  • Construction Sites

to outfit lab benches with wastewater and effluent testing necessities. 

Speed up your FTIR sample pre-concentration

“With the RE-202-BWA unit for pre-concentration of the sample, testing via FTIR method takes 15-20 minutes. That is half the time of our current method.” 

- Lead Chemist

Influent and effluent testing is an essential part of wastewater treatment, providing critical information on the efficiency and effectiveness of the treatment processes. These tests are conducted on water samples collected from both incoming wastewater (influent) and treated wastewater (effluent) from treatment plants. Do you run any of the following tests? 


Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD)

  • Measures the amount of oxygen needed by bacteria to break down organic matter in the water.

Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD)

  • Determines the quantity of oxygen required to chemically oxidize organic and inorganic compounds in water.

Total Suspended Solids (TSS)

  • Measures the suspended particles in water that contribute to turbidity and affect water clarity.

Nutrient Content Analysis

  • Tests for nutrients like nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P), which are key contributors to eutrophication in natural water bodies.

pH Level Testing

  • Checks the acidity or alkalinity of the water.

Total Dissolved Solids (TDS)

  • Measures all dissolved particles in water, which can impact water quality and suitability for various uses.

Pathogen Detection

  • Tests for harmful microorganisms to ensure the effluent does not pose a health risk, especially if it is to be reused.

Toxicity Tests

  • Assesses the potential harmful effects of effluent on aquatic life.

  • Includes acute and chronic toxicity tests using various aquatic species. 

Heavy Metals Analysis

  • Detects metals like lead, mercury, arsenic, and cadmium, which are toxic to humans and aquatic organisms.

Oil and Grease Measurements

  • Determines the concentration of oils, fats, and greases, which can cause environmental issues if not properly treated.

Emerging Contaminants

  • Monitors for pharmaceuticals, personal care products, and other non-traditional contaminants increasingly found in wastewater.
