Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons within the vicinity of a scrap-iron smelting plant: indoor-outdoor and seasonal pattern, source, and exposure risk assessment.
The growing demand for ferrous metals and abundant scrap materials has fueled Nigeria's scrap-iron smelting industry, leading to hazardous pollutant emissions. This study investigated the concentrations, seasonal and indoor-outdoor variations, origins, and health impacts of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in dust samples around a scrap-iron smelting facility. Analyses of dust samples revealed that high molecular weight PAHs (HMWPAHs) dominated during both seasons, with 5-ring PAHs (34%) contributing most during the rainy season and 3-ring PAHs (36%) during the dry season. Carcinogenic PAHs were more prevalent in the rainy season compared to the dry season. Seven PAH sources were identified, with gasoline combustion being the dominant source during the rainy season and iron and steel production during the dry season. Incremental lifetime cancer risk (ILCR) assessments showed PAH concentrations within safe limits, with dermal contact identified as the primary exposure pathway for both children and adults in the study area.
期刊介绍：
International Journal of Environmental Health Research ( IJEHR ) is devoted to the rapid publication of research in environmental health, acting as a link between the diverse research communities and practitioners in environmental health. Published articles encompass original research papers, technical notes and review articles. IJEHR publishes articles on all aspects of the interaction between the environment and human health. This interaction can broadly be divided into three areas: the natural environment and health – health implications and monitoring of air, water and soil pollutants and pollution and health improvements and air, water and soil quality standards; the built environment and health – occupational health and safety, exposure limits, monitoring and control of pollutants in the workplace, and standards of health; and communicable diseases – disease spread, control and prevention, food hygiene and control, and health aspects of rodents and insects. IJEHR is published in association with the International Federation of Environmental Health and includes news from the Federation of international meetings, courses and environmental health issues.
