Our activity:
We conduct research in the field of environmental analytics (measurements of pollutant emissions and identification of sources of their release, soil and water quality tests, dust concentration measurements). We also modernize technologies used for:
- disposal of waste materials,
- desulfurization of industrial and energy gases,
- water and sewage treatment.
Research offer:
- research and development work in the selection of technologies and assessment of the operation of dust removal devices: fabric filters, pulsation filters, electrostatic precipitators, wet dedusting installations,
- work on water treatment methods and industrial wastewater treatment,
- work on waste management and disposal technologies,
- development of assumptions for the design of industrial and energy gas desulfurization installations, development of assumptions for the design of industrial wastewater treatment installations,
- optimization studies of refrigeration circuits,
- work on the modernization of existing dedusting installations and sewage treatment plants, development of documentation necessary to obtain an integrated permit and sector permits (emission of pollutants into the atmosphere, water and sewage management, waste management, etc.).

Laboratories
Measurement and Technology Laboratory for Gas Purification
- measurements of dust concentration and gas volume flow in technological lines, emissions of dust, gases and individual chemical elements and compounds
- determining the effectiveness of dust removal devices
- testing the physico-chemical properties of dust
- esting of the chemical composition of gases – determination of: O2, CO2, CO, NO, NOx, SO2, SO3, HCl, HF, humidity
- testing of filter fabrics and non-wovens in terms of breathability and mechanical strength
Analytical and Technological Laboratory for Water and Wastewater Treatment
The laboratory’s experience, facilities and equipment predispose it to carry out chemical analyses and solve technological problems related to water and wastewater treatment, including those characterized by high salinity and the presence of pollutants considered particularly harmful to the natural environment.
