dc.description.abstractPolychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs), collectively referred to as dioxins, are toxic compounds generated as unintentional byproducts of organic material combustion. While industrial emissions have significantly decreased since 2000, contributions from forest fires, domestic combustion, and vehicular sources remain concerning. Frequent peat fires in Southeast Asia may have leadingly contributed to the dioxins level in the environment. Peat, having high amount of organic material and possible precursor and catalysts for dioxins formation, is highly susceptible to dioxin production during combustion. This study aims to determine the physico-chemical properties, precursor compounds, catalysts, and congener profiles of dioxins of Peninsular Malaysian tropical peats at different depths and eventually determine the congener of emissions resulting from the combustion of selected peat samples.
