Description:
Chemical reaction mechanisms by which dioxins may be formed are reviewed, particularly those likely to occur within commercially significant processes. Various routes of formation are identified in addition to the classical route of the hydrolysis of trichlorophenol. Basic organic chemicals and pesticides with a reasonable potential for dioxin byproduct contamination are surveyed as to current and past producers and production locations.
