Stack Emissions Analysis
Environmental concerns are at an all-time high across the world. RPS has decades of demonstrable experience and knowledge in delivering stack emissions analysis, performed to a UKAS and MCERTs accredited standard.
The Environment Agency has emphasised the need for the highest quality Stack Emissions analysis of compounds emitted from industrial and power generation facilities. This would ensure that all potential hazards to the environment would be considered.
We understand the challenges our clients face and can respond quickly with cost effective and tailored solutions specific to their individual requirements. This includes faster analytical turnaround times as well as on-hand advice for the appropriate sample media clients require, all of which we can provide in line with our scope of analysis. We also constantly review the most up-to-date methods and expand our scope where necessary.
Our team of highly qualified analytical and technical staff provide support and guidance to every market-leading stack emission test house, process operators and consultants to ensure their sampling complies with the legislation for emissions to atmosphere. This includes the Environmental Permitting Regulations (2010) and the Industrial Emissions Directive (2010).
Our stack emission standards and credentials
We are members of the Source Testing Association (STA), and our state-of-the-art laboratories perform consistently to a high level in the AIR PT Scheme. This is key to maintaining our high standards and can assure our clients that our analytical standards never falter.
An example of our ability to provide an ideal solution for a market leading Stack Testing House can be found below for reference. This further demonstrates RPS’ capability and determination to support our clients to the fullest extent.
We can provide catered solutions to our clients within the Stack market, and we have a readily available team of experts, to provide them with niche and specific solutions even during peak periods. We know that the fourth quarter of a year is when requirements for Stack testing are more frequent and our clients require media to be provided and analysis to be performed, within tight timeframes. We can help facilitate this.
