Although there are no scientifically proven minimum safe limits for concentrations of certain toxic and carcinogenic chemicals in food, air and water, such "safe limits" in fact have been set by the appropriate food and drug administrations or their equivalents. The implication is that a dose of low-level radiation with no acceptable safe level is more health-threatening than a low-level dose of, for example, dioxin. In fact, the Task Force finds it is more reasonable to accept a maximum permissible level for ionizing radiation because background radiation is a ubiquitous, naturally occurring phenomenon, whereas there is no naturally occurring level of polychlorinated biphenyls. 3, record 3, English, - safe%20limit

Les étangs de goudron (soit l'étang de goudron du Nord et l'étang de goudron du Sud) sont le nom courant du ruisseau Muggah, un estuaire qui a reçu des évacuations industrielles des activités industrielles en amont, y compris les fours à coke. Les étangs de goudron couvrent une superficie de 31 hectares et contiennent plus de 700 000 tonnes (550 000 m³) de sédiments contaminés aux hydrocarbures aromatiques polycycliques et aux métaux. 2, record 12, French, - %C3%A9tangs%20de%20goudron%20de%20Sydney

Le goudron est un dérivé houillé de couleur noire. Sous-produit de la distillation de la houille lors de la fabrication du coke, il est très visqueux, voire solide (brai de goudron). Dans le langage courant, on le confond souvent avec le bitume d'origine pétrolière. Cette confusion est due à l'invention du tarmacadam, ancêtre des revêtements routiers qui était fabriqué à l'origine avec du goudron (tar en anglais). 6, record 12, French, - %C3%A9tangs%20de%20goudron%20de%20Sydney

BCD is initiated in a medium temperature thermal desorber(MTTD), at temperatures ranging from 600 to 950 degrees Fahrenheit. Chemicals are added to contaminated soils, sediments, or sludge matrices containing hazardous chlorinated organics including polychlorinated biphenyls(PCB) and polychlorinated dioxins and furans. BCD then chemically detoxifies the condensed organic contaminants by removing chlorine from the contaminant and replacing it with hydrogen. 1, record 20, English, - base%2Dcatalyzed%20decomposition

Although there are no scientifically proven minimum safe limits for concentrations of certain toxic and carcinogenic chemicals in food, air and water, such "safe limits" in fact have been set by the appropriate food and drug administrations or their equivalents. The implication is that a dose of low-level radiation with no acceptable safe level is more health-threatening than a low-level dose of, for example, dioxin. In fact, the Task Force finds it is more reasonable to accept a maximum permissible level for ionizing radiation because background radiation is a ubiquitous, naturally occurring phenomenon, whereas there is no naturally occurring level of polychlorinated biphenyls. 1, record 25, English, - maximum%20permissible%20level
