Heavy metals in size-segregated particulate matter (PM) were investigated in a Chinese megacity, and an advanced model was developed to quantify source-specific risks focusing on size-segregated respiratory exposure. Incremental lifetime cancer risk (ILCR) and non-cancer risk (hazard quotient: HQ) based on deposition concentrations of heavy metals displayed a peak at 4.7-5.8 µm. The percentage contributions to cancer risk were as follows: industrial emission (IE, 34%) > secondary and transport (ST, 29%) > resuspended dust (RD, 21%) > coal combustion (CC, 11%) > traffic emission (TE, 4%) during spring and summer (SS), and CC (31%) > ST (26%) > IE (21%) > RD (11%) ≈ TE (11%) during autumn and winter (AW). RD (41% of HQ during SS, 28% during AW) and IE (45% of HQ during SS, 35% during AW) dominated non-cancer risk. ILCR and HQ of CC were high at sizes 1.1-2.1 µm and 0.43-0.65 µm; those of RD were high at sizes > 3.3 µm; and those of IE were bimodal at fine (<2.1 µm) and coarse (>2.1 µm) sizes, respectively. Cancer risk was more susceptible to small particles than non-cancer risk, partly because higher ILCR was from CC, but higher HQ was attributed by RD.
在中国的一个特大城市中研究了按粒径分布的颗粒物(PM)中的重金属,开发了一种先进的模型,用于定量特定源的风险,重点是按粒径分布的呼吸暴露。基于重金属沉积浓度的增量终身癌症风险(ILCR)和非癌症风险(危害系数:HQ)在 4.7-5.8 µm 处呈现峰值。癌症风险的百分比贡献如下:工业排放(IE,34%)>二次和传输(ST,29%)>再悬浮粉尘(RD,21%)>煤燃烧(CC,11%)>交通排放(TE,4%)在春季和夏季(SS),而 CC(31%)> ST(26%)> IE(21%)> RD(11%)≈TE(11%)在秋季和冬季(AW)。RD(SS 期间 HQ 的 41%,AW 期间 HQ 的 28%)和 IE(SS 期间 HQ 的 45%,AW 期间 HQ 的 35%)主导非癌症风险。CC 的 ILCR 和 HQ 在 1.1-2.1 µm 和 0.43-0.65 µm 尺寸处较高;RD 的 HQ 在>3.3 µm 尺寸处较高;IE 的 HQ 在细颗粒(<2.1 µm)和粗颗粒(>2.1 µm)处呈双峰分布。癌症风险比非癌症风险更容易受到小颗粒的影响,部分原因是 CC 导致更高的 ILCR,但更高的 HQ 归因于 RD。
