The study found that emissions of particulate matter (PM<sub>10<\/sub>) from MWIs are low and make only a small contribution to ambient background levels. The report is available at the following link:<\/p><p><a href=\"http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/acs.est.6b06478\" target=\"_blank\">http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/acs.est.6b06478<\/a><\/p><p>No evidence was found of a link between exposure to PM<sub>10<\/sub>, which includes PM<sub>2.5<\/sub>, PM<sub>1<\/sub> and PM<sub>0.1<\/sub> emitted from MWIs and infant mortality, or the other birth outcomes investigated. Further information is available at the following link:<\/p><p><a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envint.2018.10.060\" target=\"_blank\">https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envint.2018.10.060<\/a><\/p><p>The latest paper found no increased risk of congenital anomalies from exposure to PM<sub>10<\/sub> emissions, however living closer to the incinerators was associated with a very small increase in risk of some birth defects. As acknowledged by the authors, this finding may be because the study could not fully adjust for factors such as other sources of pollution around MWIs or deprivation.

PHE will review its advice in light of new substantial research on the health effects of incinerators published in peer reviewed journals.
