本研究旨在探討石油焦各作業勞工PAHs暴露特徵、健康危害風險及勞工PAHs暴露與生物暴露指標之相關性。暴露評估方面主要針對勞工個人呼吸道採樣及皮膚貼布採樣加以評估,並將勞工依工作場所及工作內容區分為前段製程區(n=3)、結焦槽(n=5)、脫水倉(n=4)和廣場作業(n=2)四個相似暴露族群。暴露評估之結果並針對其致肺癌及皮膚癌進行風險評估。勞工生物偵測方面將勞工每日工作前後之尿液進行1-OHP之分析,並藉以探討勞工環境暴露值與生物偵測之相關性。
結果顯示石油焦作業勞工所暴露到的Total-PAHs平均暴露濃度分別為,前段製程:31,931ng/m3、結焦槽區:31,006ng/m3、脫水倉區:34,283ng/m3、廣場焦粉區:29,346ng/m3。本研究發現這四區勞工呼吸道及皮膚暴露之PAHs分別以低分子量PAH與高分子量PAH為主;其致肺癌與致皮膚癌的風險分別為0.70×10-2~1.39×10-2及0.63×10-4~1.12×10-4之間,因此針對石油焦作業勞工之保護應以呼吸暴露防範為優先。石油焦勞工尿中1-OHP的物半衰期平均及範圍分別為15.10及5.39~57.35小時。在環境偵測部份與生物偵測方面,經由多變相線性迴歸發現勞工的抽菸習慣以及工作年資均沒有顯著的意義,但結合個人呼吸道氣、固相及皮膚之PAHs暴露量,可解釋59.8%勞工一天尿中1-OHP濃度的變異量。
The aim of the study was to investigate the characteristics and health risk of petroleum coke workers caused by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs)exposure. The association between personal exposures and biological monitoring was also studied.
Personal respiratory and dermal samples were collected on all selected workers. The works were divided into four similar exposure groups(SEGs)accordind to their working places and contents. The four groups included pre-process operators(n=3), coke tank operators(n=5), dehydration tank operators(n=4)and coke field operators(n=2). Results of personal exposure were further used to assess health-risk of lung cancer and skin cancer. The results of personal exposure measurement show that total-PAHs exposure levels for the four SEGs were 31,931(pre-process), 31,006(coke tank), 34,283(dehydration tank)and 29,346 ng/m3(coke field), respectively.
The data presented that the personal inhalatory and dermal exposure were mainly contributed by the low molecular weight and hight molecular weight PAHs, respectively. The estimated lung cancer and skin cancer risks for all investigated SEGs fell to the range 0.70×10-2~1.39×10-2, and 0.63×10-4~1.12×10-4, respectively. It indicates that the preventing strategy should be focused on inhalator exposures, rather than the dermal contact.
The mean of 1-OHP half-life in petroleum coke workers was 15.10hr ranging from 5.39 to 57.35 hours. By conducting multivariate linear regression analysis, this study found that workers’ smoking habit and working age were not significant, but through the combination of both personal gas- and partical-phase respiratory and dermal exposures would be able to explain 59.8% variations on workers’ daily urinary 1-hydroxypyrene(1-OHP).
