Element offers a complete range of stack emissions testing, environmental inspection, and consultancy services to help organizations achieve regulatory compliance for their industrial installations.
Operators producingemissions to airfrom stacks and other source releases are required to comply with Emissions Limit Values (ELVs) and Quality Assurance of CEMS as specified in their regulatory monitoring requirements, such as EU Industrial Emissions (IED) & Medium Combustion Plant (MCP) Directives, US Clean Air Act, Permit & License monitoring requirements. We provide independent, accredited stack emissions testing, which is essential for all organizations that wish to meet their regulatory compliance responsibilities.
All Elements stack emissions testing services are provided in line with national legislation, and our testing and inspection services are delivered in accordance with the international standards ISO/IEC17025 and MCERTS in the UK & Ireland.
Maritime Emissions Monitoring
International Maritime Organization (IMO) regulations have been tightened in recent years to limit air emissions from ships and other maritime vessels. Maritime air pollution control is now much more closely aligned with shore-based power plants and industrial sites.
Our ISO 17025 UKAS-MCERTS accredited emissions testing methods monitor maritime emissions highlighted in the MARPOL Annex VI Regulations, aimed at controlling pollutants such as NOx, SOx and CO2.
Element work in collaboration with marine fuel additive companies to provide the sector with independently verified reductions in carbon emissions and fuel consumption. We have a proven track record of successfully delivering maritime projects, and our experience of testing on ships and vessels allows us to provide the accurate advice you need.
Odour Monitoring
作为其环境许可法规的一部分,需要许多设施根据气味管理计划(OMP)进行操作并证明合规性。其他过程可能只需要评估气味控制单元的性能或调查气味投诉。气味污染可能是复杂的,以评估和测量常常涉及几种物质,并且有多种因素在游戏中,包括浓度,强度和特定地点 /时间因素。
For Point Sources (Stacks) Odour is measured to the European Odour Standard EN 13725:2003 for which Element are UKAS Accredited. This determines the odour concentration by dynamic olfactometry, where odour is assessed from the point of view of perceptibility to human olfactory sense.
We are able to collect samples using a non-reactive material and a sampling technique which prevents potential sources of contamination. The sample is rapidly assessed by an odour panel within 30 hours of sampling. Results are then calculated in the form of European odour units, and assessment of the hedonic tone, if necessary.
Manage your testing programme online
To improveour client experienceElement has developed the newe-Mission portal, which allows you to plan and track your stack emission testing programs. Findmore information about our new online tool.
Audit training
In addition to stack emissions testing and compliance services, Element also offers audit training; e.g., Operator Monitoring Assessment (OMA) to prepare for an Environment Agency audit visit. Audit training can help ensure your audit will be carried out effectively and efficiently, resulting in an accurate representation of the standard of self-monitoring.
