This document summarizes the prevalence and health risks of silica exposure in India. Some key points:
- Silica is widely distributed in soil and the earth's crust. Many occupational and non-occupational exposures exist through industries, mining, construction, agriculture, and windblown dust.
- High levels of silica exposure are common in many parts of India and can cause respiratory diseases like bronchitis, pneumoconiosis, and silicosis. These diseases often go undiagnosed and are difficult to treat.
- Modern medicine has not found effective treatments for silica-induced diseases. However, an Ayurvedic formulation called Kamadgiri was found to significantly reduce cough and

Determination of suspended pm in atomosphereECRD2015
This document provides details on the high volume method for determining suspended particulate matter concentrations in ambient air. Key points:
- Air is drawn through a size-selective inlet and filter at a rate of 1132 L/min. Particulate matter with aerodynamic diameters less than the inlet cut-point are collected on the filter.
- The mass of particulate matter is determined by the difference in pre-and post-sampling filter weights. Concentration is calculated by dividing the weight gain by the air volume sampled.
- The method is applicable for measuring suspended particulate matter concentrations ranging from approximately 3.5 to 1000 μg/m3, depending on factors like sample duration and aerosol composition.
This document provides an overview of technology strategy and ERP needs assessments. It discusses defining a technology strategy that aligns IT with business goals, including understanding business processes, culture, current IT systems, and external influences to determine a technology roadmap. It also discusses when an ERP system upgrade may be needed, including warning signs of outdated systems and a process for evaluating, documenting, and selecting a new ERP solution.

Indoor air quality is influenced by emissions from building materials, products, combustion, and outdoor pollution infiltrating indoors. Common indoor pollutants can cause sick building syndrome symptoms. Passive sampling is a cost-effective technique for indoor air quality monitoring over long periods. Source control, ventilation, and air cleaning are strategies for reducing indoor pollutants, with source control being most effective. Air cleaners use mechanical filters, electronic methods, or ion generators to remove particulate and gaseous pollutants, with effectiveness depending on device efficiency and air flow rate. Activated carbon, zeolites, and chemisorbents can help filters remove gases and odors through adsorption and chemical reactions.

Hope for the best.
Plan for the worst
(with the best).
2. It’s Simple
Data Backup + Disaster Recovery = Business
Continuity!
Let’s get this out right here at the beginning: at some point
down the road, your data is going to be in danger.
The most common contributing factor in data loss incidents is
low executive support for a fully implemented backup
strategy. Pund-IT considers any backup failure an emergency; we
recommend that all clients consider backup failures as such.
Making a backup and disaster recovery plan calls on you
to take a long, hard look at your business, at your processes, your
software, and so on. And let’s face it, taking the time to evaluate
your business so you know how everything’s working together,
what’s most important, and what’s pulling you back is always a
good thing. If you want to backup your data and services and
then be able to recover them quickly if there’s a disaster, you
need to know where that data is, what those services are, and
you need to be able to prioritize them. Which data and services
absolutely must be online first? How long can you really go
without critical and noncritical data and services? How much
does downtime really cost you? Finding the answers to these and
other related questions is at the heart of solid backup and
disaster recovery. Doing so allows you to figure out how to
protect all your data and services, the most efficient order in
which to restore them.
We all know that over the course of time, our lives and
businesses get cluttered and inefficient. In a business setting,
maybe you have a number of different servers you’ve acquired
over the years for different reasons. None of them are being
used as efficiently as they could be. Your data and applications
have grown up in silos, isolated from each other both in physical
location and in functional usefulness.
In short, things can get to be a mess as you push forward,
just trying to run your business. But by taking the time to
evaluate these things from the perspective of backup and
disaster recovery, you can trim the fat, so to speak.

your business is protected.

3. It Makes You More Efficient
Streamlining your business opens the door for all kinds of disaster recovery
goodness. Having a plan in place that takes advantage of current technologies puts
you in a position to save time not only during a disaster, but in the maintenance of
your data and applications as well. So not only can you reduce the time techs are
spending on backup and disaster recovery, but you can protect more of your data
and applications.
It Saves You Money
There’s no doubt that efficient companies save money. If you know what all your IT
is doing and you’ve organized things so that you’re making the best use of what you
have, you’re not going to waste money on worthless cycles. As IT becomes more and
more the framework on which successful businesses are built, that efficiency
becomes increasingly important.
It Makes You Money
How do you make money? You sell a product. You provide a service. But all of that
relies on one crucial thing: your business actually being operational. It seems
obvious, but sometimes the truth gets lost in the scuffle. Every time you’re hit by a
disaster, whether large or small, catastrophic or simply annoying, your ability to
operate is compromised & resources are drained.
It Keeps You Out of Jail
Money and time. These are the most obvious reasons to update your backup and
disaster recovery solution. But there is another even more important reason. In fact,
depending on your industry, backup and disaster recovery might be the law. You
should take time to understand any regulatory requirements placed on your
business. Chances are they require some kind of backup or disaster recovery.
And Because, Natural Disasters Really do Happen
For some executives, the statistical improbability of a catastrophic event makes
backup and disaster recovery a difficult sell. But improbable or not, natural disasters
do happen and they can destroy your business if you let them. If by this point,
you’re not considering a backup and disaster recovery solution, then you’re most
likely doomed to hemorrhage money from every disaster.
As you develop and implement a backup and disaster recovery solution, you’ll find that when there is a
disaster, whether it’s a problem with your email or a downed power line, you’ll recover much more
efficiently. When you’re disaster-free, you’ll spend less time managing your data and applications and more
time focusing on your business. So why should you invest in a backup & disaster recovery plan? Well
because…
4. How Can We Help?
Let’s accelerate your business with technology and creativity!
Backups automate and insulate your business
from a myriad of common and rare risks. A well-
implemented backup strategy requires little time
to maintain.
Pund-IT espouses three copies of all
valuable data, throw of which are local (and
independent), and one of which is intrinsically
elsewhere. In practice, the three copies are
generally the primary storage (the server that
holds the live data), a local system image backup
(stored on a separate system from the live data),
and a remote backup tool that makes ongoing
copies of the live data to a remote data center. By
default, Pund-IT recommends retaining annual
backups for seven years.
The importance of adopting backup as a
central tenant of the business culture cannot be
overstated. Pund-IT considers any backup failure
an emergency; we recommend that all clients
consider backup failures as such.
Pund-IT calls every discrete collection of
data (be it a server, or a special distinct service on
a server) a "resource". The goal of the backup
strategy is to identify the resources, rate the
impact of that resource being unexpectedly
unavailable, identify what risks apply to each
resource, and then ensure that each resource has
appropriate backup/ restorability protections.
Let us help evaluate your backup &
disaster recovery plan. Talk to us.

In designing a strategy for you, we are
primarily concerned with the following risks:
ü Device failure: disks, servers, power
supplies, etc, fail without warning.
ü User error: often considered the most
common source of data loss. The human
element accidentally deletes data,
overwrites data, sets off viruses, loses or
destroys gear.
ü Environmental events: Fire, flood, roof
failure, lightning, and so forth. Rare, but
generally extensive and profound in
terms of impact .
ü Legal: No matter how ethical a job is
done, disputes are always a
risk. Recording details, documenting
points in time, and storing in a tampering
resistant system can provide the material
needed to defend the company's
interests.
ü Business Risks: 3rd party (SaaS) providers
may not provide the service expected or
cease operations. Control these risks
with in-house resources and provide
diversity for critical resources.
