and Cheese, by Roni Caryn Rabin is an article that discusses the unintentional additives in this popular pasta that have adverse effects on the consumer. Published July 12, 2017, this article isn’t completely recent, but it is still relevant as macaroni and cheese is a staple in most households today. In the next paragraph, I will write a brief synopsis of this article.
SCENARIO ONE: 1. Alice, a high net worth customer, she banks online at Super Secure Bank (SSB) and has agreed to use 3DES in communicating with SSB. 2. One day, Alice received a statement that shows a debit of $1,000,000 from her account. On inquiring, she was told that the bank manager,Bob, transferred the money out of Alice's account and into an account of his own in an offshore bank. 3. When reached via email in the Cayman Islands, Bob produced a message from Alice, properly encrypted with the agreed upon 3DES keys, saying: "Thanks for your many years of fine service, Bob. Please transfer $1,000,000 from my account to yours as a token of my esteem and appreciation. Signed, Alice." 4. Alice filed suit

Benzene exposures have been occurring in the USA and around the globe ever since oil was discovered and has been identified with a range of acute and long-term adverse health effects and diseases, including a variety of different types of cancer and Leukemia. Benzene exposures usually occur in refineries that refine and produce oil containing petroleum products, including motor fuels and solvents. Benzene was first extracted from coal gas by oil scrubbing in the 1860's by Badische Company in Germany. Benzene has been identified as an aromatic hydrocarbon with a gasoline-like odor that is clear, colorless substance that is highly flammable and volatile. The chemical substance known as Benzene is manufactured in industry that has been utilized in industrial solvents such as paints, varnishes, lacquer thinners, gasoline, etc.
Aromatic compounds are common pollutants in the effluents of several industries. Among these aromatic pollutants, aniline (slightly yellow-to-brown, clear oily liquid, Specific gravity: 1.02) is very hazardous compound to humans as well as the environment. Aniline and its derivatives are used as intermediates for the manufacturing of various synthetic compounds such as dyestuffs, rubbers, UNDER PEER REVIEW 2 pesticides, plastics and paints. However, the aniline-laden wastewater discharged from these industries has become a severe environmental problem as well.

Whey is a by-product of the cheese-making process which represents 90% of the volume and 50% of the solids of milk used in the manufacture of cheese. It is a very dilute
It also has commercial application if the manufacture of spray-dried products, fiber optics, carbon black, the production of pigments, and the application of pesticides. In addition, the chemical properties of aerosols allow us to evaluate their capability to become airborne particulate hazards.

The release of volatile aromatic organic compounds into the environment is a serious problem as they distribute between the different phases in natural systems. Sediments can be considered as a sink for volatile aromatic organic compounds because of their hydrophobic nature and the resulting affinity to the sediment 's organic matter. Organic matter consists of soft carbon, where portioning is the main sorption process and hard carbon, where pore filling mechanisms dominate (Zhao et al., 2002; Chai et al., 2006). Consequently, sorption/desorption processes are the most important factors that determine the fate of volatile aromatic organic compounds in the environment. The extensive production and release of aromatic organic compounds has led to a widespread contamination of soils and sediments with these pollutants throughout the world, threatening drinking water resources, especially petroleum hydrocarbons as constituents of gasoline such as Benzene, 1,2 dichlorobenzene, Toluene and m-xylene. It was proposed that sorption of the sorbate molecules may cause deformation of flexible sorbent solids, such as natural organic matter and organo-clays resulting in an entrapment of sorbed molecules during desorption (Weber et al., 2002; Lu and Pignatello, 2004). Several researchers have tried to associate the maximum sorption capacities of organic compounds with the sorbed amounts in the slow and very slow desorbing domains (Van Heuvel et al., 2005; Van Heuvel and
