Persistent organic pollutants are highly toxic, stay in the environment for a long time, accumulate in the body according to the food chain, and cause damage not only to the area where they occur but also to other areas beyond the border. Parties to the Convention, as well as Korea, are obliged to carry out various efforts to control, reduce or eliminate sources of POPs in accordance with the national implementation plan. In addition, national efforts to limit the production, distribution and use of persistent organic pollutants and the current state of domestic pollution and emissions should be submitted every five years. A flame retardant is a polymeric material with a property that is easy to burn, and it lowers the ignition point by adding a compound having a large flame retarding effect such as halogen, phosphorus, and a nitrogen metal compound. Among them, chlorine-based flame retardants classified as halogen-based are used for suppressing ignition of combustible organic materials including plastics, furniture, textiles, clothing, and electronic products. It is also used as an alternative to brominated flame retardants, causing mutations in carcinogenic substances, hormone destruction, and nervous system damage. In the case of waste containing chlorine-based flame retardants in Korea, the methods and standards for disposal of waste are not specified. The highest SCCP values were 4,253.09 mg/kg for polyurethane foam, 628.29 mg/kg for mobile phone case and 341.91 mg/kg for flame retardant rubber sheet. In the case of car seats no SCCPs were detected, and TCEP was detected at 512. 66 mg/kg, exceeding the EU limit of 5 mg/kg. However, other chlorinated flame retardants TDCP and TDCPP were not detected in all samples.
