biphenyls (PCBs)‚ which have been widely used as plasticizers‚ hydraulic and heat exchange fluids‚ coolants and lubricants in transformers and capacitors‚ may also be present in the e-waste stream. Due to its high capacity to store pollutants‚ soil appears to be the major sink for PCBs in various environments (Dalla Valle et al.‚ 2005). Soil samples collected from several villages in Taizhou e-waste recycling area contained high levels of PCBs (52.0 - 5789.5 μg/kg) (Tang et al.‚ 2010a). PCBs were also
