Abstract

Chlorobenzenes (CBs) are ubiquitous hydrophobic chlorinated organic compounds in the environment. These compounds are used as de-ordants, solvents and pesticides, as well as byproducts of agro- or petro-chemical related manufacturing processes, such as PCBs and pentachlorophenol, or of biodegradation of lindane (Newhook and Meek, 1994). Unlike some organochlorine (OC) compounds, including polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and various pesticides, CBs are not banned from production or use in any country. (omitted)
