Abstract
This work is based upon an analysis of current literature reports and the personal expertise of Dr. Walter M. Shaub, who has conducted extensive analyses of the physical and chemical properties and behavior of dioxins and related compounds in thermal environments. References [1,2] of this report can be used as an extensive bibliography to this field. The latter reference can be used as a sourcebook about NBS related research. fIn the section which follows this introduction, each question associated with the technical points posed by Mr. Casowitz is analyzed and answered.
