Furans & Dioxins(FD) need to fixed with higher interest rate for sustainable tomorrow
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 9
Abstract
Dioxins are a group of closely related tricyclic chlorinated aromatic chemical compounds which are produced as a result of burning of chlorinated substance the most common practice is during incineration of PVC(Poly-Vinyl Chloride). It can also be formed during combustion processes in the presence of chlorine and organic matter. Dioxins so defined are the most harmful chemical to human health as they are carcinogenic. An effect on health includes developmental & reproductive toxicity. Global distribution of Dioxins occurs largely by atmospheric transport and to a lesser extent by oceanic currents. Prior to analysis sample preparation is needed which comprises of extraction, purification and concentration as determination is done at the level of parts per trillion/parts per quadrillion level with highly sophisticated analytical instrumentation, i.e. Gas chromatography coupled to High Resolution Mass Spectrometry (HR- GCMS) because of significant hazard which dioxin can cause there is a need to monitor this pollutant at a much lower order of magnitude than for any other atmospheric pollutant for a better and sustainable tomorrow.
