10. Pollution. Hygiene. Safety
We will only deal here with the problems or risks associated with the specific use of the four cutting processes, to the exclusion of more general risks such as the use of compressed gases, high voltages and so on. These processes may give rise to atmospheric, noise or optical pollution. When water is used, it is also polluted.
