4. Organic micropollutants
4.1 Origin and chemical form
Polychlorinated dibenzoparadioxins (PCDDs) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) are two series of planar molecules belonging to the group of polychlorinated aromatic hydrocarbons, known generically as dioxins. The main sources of PCDD and PCDF are chemical and thermal reactions.
These molecules are classified according to the number of chlorine atoms (prefix mono- to octo-) and the place occupied by this element in the molecule (figure...
