THE LEADING LABORATORY NETWORK FOR INDUSTRIAL FACILITY ANALYSIS
We meet the analytical needs of the sector
At the Eurofins Environment Testing Spain laboratory network, we understand the importance of thorough and accurate analysis in industrial facilities to ensure operational efficiency, sustainability, and environmental protection. Our commitment is to deliver reliable and fast testing services that provide critical insights into the condition of industrial facilities.
Our laboratories, accredited according to the UNE-EN ISO/IEC 17025 standard, are equipped with advanced technology to carry out a wide range of analytical controls across various industrial parameters. We offer real-time results, available 24/7, accessible whenever you need them. In addition, our database is directly integrated with your management systems, making it easier to interpret data and make informed decisions.
Types of analysis in industrial facilities
Our laboratories carry out the following types of analysis in industrial facilities:
What do we analyze in an industrial facility?
These are the types of analyses we perform in industrial facilities:
Analysis of process water and sludge
Evaluation of the quality and composition of water and sludge generated during industrial processes. This includes the identification of pollutants, assessment of the efficiency of applied treatments, and determination of the physicochemical and biological characteristics of the sludge.
Environmental controls according to Integrated Environmental Authorizations
Discharge controls according to Discharge Authorizations
- Flow rate measurements.
- Analysis of discharge composition.
- Monitoring of pipelines and drainage systems
Drinking water controls (well, reservoir, network, tap, etc.)
Water analysis from wells, reservoirs, distribution networks, and taps.
Legionellosis control (cooling towers, showers, etc.)
- Implementation of prevention and control plans
- Periodic sampling and analysis
Environmental assessment studies for projects, expansions, etc.
Specialized services in conducting environmental assessment studies for new projects, expansions of industrial facilities, and other related interventions.
Studies for indoor air quality assessment and industrial hygiene.
Comprehensive assessments of indoor air quality to identify potential pollutants such as particulates, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), or microbiological agents.
Other specific sampling, laboratory analysis, and desk-based work:
A wide range of services: from material characterization and emissions monitoring to specialized studies on specific pollutants or technical parameters.
Our analysis methods:
The laboratories of Eurofins Environment Testing Spain are equipped with the most advanced, precise, and sensitive facilities, instruments, and analytical techniques for conducting analyses in industrial facilities. Among the techniques used are the following:
Spectroscopy:
- Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-OES): used for the detection and quantification of multiple elements in process water and sludge.
- Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS): used in the analysis of atmospheric emissions.
Chromatography:
- High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC): used for the separation and analysis of organic compounds in process water and sludge.
- Gas Chromatography (GC): used in the analysis of pollutants in wastewater and in the assessment of indoor air quality.
Microbiological analysis:
- Selective medium culture: for the detection and quantification of Legionella in cooling towers and showers.
- Microbiological control: to detect pathogens in drinking water.
Molecular techniques:
- PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction): for the specific and sensitive detection of Legionella.
Measurement of physicochemical parameters:
- pH, conductivity, and turbidity: Used in discharge control according to discharge authorizations.
Environmental impact matrices:
- Leopold matrix and Batelle-Columbus matrix: used in environmental assessment studies for projects and expansions.
Life Cycle Analysis (LCA):
- Ecological footprint assessment: for projects and expansions.
Sampling:
- Active and passive sampling: for air quality monitoring and indoor air quality assessment.
Why choose us?
On-site sampling and analysis
We carry out water sampling (grab and composite), sludge, atmospheric, and biogas sampling.
We perform on-site measurements that include the determination of parameters which, due to their characteristics or instability, must be measured immediately or are best measured directly at your facility: pH, conductivity, turbidity, flow rate, etc.
