Dioxin risk assessment

Dioxin risk assessment is a scientific evaluation of the potential health effects caused by exposure to dioxins, toxic chemical compounds that can result from industrial processes and burning waste. The assessment involves determining how much dioxin people might be exposed to, how it affects health, and identifying vulnerable groups, such as children or those with existing health issues. Regulatory agencies use this information to set safety guidelines and limit dioxin exposure in the environment, ensuring public health protection while allowing for informed decision-making regarding industrial activities and waste management.
