workplace exposure limits to the fumes of burning paraffin wax

Paraffin oil (kerosene) and the solid form paraffin wax are petrochemical fuels and the 'exhaust' from a paraffin candle has been examined by the australian government's national occupational health and safety commission (NOHSC). The NOHSC recommends workplace exposure limits of 2 milligrams of paraffin fume per square metre, over an eight-hour period.
