Abstract |
The document contains the quantative expressions of public cancer risks for 6 inorganic arsenic source categories. For primary and secondary lead smelters, primary zinc smelters, zinc oxide plants, cotton gins and arsenic chemical plants, numerical expressions are presented of public exposure to ambient air concentrations of inorganic arsenic estimated to be caused by emissions from stationary sources. In addition, a dose-response model is outlined that numerically relates the degree of exposure to airborne inorganic arsenic to the risk of getting lung cancer. |
