battery recycling plant - Opis:
- The aim of this study was to look at the risk of community around the battery recycling plant in terms of the exposure to lead dust. The number of respondents amounted to 60 people from an industrial area and a residential area. The sample of the industrial area included 30 respondents with a composition of 15 men and 15 women. The same number of respondents was also examined in the residential area as a control area, located 5 km from the industrial area. Respirable dust was measured using a personal dust sampler, the concentration of lead in dust was measured using GF-AAS, while as a biomarker of exposure, the lead content in urine was measured using GF-AAS. The average values for respirable lead in industrial and residential areas are 0.92 μg/m3 and 0.92–1.34 μg/m3. The analysis of the lead content in urine for the industrial and residential areas produced an average value of 119 ppb and 123 ppb. The average value of HI for the lead exposure on the industrial and residential areas are in danger (HI > 1) which is 3.6 ± 1.94 and 2.18 ± 1.49. The OR values for the respondents in the industrial area compared to the residential areas amounting to 1.17 for the category of HI lead exposure and 1.22 for the category of lead in urine.
