국문 초록
Background: PM2.5 absorbs harmful chemicals and can lead to serious illnesses such as cancer, while heavy
metals are known to be highly toxic. Compared to the general atmosphere, industrial complexes exhibit
higher concentrations of heavy metals, necessitating health assessments for nearby residents. Busan, which
has the highest number of industrial complexes in South Korea, is an area likely to display an impact on the
health of local residents.
Objectives: This study aims to investigate the distribution of PM2.5 and heavy metal concentrations in the
areas surrounding the Sinpyeong and Jangrim industrial complexes and to assess the health risks among
nearby residents, providing fundamental data for future environmental improvements in these industrial
complexes.
Methods: Heavy metal concentrations in PM2.5 were measured at five locations near the Sinpyeong and
Jangrim industrial complexes in Busan. A concentration distribution analysis and a health risk assessment
were conducted for five heavy metals (Ni, As, Cd, Cr6+, and Mn) based on toxicity information provided by
the United States Environmental Protection Agency.
Results: The average PM2.5 concentration at the five measurement locations ranged from 12.87 to 15.42 μg/m3,
while the heavy metal concentrations were as follows: Ni 4.14 ng/m3, As 6.22 ng/m3, Cd 1.20 ng/m3, Cr6+ 0.81
ng/m3, and Mn 14.44 ng/m3. The cancer risk assessment indicated that at both exposure levels (CTE and
RME) and across all measurement sites, the concentrations of As and Cr6+ exceeded the acceptable risk level
(1.0E-06) established in this study.
Conclusions: This study analyzed the distribution characteristics of heavy metal concentrations by
subdividing the areas near the Sinpyeong and Jangrim industrial complexes in Busan. It confirmed cancer
risks associated with inhaling heavy metals through a health risk assessment. The significance of this study
lies in identifying priority management targets for consideration when developing future measures to reduce
heavy metal exposure.
