A paper (1) published today on the health costs associated with exposure to chemical substances in the everyday environment should provoke a major rethink on priority setting in environmental policy, including a more important focus on prevention strategies, according to the Health and Environment Alliance (HEAL). The study suggests that preventable environmental chemical exposures contribute to health costs that may exceed 10% of global gross domestic product (GDP). (1) The calculation combined and extended...
LAR`s online analyzer ToxAlarm is a measuring system for the determination of toxicity in drinking and surface water. The analyzer contains a highly sensitive bacteria culture in a fermenter, which constantly and independently produces biomass. Since every water sample is tested with a small and fresh amount of bacteria, the risk of the entire bacteria culture within the analyzer being contaminated is avoided. Unlike alternative toxicity tests, purchasing or time consuming breeding of test organisms is not...
The toximeter NitriTox of LAR Process Analysers AG is a continuous operating analyzer for the determination of nitrification toxicity. Especially in water treatment, toxic substances can harm the waste water treatment plant`s biomass in a negative way and in worst case lead to a entire plant shutdown. Therefore, the monitoring of toxicity is of special importance.
The toximeter monitors the oxygen consumption of the bacteria used by means of a nitrification respiration inhibition test and thus, determines the...
Toxicity is the most common disturbance to biological treatment processes – especially for nitrification. The continuous toxicity monitoring proactively protects the waste water treatment plant and hence, secures to keep the plant running.
LAR`s online toxicity analyzer NitriTox continuously monitors the plants` influent for toxic pollutants. This toxicity test contains highly sensitive nitrifiers, which constantly and independently produces biomass. This means that the risk of the test organisms within...
