Analysis of HCB and PCBs from synthetic outlets in Japanese paper.docVIP

Analysis of PCBs and HCB in treated final effluent of Japanese paper mills Government of Japan June, 2, 2006 We analyzed polychlorinated biphenyl PCBs and hexachlorobenzene HCB in treated final effluent of four paper mills in 2005. Table 1 shows the results of the analysis. When it is high-precision ex. When determination limit is 1 pg/L , HCB and PCBs may be detected in treated final effluent of paper mills. But the formation and release of HCB and PCBs are less understood from this potential source. Table 1. Results of analysis Paper mills PCBs ng/L HCB ng/L Absorbable Organic Haloge
