Abstract

The atmospheric existence forms and dry/wet depositions of PCDDs/PCDFs were investigated to obtain the parameters characterizing atmospheric behavior, which can be used for a computerized environmental model simulation, such as gas-particle partition coefficient, particle size distribution, washout ratio, and dry deposition velocity.
