AB  - In this study leachate and sediment samples were collected from six municipal 
      solid waste landfill sites across Gauteng Province in South Africa to determine 
      the levels of 2-ethylhexyl 2,3,4,5 tetrabromobenzoate (EH-TBB), 
      1,2-bis(2,4,6-tribromophenoxy) ethane (BTBPE), decabromodiphenyl ethane (DBDPE), 
      bis(2-ethylhexyl)-3,4,5,6-tetrabromo-phthalate (BEH-TEBP) and 
      hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD). Soxhlet as well as liquid-liquid extraction were 
      employed for sediment and leachates respectively followed by GC-EIMS analysis. 
      Concentrations of novel brominated flame retardants (NBFRs) ranged from below 
      detection (<dl)-310ngg(-1) and <dl-142pgL(-1) for sediment and leachate samples 
      while percentage proportions of detected NBFRs and HBCD analytes in leachate 
      samples was observed to be approximately 64%, 22%, 9% and 5% for TBB,  summation operatorHBCD, 
      BTBPE and TBPH respectively. Frequency of detection was lower in sediment 
      (<20-50%) compared to leachate (75-100%) samples. Decabromodiphenyl ethane levels 
      in sediment and leachate samples were found below the limit of quantitation. A 
      positive correlation with NBFRs was, however, observed with some water quality 
      parameters except for sulphate.
