ANALITIC CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING THE LINK BETWEEN AIR POLLUTION WITH BENZENE AND NASOPHARYNGEAL CANCER
The analytic paper presents the important aspects and relations for reporting the benzene pollutant emissions and some carcinogenic effects. In the present work are outlined some aspects of a particular molecular mixture between 6 atoms of carbon and 6 atoms of hydrogen, namely the benzene and its influence on health state. Benzene is a carcinogen for humans, class A1 of toxicity. Cancers affecting the respiratory tract, including both nasopharyngeal cancer and lung cancer, are strongly associated with pollution from coal and other solid fuel burning. Tobacco has been viewed as the major risk for respiratory cancers and it is an important source of benzene. Preventive steps to curtail the many sources of air pollution by improving living conditions and reducing the occupational exposure hazards are markedly needed to control the incidence of respiratory cancers.
This article presents the state of the art knowledge regarding benzene and its influence. It is a carcinogenic pollutant, because it has a high level of toxicity. The negative carcinogenic effect compared with other factors is accelerated when paired with multiple pollutants. The present paper enriches the knowledge regarding benzene emission reporting by using latest technologies in environment impact control. This has to be a global effort based on multidisciplinary approaches.
