Abstract :

Abstract: Particulate matter 2.5 is one  of the six pollutants most harmful to and can cause COPD. The aim of this study was to analyze risk exposure of fine particles and occurrence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in boiler workers in glue factory, Probolinggo. This is cross sectional analytical observational. The research sample was 11 people and fine particles. The collected data were analyzed with environmental health risk analysis methods and fisher’s exact test. The  result showed that the  highest fine particles  measurement was  60.27  µg/m3.  The  main sources of fine particles pollutant came from the fumes of tank truck and back  hoe,  smoke, coal, fly ash, and bottom ash. Environmental  health risk analysis  showed that during  their lenght  of service, workers  safe  to work in that area with concentration of fine particles  as measured. Fisher’s Exact test  statistic  for the variable of smoking habits,  smoking severity,  and  age  was not significant.  Whereas, for risk quotient  variable, statistical  result is undefined because the risk quotient  value of all workers are safe. Since the company stands to this study has not found  the incidence of COPD due  to exposure of fine particles on Boiler workers in glue factory. However, the factory ought  to measure fine particles routinely for ensure that the concentration of fine particles  doesn’t exceed the TLV.
