Toxicity & Chemical Testing
ANALYTICAL & CHEMICAL ANALYSIS
Heavy metal and ion constituent confirmation through ion chromatography.
Nutrient confirmation and balance analysis (i.e. nitrogen and phosphorus loading).
Pesticide, solvent, and surfactant analysis through gas and liquid chromatography.
Poly- and Perfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAs) analysis through liquid chromatography mass spectrometry.
Support analytical regarding solids, alkalinity and hardness, pH, chlorine and chloramines, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, oil and grease.
Microbial analysis of (i.e. E.coli, fecal coliform, Aspergillosis sp. and other bacteria of concern).
CHEMICAL PRODUCT TOXICITY STUDIES
We can provide aquatic toxicity testing on chemical products. Such information may be required for agency approval for usage at your facility or to determine appropriate usage rates to comply with WET requirements.
LC50, IC25, and NOEC Determinations
CONSULTING ON TOXICITY ISSUES
With our diverse wastewater consulting team’s 30+ years’ experience, we can provide expert support for your toughest aquatic toxicity challenges.
SITE-SPECIFIC WATER QUALITY STUDIES
We have experience characterizing water conditions and can simulate these in-house to provide insight into possible wastewater toxicants.
Biological Assessments of Streams and Rivers
We can evaluate an ecosystem using integrated assessments of habitat and biological communities, in comparison to empirically defined reference conditions.
Building on the Clean Water Act, 316 (b) aims to reduce impingement and entrainment occurrences of native wildlife populations due to anthropogenic activities.
