During the first half of the twentieth century, evidence was mounting to show that
breathing in sites with asbestos fibers caused scarring in the lungs. Asbestos dust exposure
in the workplace was not controlled at that time. England was the first place during the
1930s where steps were taken to protect workers in the asbestos industry by installing
ventilation and exhaust emissions systems. However, during the major shipbuilding efforts
of World War II, large numbers of workers were exposed to elevated levels of asbestos.
General objective
The objective of this work is to review the properties of asbestos, the harmful conditions for
the environment and human health.

Despite the fact that asbestos was a widely used compound, its production and
commercialization was prohibited due to the environmental contamination problems it
caused. Vibration, physical damage and deterioration with use cause asbestos fibers to
disintegrate and become incorporated into the environment, contaminating it.
Asbestos is considered a special hazardous waste according to the waste catalogue; it must
be collected separately from the rest of the waste and must be packed and labeled using
very careful methods. It is necessary to continuously ensure compliance with the
regulations, both at the time of authorization or building permit and during the inspection
