Urbanization generates increased amounts of solid wastes in cities and as a consequence leads to high air pollution levels. As a result of these trends, the subject of air quality management for sustainable concept of cities has received increasing attention. This work characterized volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions and health effects at different processing stages in a recycling facility for waste paper and cardboard. The highest total VOC levels were observed in the conveyor belt line one (5.23 ± 0.33 mg/m3), followed by a baling machine (1.38 ± 0.07 mg/m3), conveyor belt line two (1.34 ± 0.08 mg/m3), tipping floor line one (1.22 ± 0.07 mg/m3), and manual separation line one (1.20 ± 0.06 mg/m3). Hence, exposure to VOCs lead to high health risks in this PCSWRF, especially at the manual separation stage (HQ = 2.7–3 and lifetime cancer risks (LTCRs) = 1.11 × 10−4 - 1.03 × 10−4), and strategies such as adjustment of the factory to enclose the conveyors, designing proper ventilation and air conditioning systems, minimization of VOC-contaminated waste generation (pre-treatment), and using personal protective equipment should be considered to eliminate pollutants and to protect workers from the non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic effects.

纸和纸板回收过程中挥发性有机化合物排放的特征和健康影响

城市化在城市中产生了大量的固体废物,结果导致高空气污染水平。由于这些趋势,城市可持续概念的空气质量管理这一主题已受到越来越多的关注。这项工作表征了废纸和纸板回收设施中不同处理阶段的挥发性有机化合物(VOC)排放和健康影响。在第一条传送带线路中观察到最高的总VOC水平(5.23±0.33 mg / m 3),随后是打包机(1.38±0.07 mg / m 3),第二条传送带线路(1.34±0.08 mg / m 3)),倾倒地板线一(1.22±0.07 mg / m 3)和手动分隔线一(1.20±0.06 mg / m 3)。因此,暴露于挥发性有机化合物导致高健康风险在这种PCSWRF,特别是在手动分离阶段(HQ = 2.7-3和寿命的癌症风险(LTCRs)= 1.11×10 -4 - 1.03×10 -4),和策略这样的应考虑调整工厂以封闭传送带,设计适当的通风和空调系统,减少受VOC污染的废物(预处理)并使用个人防护设备,以消除污染物并保护工人免受非致癌和致癌作用。
