Polychlorinated biphenyls, hexachlorobenzene and pentachlorobenzene are listed in the Stockholm Convention Annex C as unintentional Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs). They can be unintentionally formed and released during various industrial and daily life processes. Since China is a party to the Stockholm Convention, China is required to identify and quantify the releases of them, and develop action plans to minimize or eliminate them. To this end, the first step is to overview their potential sources and activities on national level. The three chemicals have similar forming mechanism as dioxin. Therefore, thermal processes, such as waste incineration and ferrous and non-ferrous metal production are with high potential of emission. Organochlorine industry is another important source, and some even have the highest release potential. Based on the overview, the national release inventories of the three unintentional POPs of China will be developed in the near future.
