New accreditation for the Technology&Environment laboratory

The Tecnologia&Ambiente laboratory has obtained Accredia accreditation for the analysis of new environmental parameters. This will enable it to offer an even wider range of high-quality analyses.

New accreditations for ducted emissions

• Carbon dioxide by UNI CEN/TS 17405:2020 method

• Carbon monoxide with method UNI EN 15058:2017

• Oxygen with method UNI EN 14789:2017

• Water vapour (humidity) with method UNI EN 14790:2017

• Velocity and Flow with method UNI EN ISO 16911-1:2013 (Annex A only)

• Dust with method UNI EN 13284-1:2017

New accreditations for the soil matrix

• High-resolution analysis of the parameter polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) with method EPA 1668C 2010

• Analysis of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) using method EPA 3545A 2007 + EPA 8270E 2018, which involves Accelerated Solvent Extraction and subsequent analysis by gas chromatography with detection by mass spectrometry

• Analysis of Hexavalent Chromium with method UNI EN ISO 15192:2021 + UNI EN ISO 17294 -2:2023, based on the extraction of the analyte by alkaline digestion and subsequent reading in IC/ICP-MS (ion chromatography interfaced with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry)

• Analysis of Total Organic Carbon (TOC) by UNI EN 13137:2002 method, accredited for all solid matrices (sludge, waste, sediment, soil)

New accreditations for aqueous matrices

• Analysis of the parameter COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand) with method ISO 15705:2002.
