QUESTION: Do you have any data on waste incinerator pollutants? - 30 Oct 2007 England, UK

 We are being threatened with the siting of a 220,000 tonne p.a. waste disposal incinerator nearby. We are very concerned about the hazards of municipal incinerators with regard to PM2.5 emissions etc. I have read and passed to my colleagues your excellent report on wood burning stoves and PM2.5 pollution - quite alarming, actually. Do you have any data on waste incinerator pollutions please?

Regards,

Clive

ANSWER: 22 Jun 2009

Dear Clive,

You have the right to be concerned about the hazards of municipal incinerators as tons of pollutants are released into our atmosphere from incineration. Below you will find links with information regarding incinerator pollution. I hope you find them useful.

Regards, Iman Hegazi MBBS, MD. Forensic Medicine and Toxicology, Volunteer
