Impacto y riesgo ambiental de un sitio contaminado con Bifenilos Policlorados en Alpuyeca, Morelos
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
Este trabajo presenta el análisis de riesgo, que muestra valores de 2.2 x10-1 mg (kg día)-1 superior al rango de x10-4 a x10-6 aceptable de la US-EPA para riesgos cancerigenos es decir, los ciudadanos expuestos a los bifenilos policlorados por todos los medios y rutas estudiadas, enfrentan un riesgo de contraer cáncer de 211 personas en una población de un millón. Los estudios de exposición en animales a estos contaminantes han demostrado la incidencia de cáncer (clasificación B2 de la US-EPA) por lo cual, se considera prudente limitar la exposición de humanos. Los resultados del presente estudio proveen las bases científicas para el establecimiento de acciones de prevención, control y restauración por parte de los tomadores de decisiones y autoridades correspondientes. Razón por la cual se sugiere la alternativa de llevar acabo la excavación y eliminación de los capacitores del foco de contaminación y la remediación del suelo circundante mediante las técnicas de bioremediación “in-situ”
