    Abstract

    In order to analyze the off gases from high temperature chemical waste incineration for PCDD and PCDF a simple sampling train was constructed. The efficiency was checked in the laboratory by connecting it to an experimental set up for the generation of a dioxin loaden gas stream. The experiments demonstrate that the proposed sampling train is adequate for tetra through octachlorinated dioxins and dibenzofurans.
