Abstract
This paper presents the experimental results to analyze the atomization characteristics and environmental impact of cutting fluid in grinding process. Grinding is a major machining process to improve surface quality with different machining mechanism which is compared with turning or milling process. The environmental impact due to aerosol generation via grinding process is a major concern associated with environmental consciousness. Experimental results show that the generated fine aerosol which particle size less than 10 micron appears near working zone under given operational conditions. The aerosol concentration is much higher enough to affect human health risk with its generated aerosol quantities. This study can be provided a basic knowledge fur further research of environmental consciousness machining development.
