A river sediment containing dioxins and furans was
collected from site X, analyzed and found to contain a
limited number of congeners. Three potential sources
upstream all claim not to be responsible for the
contamination. The businesses include a pesticide
manufacturer, an electric company that uses a mixture of
PCBs and an incinerator that burns a lot of treated wood.
At site X you are given a sketch of the 2 chemicals
detected and the businesses show which chemicals are
present that may or may not serve as precursors.
1) Based on the chemicals present at each business, draw
the different dioxin and/or furan congeners that can be
formed at each company.
2) Based on what they can or can not make, which
business (if any) can claim innocence?
