Title

HEALTH ENDPOINT ATTRIBUTED TO SULFUR DIOXIDE AIR POLLUTANTS

Pages

  15-19

Abstract

 Background: SULFUR DIOXIDE is a colorless gas, released from burning of coal, high-sulfur coal, and diesel fuel. SULFUR DIOXIDE harms human HEALTH by reacting with the moisture in the nose, nasal cavity and throat and this is the way by which it destroys the nerves in the respiratory system.Objectives: The aim of this study was to focus on identifying the effects associated with SULFUR DIOXIDE on HEALTH in Ahvaz, IRAN.Materials and Methods: Data collections were performed by Ahvaz meteorological organization and the department of environment. Sampling was performed for 24 hours in four stations. Methods of sampling and analysis were according to US environmental protection agency (EPA) guideline. Afterwards, we processed the raw data including instruction set correction of averaging, coding and filtering by Excel software and then, the impact of meteorological parameters were converted as the input file to the AirQ model. Finally, we calculated the HEALTH effects of exposure to SULFUR DIOXIDE.Results: According to the findings, the concentration of SULFUR DIOXIDE in Ahvaz had an annual average of 51 mg/m3. Sum of the numbers of hospital admissions for respiratory diseases attributed to SULFUR DIOXIDE was 25 cases in 2012. Approximately, 5% of the total hospital admissions for respiratory disease and respiratory mortality happened when SULFUR DIOXIDE concentration was more than 10 mg/m3.Conclusions: According to the results of this study, this increase could be due to higher fuel consumption, usage of gasoline in vehicles, oil industry, and steel and heavy industries in Ahwaz. The risk of mortality and morbidity were detected at the current concentrations of AIR POLLUTANTS.
