摘要：
This study conducts risk assessment for an array of health effects that may result from exposure to disinfection by-products (DBPs). An analysis of the relationship between exposure and health-related outcomes is conducted. The trihalomethanes (THMs) species have been verified as the principal DBPs in the drinking water disinfection process. The data used in this study was collected from the Taiwan Water Corporation (TWC) from 1998 to 2002. Statistical analysis, multistage of Benchmark model, Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) and sensitive analysis were used to estimate the cancer risk analysis and assessment. This study included the statistical data analysis, epidemiology investigation and cancer risk assessment of THMs species in drinking water in Taiwan. It is more significant to establish an assessment procedure for the decision making in policy of drinking water safety predominantly.
