Abstract:
:Identification of pollution sources and estimation of their contribution to dioxin pollution are important for taking better countermeasures against such sources. The information based on seventeen 2,3,7,8-chlorine-substituted congeners and 10 homologues is usually not sufficient for source identification. The usefulness of detailed congener-specific information of tetra- to octachlorinated polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and polychlorinated dibenzofurans was examined by principal component analysis and compared with conventional dioxin information. It was revealed that congener-specific information was far more effective for source identification than conventional information. For source apportioning, it was shown that multiple regression analysis with detailed source congener profiles could be carried out successfully when calculations were performed for individual homologues. This was because of the large variation in homologue composition in source dioxin profiles in addition to the difference in environmental behavior among the homologues. The newly proposed methods for statistical analysis were applied to the estimation of dioxin mass balance in Tokyo Bay basin. It was found that Tokyo Bay sediment core contained dioxins from three major sources: combustion, pentachlorophenol (PCP), and chloronitrophen (CNP). PCP and CNP contained large amounts of dioxin as impurity and were used extensively as paddy field herbicides in Japan in the past. The total dioxin load from the two herbicides to the basin during the past 45 years (1951-1995) was estimated to be five times larger than that from combustion source in terms of toxic equivalents (WHO-TEQ). However, in the surface sediment of the bay, the contribution from the herbicides was nearly equal to that from combustion. The herbicide contribution peaked during the 1960s and 1970s and gradually decreased thereafter.
