Abstract
In Poland, apart from numerous imported transformers and condensers containing dielectric fluids consisting of polychlorinated biphenyls, two technical PCBs mixtures were produced. From 1966 - 1970, Chlorofen was manufactured in Dabrowa Gornicza (Upper Silesia), and from 1974 - 1976 - Tarnol was manufactured in Tarnow (South - Eastern Poland). The total PCB; production was estimated at 1700 tons. The fate of byproducts of Tarnol production, 2000 tons of highly chlorinated biphenyls in mixture with substances used for purification, is not known. This article presents many previously unknown details about the two products.
