Abstract
This study wished to analyze contamination level of PCDD/Fs in the ambient air and presume main source of U-POPs pollution through comparison with homogeneous of surrounding U-POPs pollution sources in Seoul and Sihwa, Ulsan, Gumi, Pohang industrial complexes in Korea. Sampling were done during 2008~2009. Annual average concentrations of PCDD/Fs in sampling sites were 0.009~0.205 pg I-TEQ/ß©. Concentration of PCDD/Fs of the ambient air in industrial complex appeared higher than Seoul area. But it was not level worth worrying comparison with overseas study finding. Congener patterns of PCDD/Fs in the ambient air were similar with congener pattern of main pollution source of U-POPs in each region. Seoul was similar with congener pattern of municipal solid waste incineration and Sihwa industrial complex was similar with copper and aluminum production by rolling and pressing. Also Ulsan and Gumi industrial complex were similar with industrial waste incineration, Pohang was similar with congener pattern of iron ore sintering. So it is possible to presume pollution source of PCDD/Fs in the ambient air using congener pattern.
Key Words: PCDD/Fs, U-POPs, Industrial complex
