The concentrations, profiles, and spatial distributions of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) in soil and sediment samples from several typical plastic solid waste (PSW) recovery sites (particularly from areas in which PSW is burned openly) in China were investigated. The results showed that burning PSW directly influenced PCDD/F concentrations immediately around the burning area. All of the samples in which soil contained black burning residue, collected from immediately around burning areas, had PCDD/F concentrations (mean 21708 ng kg⁻¹) and toxic equivalent (TEQ) concentrations (mean 2140 ng I-TEQ kg⁻¹ or 1877 ng WHO₂₀₀₆-TEQ kg⁻¹) more than 100 times higher than the concentrations in samples collected away from burning areas (mean 222 ng kg⁻¹, 8.75 ng I-TEQ kg⁻¹, 7.96 ng WHO₂₀₀₆-TEQ kg⁻¹). Principal component analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis indicated that the PCDD/F concentrations in seven soil samples from near PSW burning areas were influenced by PSW burning but that the PCDD/Fs in these soil samples may have had other or multiple sources. PCDD/F distributions at PSW recovery sites have been investigated in few previous studies. The results presented here indicate that appropriate measures should be taken to decrease the ecological risks posed by PSW recovery and to prevent, control, and remediate PCDD/F and other chemical contamination caused by PSW recovery.
