Fine particulate matter, Air pollution, Health risk assessment, Hazard quotient (HQ)Abstract
The inhalation of fine particles (PM2.5) has been associated with human health problems, which is affect to respiratory system and mortality. This research aims to investigate PM2.5 released from industrial area of Pluak Daeng district, Rayong province to assess the human health risk. PM2.5 samples were collected on quartz fiber filters using a mini volume air sampler during wet and dry seasons. It was found that the average PM2.5 concentrations in wet season (38.8±25.2 µg/m3) were lower than dry season (52.7±33.9 µg/m3). When wet season were compared with dry season, the average PM2.5 concentrations were not significantly different (p>0.05). Moreover, the health risk assessments of exposure PM2.5 were calculated by Hazard quotient (HQ), the results found that the average HQ values of children in wet and dry season were higher than adult and exceeded 1.0, indicating the potential health risks. Consequently, in the long term, children will uptake more PM2.5 into the respiratory tract than adults. The result of morphology and elemental composition study reveals that PM2.5 were complexed chemistries that usually contained oxygen, iron, magnesium, aluminum, potassium or sodium. It could be released from industrial area.
