About this document

Science of The Total Environment: Tyler Malkoske, Yulin Tang, Wenying Xu, Shuili Yu, Hongtao Wang by lorena is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document reviews the environmental distribution, fate, and control of the brominated flame retardant tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA), finding that its main emission sources are manufacturing facilities, e-waste recycling sites, and wastewater treatment plants. After release into the environment, TBBPA can undergo processes like adsorption, photolysis, and biodegradation. Stronger enforcement of regulations and improved treatment of e-waste and wastewater could help reduce TBBPA levels in the environment.
