Examination of water and wastewater samples

In the field of water analysis, we use accredited test methods to examine samples for their contamination with anions and their pollution with heavy metals or organic residues. Furthermore, important quality figures can be determined. The tests focus on samples of

  • Deionized and ultrapure water 
  • Drinking water
  • Ground and surface water
  • Waste water
  • Process water
  • Cooling water
  • Leachate

A variety of measuring methods and analytical instruments are used here, such as ICP/MS and ICP/OES for heavy metal determination, ion chromatography for the determination of inorganic anions, and GC/FID, GC/MS and GC-MS/MS for the analysis of organic contaminants.

Profile

Typical fields of application:

Wastewater treatment plants, construction sites in building and construction industry, industrial plants, clinics, medical device manufacturers

Type of contamination / Objective of the analysis:

Physico-chemical water characteristics, inorganic anions, heavy metals

Analyzable parameters:

Anions (chloride, fluoride, cyanide, nitrate, nitrite, phosphate and sulfate), heavy metals, PAHs, PCBs, BTEX, LHKWs, MKWs, pesticides, pH, conductivity, water hardness, COD, TC, TIC, TOC, AOX

Sample:

Ultrapure water, deionized water, process wastewater, construction site water, aqueous eluates
in sample bottles, quantity approx. 1,000 ml
