Black lung disease occurs in people working in – (1) Electroplating industry (2) Organic solvents industry (3) Paint manufacturing industry (4) Coal mines

1 Answer

Answer :

(4) Coal mines Explanation: Coal worker's pneumoconiosis, colloquially referred to as black lung disease, is a lung disease that results from breathing in dust from coal, graphite, or man-made carbon over a long period of time. Inhaled coal dust progressively builds up in the lungs and is unable to be removed by the body; that leads to inflammation, fibrosis, and in worse cases, necrosis.
