ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the distribution and environmental pollution of dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls(PCBs) in a place of disused transformer and other electronic waste disassembled. Methods The ambient air, aerosol, water, soil and vegetable samples were collected to analyze the dioxin-like PCBs level with isotope internal standards and HRGC-HRMS techniques. Results The concentration of dioxin-like PCBs in ambient air was 4 031.77-4 942.34 pg/m3(namely 1.832-2.666 pg TEQ/m3), while in aerosol it was 325.45-3 499.77 pg/m3(0.370 9-1.536 3 pg TEQ/m3). In the soil sample, the value was 2 316.59-19 100.30 pg/g(1.358-15.264 pg TEQ/g) dry weight. In water it was 5.731-237.640 ng/L(2.585-73.046 pg TEQ/L). In vegetable it was 1 078.45-1 620.04 pg/g(0.778 3-1.126 2 pg TEQ/g) wet weight. In all air, aerosol, soil, water and vegetable samples, the content of PCB-118 was the most. PCB-126 had the highest TEQ value. In non-ortho PCBs, PCB-77 was of maximum content. In mono-ortho PCBs, PCB-118 was the most, and the followings were PCB-105, PCB-156 and PCB-167. All the 12 kinds of PCBs were investigated in all samples except PCB-169 absent in ambient air. Conclusions The investigated area around the disassembly of obsolete solid waste has been badly contaminated by dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls(PCBs), and PCBs already exist in the vegetables. According to the results of the present paper, some further studies should be carried out to evaluate the toxic effects on food and people health.
