The Environment and Your Health: Dioxins

Dioxins are mainly byproducts of industrial practices. Dioxins may affect the environment and your health. Dioxins were manufactured as insulator fluids in heat-exchangers and transformers, as hydraulic fluids, and as additives to paints, oils, and caulks. They are produced through a variety of incineration processes, including improper municipal waste incineration and burning of household trash, and can be released into the air during natural processes, such as forest fires and volcanoes. These chemicals may also be released during chlorine bleaching of pulp and paper, or manufacturing or processing of certain types of chemicals, such as pesticides. Almost every living creature has been exposed to dioxins or dioxin-like compounds (DLCs).
