Brominated Flame Retardants in the UK Environment

R.J. Law and C.R. Allchin

This paper summarises available data for the brominated flame retardant compounds the polybrominated biphenyls and diphenyl ethers in the UK environment prior to 2001. Polybrominated biphenyls were either undetectable or (for BB209) found occasionally at low concentrations. High concentrations of brominated diphenyl ethers were found in some samples, particularly in the Rivers Skerne and Tees in NE England.
