metadata.value: The purpose of this study is to assess the risk of developing non-carcinogenic effects for public
  health due to the release of chemicals into the air from medical waste incinerators. An assessment
  of the public health risk observed in monitoring the growth of waste consumption
  is necessary to determine the likelihood of adverse effects on organs and systems. The study
  included the analysis and ranking of chemicals that are part of the industrial emissions of
  enterprises burning medical waste, emission dispersion modeling with calculation of ground
  concentrations and assessment of non-carcinogenic risks to public health. Analysis of noncarcinogenic
  health risks showed the likelihood of adverse effects on organs and systems.
  It has been established that the maximum levels of chronic non-carcinogenic risk during inhalation
  intake of pollutants from the atmospheric air (in the zone of influence of the medical
  waste incineration enterprise no. 1) are noted for such components such as sulfur dioxide,
  benzo/a/pyrene, and in the zone of influence of the medical waste incinerator no. 2 — for
  sulfur dioxide, benz/a/pyrene, nitrogen dioxide and suspended solids. The maximum values
  of the total hazard indices exceed the permissible values for the impact on the respiratory
  organs, cases of additional mortality, development processes, the immune system, and the
  hematopoietic system. These levels of risk from exposure to medical waste incinerators have
  been assessed as unacceptable for the public. The study confirms the need to develop practical
  recommendations and preventive measures to reduce the impact of chemical factors on
  public health.
