BENEFITS
• EnviroServ’s Meadowdale laboratory is accredited according to the ISO/IEC 17025 standard for waste analyses.
• The laboratory is able to assess your waste streams to:
- Explore alternatives to landfill
- Investigate options to beneficiate your waste
- Assess options for redu
ce, re-use, recycle (energy recovery), treatment or disposal.
• Classification of waste according to its properties (physical, health and environmental risks) in order to determine
its hazardous nature is a legal requirement.
• Leach tests and risk profiling to determine suitable end destination of waste if landfill disposal is the chosen op-
tion.
• Due to its accreditation, this laboratory can provide a full range of environmental analytical testing services, spe-
cialising in the analysis of solid, liquid and sludge waste matrices. Analytical laboratory testing services for these
matrices includes routine, trace and ultra-trace level analysis for organics (volatile and semi volatile, herbicides,
pesticides and PCBs), metals and nutrients, inorganic non-metallics, toxicological parameters, as well as a range
of physical parameters (flashpoint, flammability, moisture, and pH).
• In addition to the routine services, EnviroServ has expertise in many speciality testing areas. With its ground-
breaking features and expanded capabilities, the EnviroServ laboratory has the latest available analytical equip-
ment and is equipped with the following analytical instrumentation: ICP-OES, GC/MS, Flash Point Analyser,
Moisture Analyser, Spectrometer, Balances, pH meters and a Purge and Trap System for organic compounds.
• The Waste Regulations guarantee that waste is adequately classified and categorised, and the associated risks
of the waste are assessed for the safe transportation, handling, storage and disposal of the waste. Detailed
information on a customer’s waste streams is essential for adequate prioritisation and management of waste.
