| Resumen |
The most toxic combustion products generated from polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) involved in electrical transformer fires are polychlorinated dibenzofuran (PCDF) and polychlorinated dibenzodioxin (PCDD) isomers. Clean-up procedures based on experience, obtained from two such fires which occurred in the USA are discussed in the light of the carcinogenic potential of some of these compounds. |
