Abstract

Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin and dibenzofuran concentrations in samples collected from the open-burnt municipal landfill site at Marka/Amman were analyzed. Six samples were collected from different locations distributed over the area of the landfill. The PCDD/PCDF concentrations ranged from 8.2 to 1,470 ng TEQ (BGA)/kg d.w. The total concentrations of PCDD/PCDF were between 685 and 112,300 ng/kg d.w. It was found that in all waste samples the total concentrations increased from Octa-CDD to Tetra-CDD and from Octa-CDF to Tetra-CDF.
