Abstract

In order to estimate the relative contributions of PCBs produced by volatilization and incinerator emissions to atmospheric PCBs, we analyzed the relationships among variations in atmospheric concentrations of congeners, factors affecting atmospheric concentrations, and temperature dependence of atmospheric concentrations.
