Laboratory Services

Get in touch with us - we gladly advise you individually!

In our laboratories, we have specifically established a range of standard analytical methods to address both internal and external research questions in the following areas:

Hydrogen sulfide removal in aerobic processes
Qualitative and quantitative analysis of industrial and municipal wastewater
Treatment of industrial and municipal wastewater through precipitation, flocculation, and adsorption
Selection and evaluation of various adsorbents and reagents

A selection of frequently asked questions can be found here:

What dissolved substances are present in my water/sludge sample?
Which treatment methods are suitable?
What level of treatment performance can I expect?
Does the reagent used comply with applicable regulations?

We would be happy to advise you on selecting suitable analytical methods.
