| dc.description.abstract | This report deals with the professional engineering experience accrued
by the author during the eight-month internship with Conoco Chemicals in Lake Charles,
Louisiana. Background of the internship is discussed, including the intern's position in the
organization of the plant. Major projects assigned during the internship are defined. The
problem of occupational exposure to vinyl chloride, a toxic chemical, is addressed and a
system for monitoring employee exposure is developed and proposed. The exposure to industrial
noise at the plant is evaluated and recommendations are presented. | en |
