    Abstract:
    The disperse phase of waste fumes forming during cold and hot fish smoking was studied by distributing the particles into 6 fractions, by determining phenols, acids, carbonyl compounds, and benz(a)pyrene (BP) in them, and by calculating the hazard index. In the waste fumes of cold smokers, the proportions of phenols, carbonyl compounds, and acid in the formation of the hazard index were shown to be 72.1 +/- 1.5, 19.6 +/- 1.3, and 5.9 +/- 0.3%, respectively. In the waste fumes of hot smokers, these figures were 67.3 +/- 1.1, 20.4 +/- 1.2, and 5.8 +/- 0.3%, i.e. the proportion of phenols in the formation of the hazard index was also prevalent. The hazard index for BP in the waste fumes of cold and hot smokers was 120.9 +/- 1.7 and 230.8 +/- 8.1, respectively, which amounts to 2.4 +/- 0.2 and 6.5 +/- 0.4% of the total hazard of smoke particles.
