The Environmental Fate of Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers in the Centre of Stockholm - Assessment Using a Multimedia Fugacity Model

A multimedia fugacity model has been developed to predict the environmental behaviour of organic compounds in the centre of Stockholm. It has been run for the PAH fluoranthene and for three congeners of polybrominated diphenyl ethers, showing reasonable agreement with observed concentrations. The model can be used for future assessments of the fate of organic chemicals in urban areas
