Air emission factors of hexachlorobenzene (HCB) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were analyzed and the total emissions of HCB and PCBs were estimated in Japan ompared with other documented values. The emission factors of sintering furnaces in the iron and steel industry are comparable to other reported values. We have identified cement kilns and the secondary metals production as emission sources with relatively large emission factors. The emission of HCB and PCBs in Japan in 2006 is estimated to be 179 and 654 kg, respectively.
