The release ofthe wastes containing polybrominated diphenyl ethers into the environment is a worldwide major concern, Investigation of spatial and temporal variations of polybrominated diphenyl ethers concentrations due to different factors, especially the transport of these species between air and water as well as between air and soil is the purpose of present research, A model was developed and solved using the methods of finite difference and lines. Simulations were implemented for three dimensions of width, length, and height and also time for the air compartment, whereas for the soil and water compartments, variations were considered only with respect to height and time, Transport between water and soil was disregarded for simplicity at this stage. Vancouverיs landfill was considered as a case study. Lower concentrations in air and higher concentrations in water at the interface show that these pollutants tend to diffuse from air to water, Concentrations of all four pollutants decrease ncar the interface in soil as time passes, but they are predicted to be almost constant at other levels
