To assess the pollution levels, characteristics, and the pollution sources and occupational inhalation exposure of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans(PCDD/Fs)in the workshops,ambient air samples in different types of incinerators of two municipal solid waste incinerators(MSWI) were collected and analyzed. The results showed that ① The I-TEQ concentration ranged from 0.034-2.

Spatial and seasonal distributions, the correlation between PCDD/F concentrations and various kinds of meteorological factors were studied with emphasis, as well as the trajectory of air mass simulated by hybrid single-particle lagrangian integrated trajectory (HYSPLIT) model of the U. S.

The results showed that the average concentration (I-TEQ) of PCDD/Fs in the exhaust gas was 184 ng x m(-3), which seriously exceeds the emission standard (0.5 ng x m(-3)).
