Analysis: Organic elements
A complete laboratory, state of the art equipment, an efficient and competent team to perform all your analyses
-
The laboratory adapts to customer needs to be able to receive and analyze different types of samples on liquid or solid matrices, including those marked radiologically. This implies setting up methodologies for the preparation and processing of particular samples, thus making it possible to respond to each request.
Achieving the quantification limits requested by customers in loaded or radioactive matrices are difficulties that the laboratory must be able to meet.
With 40 years of experience in analytical development for internal and external needs, the laboratory is able to adapt to meet a specific customer need.
Thanks to its diversified equipment, the laboratory carries out analyses of organic parameters. For this purpose, it has the following means at its disposal: chromatography, GC-MS, UV-visible spectrometry, infrared spectrometry, TOC-meter, potentiometry, discrete analysers, continuous flow analysers, specific analysers, etc.
Most of the equipment is equipped with sample changers for semi-automatic analysis of large quantities of samples.
The laboratory is able to carry out standardised leaching tests and all the analyses required by the authorities for the determination of both physico-chemical and radioactive elements.
- Analysis of liquid or solid matrices
