 AWN undertakes dioxin risk assessments for developments such as thermal treatment facilities using the methodology developed by the US EPA for hazardous waste facilities.

This involves carrying out soil sampling and air quality modelling to determine background PCDD (dioxin) and PCDF (furan) concentrations, development of a Conceptual Site Model and modelling of background dioxin and furan intake, modelling the impact of deposition rates from the proposed development on soil concentrations and increase in ambient air concentrations, and modelling the impact on dietary intake of dioxin and furans for the Most At Risk Individual.
