8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin or TCDD. The toxicity of other dioxins and chemicals like PCBs that act like dioxin are measured in relation to TCDD. Dioxin is formed as an unintentional by-product of many industrial processes involving chlorine such as waste incineration‚ chemical and pesticide manufacturing and pulp and paper bleaching. Dioxin was the primary toxic component of Agent Orange‚ was found at Love Canal in Niagara Falls‚ NY. (http://www.enviroweb.org/issues/dioxin/index.html) The major sources

Their existence is very important because they can provide more economic opportunities for people who move in.
