西安市新装修公共场所空气污染物浓度分析及健康风险评价

In order to understand the levels of indoor air pollution and health risks in public places, our research group conducted air quality monitoring and human health risk assessments for five types of public places (offices, classrooms, laboratories, banks, and hospitals) in Xi'an City from December 2017 to July 2020. The test items included formaldehyde, benzene, toluene, xylene, n-butyl acetate, ethylbenzene, styrene, n-undecane, and total volatile organic compounds (TVOC). The results showed that formaldehyde had the highest exceedance rate (59.4%), followed by toluene, TVOC, benzene, and xylene. Among the five types of public places, hospitals had the highest rate of pollutants exceeding the standard (46.7%), and the main pollutants exceeding the standard were formaldehyde, benzene, and toluene. The results showed that the concentrations of formaldehyde and TVOC were positively correlated with temperature and humidity. The health risk assessment results showed that there were carcinogenic risks of formaldehyde and benzene in different places; people working in banks had a higher risk of formaldehyde carcinogenesis, and those working in hospitals had a higher risk of benzene carcinogenesis. This study provides a reference for the level of indoor air pollution in public places in Xi'an City, and is of great significance to the health risk research of related populations.
