Certainty in water quality
Safe drinking water and a healthy living environment form the basis for the well-being of people and nature. With careful water analyses, we help you to identify and prevent potential microbiological and chemical risks in a timely manner.
Through accurate testing and thorough expertise, we support organizations in ensuring water quality and protecting the environment.
What microbiological analyses do we offer for water?
According to the Water Act, water must be tested regularly for Legionella contamination, for which we are accredited in matrix A (drinking water). However, our microbiological analysis covers much more than just Legionella. We test water for dangerous bacteria such as E. coli, Enterococci, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, as well as non-specific parameters such as total plate count. These accredited analyses help you identify and manage risks in a timely manner.
In addition, we offer supporting microbiological analyses for specific applications. ATP analysis identifies non-specific growing microorganisms, while SRB analysis detects contamination with sulfate-reducing bacteria. These bacteria can accelerate corrosion and give water an unpleasant odor and taste. TRB analysis is essential when thiosulfate is present, as this group of bacteria can cause corrosion through the reduction of thiosulfate. With this comprehensive microbiological analysis, we guarantee water quality at all levels.
What chemical and ion analyses do we perform?
Chemical water quality is just as important as microbiological safety and requires regular monitoring. Our chemical analysis focuses specifically on the analysis of ions that are crucial to water quality. We accurately determine the concentrations of silver (Ag), copper (Cu), calcium (Ca), carbonate (CO₃²⁻), chloride (Cl⁻), iron (Fe), and hardness. These parameters provide insight into the composition and suitability of water for various applications.
In addition to our standard package, we can analyze other ions on request, allowing us to respond flexibly to your specific needs. Our accredited laboratory methods guarantee reliable results for every ion analysis. We offer customized chemical analysis and support organizations in ensuring optimal water quality.
How do we analyze oil in water according to international standards?
For industrial applications, we analyze water in oil (oil in water) according to the international OSPAR 2005-15 method using GC-FID technology. This accredited analysis is essential for companies that comply with strict environmental standards and need to accurately determine the concentration of oil in water. Our accreditation for this specific oil in water analysis proves our expertise and reliability in this field.
The determination of oil in water is crucial for environmental monitoring and compliance with legislation, particularly in the maritime and offshore sectors. By using our accredited laboratory services for oil in water analysis, you obtain accurate and legally recognized results. We combine advanced analysis techniques with years of experience to provide you with optimal support in water quality management and environmental protection.
