Abstract

Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) are huge groups of chemicals that are associated with a variety of human health problems. They have a long residual, bioaccumulation, semi-volatile and high toxicity and they can migrate through various environmental media (air, water, soil, organisms, etc.) over long distances, which means that they have a seriously harmful effect on human's health and the environment. Learning the migration and transformation of POPs in the environment is of great importance to control POPs pollution.
