Environmental monitoring is crucial to preserve our environment for the well-being of our current and future generations. This includes the analysis of samples like water and soil for contaminants to assess their quality and direct remedial actions. Monitoring industrial sites for harmful emissions to the atmosphere, surrounding soil, and wastewater is as important as drinking water and domestic wastewater analysis as part of environmental protection.

A wide range of analytical parameters are regulated by authorities like the US EPA, and therefore commonly analyzed. These parameters include toxic metals like Lead, Cadmium, or Mercury, but also sum parameters like Total Organic Carbon (TOC) and organic halides (AOX/TOX). Anions like nitrate or phosphate primarily play a role in drinking and wastewater analysis.

A comprehensive portfolio of analytical technologies for these different parameters will be discussed with regard to challenges and their solutions in routine environmental analysis, and application examples will be presented to highlight advantages in sample throughput, detection sensitivity, and operating cost.

Access to clean drinking water is a crucial element of public health and wellbeing, and regulated in the USA by the Safe Drinking Water Act. Preventing wastewater contamination is part of environmental protection and part of the Clean Water Act. Both laws require monitoring of drinking and wastewater on a regular basis. Total Organic Carbon and Total Organic Halides are two important water quality parameters regulated by the EPA.

The webcast will demonstrate and compare different techniques for the analysis of Total Organic Carbon (TOC) and Organic Halides (AOX/TOX) in different types of water. Various instrumental solutions, optimized for different usage scenarios, will be presented to provide current and future analysts with the knowledge required to make informed purchasing decisions, and use their instruments efficiently to provide a high quality of analysis results.

Creating Value Downstream

From waste to value, modern analytical technologies for precise characterization of waste create value from recycling and protect the environment when disposing of waste.

https://www.spectroscopyonline.com/spec_w/waste

Due to the steady rise in global population, the amount of waste produced worldwide is also increasing. In 2016, more than 2 billion tons of waste were produced worldwide. The forecast expects around 2.5 billion tons of waste to be produced in 2030. In addition to waste prevention, the topics of waste recycling and disposal are currently of high relevance. In order to recycle or properly dispose of it, analyzing waste is crucial. The analysis of these samples naturally presents numerous challenges; a variety of techniques can be used to measure trace and minor elements in waste. Depending on the number of elements that need to be determined, the required detection limits, and the number of samples that need to be run, the most suitable business requirement technique can be chosen. In this webinar, analytical techniques and their performance will be discussed using practical examples from various types of waste.
