Abstract

With the development of human society, the problem of environmental pollution caused by human factors is becoming more and more serious, and the resulting human health risks are becoming increasingly prominent. Based on the English literature on health risk assessment published in recent years, this paper summarizes the value of health risk assessment parameters for heavy metal pollutants, organic pollutants, and other indicators in soil. On this basis, the shortcomings of current health risk assessment and possible future research directions are discussed.
