Eighty-four PCB congeners in transformer oil produced in China were analyzed by gas chromatography mass spectrum (GC-MS) and the international toxicity equivalents (TEQ) indioxin-like PCBs found in Chinese transformer oil were also estimated. The major CB homologue in the total PCBs was Cl3-CB (63%) followed by Cl4-CB and Cl2-CB, accounted for 24% and 9% of ΣPCB, respectively. Low chlorinated biphenyls were the major components of the PCBs in transformer oil produced in China. PCBs in Chinese transformer oil contained 42.9% chlorine, similar to the Aroclor 1242 (contains 40%~42% chlorine). The concentrations of the 6 dioxin-like PCBs found in Chinese transformer oil were low, accounted for 1.6% of ΣPCB. The TEQ of the 6 dioxin-like PCBs was approximately 5.53 μg/mL which was 15% of those found in Aroclor 1242. Among the 6 dioxin-like PCBs, CB-77 had the highest TEQ value, which was 72% of total TEQ, and followed by CB-105 (15%) and the most toxic congener CB-126 (8%).
