초록

본 연구는 공단지역의 대기 시료를 이용하여 다환방향족 탄화수소(Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons, PAHs)의 농도수준, 분포특성 및 생체 중 농도에 관하여 조사하였다. 시료는 공단지역 및 주변지역 4개 지점에서 채취하였으며, 지역적 특성에 따라 다환방향족 탄화수소(PAHs) 농도의 변화를 다음 결과에 나타내었다. 공단지역의 대기 중 다환방향족탄화수소화합물 (PAHs)의 평균농도 수준은 $14.52{\sim}193.48ng/m^3$로 조사되었다. 발암가능물질 6종 PAHcarc.의 평균농도 수준은 $1.65{\sim}13.44ng/m^3$로 나타났다. 농도 수준은 대체적으로 낮았지만 제철동지점은 지속적인 관심이 필요한 지역으로 조사되었다. 모든 지점의 대기 시료에서 벤조(a)피렌(Benzo(a)pyrene)의 검출이 확인되었으나 농도는 높지 않았다. 그러나 제철동 지점에서 벤조(a)피렌(Benzo(a)pyrene)의 농도는 $2.89ng/m^3$로 유럽연합(EU)의 기준($1ng/m^3$)을 초과하는 것으로 나타났다. 직접노출군 240명의 전혈 중 다환방향족탄화수소화합물(PAHs) 농도수준을 조사한 결과, 남자의 경우 $1.12{\sim}11.45ng/m^3$, 여자의 경우 $1.20{\sim}26.89ng/m^3$로 조사되었다. 성별에 따른 차이는 거의 없는 것으로 나타났다. 고령자의 혈중 다환방향족탄화수소화합물(PAHs) 농도가 높게 나타나 생체 축적성을 예측할 수 있었다. 본 연구결과 공단지역 및 주변지역은 다환방향족탄화수소 화합물(PAHs) 및 환경오염물질의 영향을 받고 있는 지역으로 공단지역에 대한 환경오염물질 원인배출원에 대한 감시체계의 보완, 집중관리, 지역 주민의 건강 보호를 위하여 보건 환경성질환에 영향을 미치는 위해인자 및 오염물질을 원천적으로 저감하는 작업이 지속적으로 수행되어야 할 시점이다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the concentration levels, distribution characteristics and blood concentration of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) at ambient air in Industrial Complex Area. The samples were collected at 4 sites in Industrial Complex Area and its vicinities. The result indicated that there was the difference of PAHs concentration as followed local characteristics. The level of average concentration of PAHs in the air in Industrial Complex Area was $14.52{\sim}193.48ng/m^3$. The level of average concentration of six materials with possibility of cancer creation was $1.65{\sim}13.44ng/m^3$. The concentrations of PAHs were generally low, but Jechul-dong is considered an area where consistent monitoring of PAHs is required. In addition, benzo(a)pyrene was detected in every atmospheric sample, however the concentration was not high. The level of concentration of benzo(a)pyrene in the air in the Jechul-dong was $2.89ng/m^3$. But, the concentration of the PAHs in Jechul-dong showed that the Benzo(a)pyrene concentration is above $1ng/m^3$ of air quality standard(EU). The results of the concentration level of PAHs in the blood from 240 persons who were exposed directly were surveyed, it was $1.12{\sim}11.45ng/m^3$ for man and $1.20{\sim}26.89ng/m^3$ for woman. It was indicated that the difference between the genders was very little. The accumulation inside human was anticipated as the PAHs concentration in the blood for the aged was very high. Industrial Complex Area and its vicinities are an area which has been greatly influenced by PAHs and environmental contaminants. It is necessary to control the emission sources of PAHs and to construct an observation system at Industrial Complex Area from now on. It is time to reduce the risk factors for health and environmental disease to protect the health of resident in Industrial Complex Area and its vicinities.
