Uncontrolled e-waste recycling has led to widespread heavy metal contamination in foodstuffs, house dust, farm soil, and groundwater in this region. Of the vegetable samples, 50 percent, 39 percent, 14 percent, and 6 percent exceeded China's MPCs for Cd, Pb, Cu, and Zn, respectively. The mean Cd, Pb, and Cu concentrations in rice were two times higher than the national MPCs. The metal concentrations in the meats were significantly below the MPCs, except for the Pb concentrations which exceeded the national safe limit in approximately 35 percent of the samples. The correlations among the metals suggest that uncontrolled e-waste recycling has led to widespread pollution of heavy metals in dust and soil in this area. Rice, vegetables, and house dust make the largest contributions to the non-carcinogenic risk of exposure to heavy metals for the average adults and children in this region. Particularly notable is that young children are at high risk of Pb exposure from house dust. Drinking water is safe for metal exposure, but groundwater will pose a significant risk for families that use it for drinking and cooking. The potential cancer risks from oral intake of Pb for average children are out of the safe acceptable range of the US EPA. Our findings also indicate that the risk (both carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic) from oral exposure is much higher than the risk from inhalation and dermal contact with house dust.
