Our chemists and microbiologists have many years’ experience in the analysis of environmental water quality for different water types including, ground water, surface water, and waste waters.
Wastewater treatment is critical due to diminishing water resources, increasing disposal costs and stricter discharge regulations lowering permissible contaminant levels.
We understand the constraints of wastewater discharge and are able to analyse effluents and wastewater to comply with regulatory authorities consent to discharge, under European and UK legislation.
Using the latest instruments and technology we offer a full range of testing, including BOD, COD, Inorganic salts, Cyanide, Detergents and Organic compounds. Our capabilities also include working with clients in conjunction with the EU Landfill Directive (EEC/1999/31/EC) and the Environmental Agency Landfill Directive, providing a full analytical service, including the monitoring of leachate and landfill gas.
