Abstract

The changes in isomer pattern of chlorobenzene, chlorophenol and chlorinated dioxin (PCDD) were determined for flue gas samples from a municipal waste incinerator. The isomer specific analysis for PCDDs in flue gas samples collected from different locations in the incinerator revealed a correspondence to the isomer patterns in precursor molecules such as those of chlorophenols. The chlorodioxins substituted in positions 1,3,6,8 and 1,3,7,9 predominated in place of isomers substituted in positions 1,3,7,8, 1,4,7,8 and 1,2,7,8 downstream of the incinerator. This change corresponds closely to the post furnace increase in chlorophenol substituted in positions 2,4,6.
