Abstract: Objective To evaluate the health risk of drinking water in Qingdao from 2014 to 2019, and thus to provide the data basis for the drinking water risk management. Methods Totally 2 963 samples of drinking water from 2014 to 2019 in 10 districts of Qingdao were collected, and the risk assessment model recommended by the United States Environmental Protection Agency(US EPA)was applied to evaluate the health risks caused by 17 chemical pollutants in drinking water. Results The highest carcinogenic risk of adult caused by drinking water was cadmium(carcinogenic risk was 1.94×10-5), followed by chromium and arsenic. The carcinogenic risks of all six chemical pollutants showed an overall downward trend in 6 years. Fluoride had the highest non-carcinogenic risk(hazard quotient was 0.31), followed by nitrate and arsenic. There was no statistically significant difference in carcinogenic risk between men and women. Arsenic, chromium, chloroform, and carbon tetrachloride showed statistically different carcinogenetic risks between finished water and tap water(all P<0.05). The carcinogenic risk of chloroform in the high flow period was greater than that in the low flow period(P=0.009). Conclusion The health risk of drinking water in Qingdao is below the maximum acceptable risk level recommended by US EPA. The health risks of 17 chemical pollutants are at an acceptable level and will not cause obvious health risk for adult. The carcinogenic risks of cadmium, arsenic and chromium and the non-carcinogenic risks of fluoride, nitrate nitrogen and arsenic are relatively high, and should be given priority attention in drinking water risk management.

Key words: Health risk assessment, Drinking water, Chemical pollutants, Carcinogenic risk, Non-carcinogenic risk
