Abstract On the basis of analyzing pollution characteristics of 11kinds of heavy metal elements in atmospheric PM2.5 samples from Jiexiu coking area (JX) and Fangshan control area (FS), the key toxic components that potentially threaten human health and their sources were identified using positive definite matrix factor (PMF) source apportionment, health risk assessment and in vitro cytotoxicity test. The results showed that the concentrations of PM2.5 and its loaded heavy metals in JX exceeded the ambient air quality standards seriously, and exhibited seasonal variation following the sequence of winter > autumn > summer > spring. The total non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic risks of all elements in JX were 2.80 and 2.10 times that of FS, respectively. Except that the annual average concentration of element Cr in JX was lower than that of FS, the concentrations of elements Pb, Cd, Zn, As, Mn, and Sb in JX were 15.9, 9.80, 9.00, 7.40, 7.00 and 4.20 times that of FS, respectively. Among them, Mn, As, Cd, Pb had high non-carcinogenic risks, while Pb also had high carcinogenic risk. Among the 5 major sources of PM2.5-bound heavy metals in JX, coal combustion and coking contributed the most (37.7%), followed by other industrial sources (29.6%), iron and steel smelting sources (20.4%). Coal combustion and coking contributed as high as 38.8% and 44.9% to non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic risks, respectively, and they were the only ones that had a significant positive correlation with cellular oxidative stress and toxicological indicators related to the inflammatory reaction (ROS, TNF-α and IL-1β). Except for As, the carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic levels of other heavy metal elements were within acceptable range, and coal combustion contributed the most to health risks and cytotoxicity.
