This paper reviews the risk potential of pulp mill pollutants to humans, risk abatement strategies adopted by the pulp and paper industry, and their socio-enviro-economic implications.The deleterious impact of dioxin-exposure on experimental animals is well documented worldwide. Though their impact on humans is yet to be assessed, it is part of today's conventional widsom that the reduction and possible elimination of the major sources of dioxin would be, pragmatically and economically, more environmentally acceptable. Key words: Dioxin, furan, PCDDs, PCDFs, bleaching, paper and pulp, oxygen, bleach, BOD, COD, wood.
