Abstract

Background: The most exhaust-gas produced by motor vehicles consists of 71% carbon monoxide and it
becomes an impact on air pollution and human health risk. This study aims to analyze the environmental
health risk health of carbon monoxide exposure to high activity communities at X Street, Yogyakarta.
Method: This study was an observational study with Environmental Health Risk Analysis (EHRA) approach.
This study was conducted in 2019 with 269 respondents. The respondents were chosen by using a purposive
sampling method with the criteria; they had been work five years and a minimum age of nineteen years old.
Besides, carbon monoxide measurement was conducted in three zones.
Findings: The average carbon monoxide concentration was 7,5035 mg/m3,Weight (Wb) median was 60
kg,Exposure time (tE) was 11 hours/day,Exposure duration (Dt) was 10 years, and Inhalation rate (R) was
0,83 m3
/hour. Besides, the intake real-time value of non-carcinogen was 0,395 mg/kg/day with 0,329 of Risk
Quotient (RQ) level. There were sixteen respondents with (RQ>1) value that might have the risk. Hence,
risk management was needed by decreasing the concentration value and the inhalation rate.
Conclusion: The main risk of carbon monoxide exposure was a respiratory disorder in real-time and
lifetime duration. The Technical Implementation Unit of Environmental Agency needed ISPU measurement
by routinely to monitor the carbon monoxide at X Street and recommended to use the Personal Protective
Equipment (PPE) or mask.
