As part of the sign off of an ambient air monitoring system the client wanted an independent overview of the performance of a analysis system prior to shipping and final payments to the vendor.

Ongoing Environmental Monitoring in the environs of a modern EfW facility requires the monitoring of Soil and Vegetation for Trace Metals and Micro-Pollutants such as Dioxins/Furans (PCDDs/PCDFs), PAHs, PCBs etc.

An International Waste Management company commissioned Oakwood Environmental to conduct a series of background ambient air campaigns to provide information for Environmental Impact Statements

Monitoring Report on  two Chemical Incinerators and a boiler for permitting by the Irish EPA. The project included DRE trials for indicator VOCs and monitoring using a Semi-Vost sampling methodology. 

Dioxin/Furan Monitoring and abatement Optimisation of a Chemical Incinerator

Training courses in the use of Isokinetic equipment and the subsequent deployment for Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans, to BS EN 1948, Metals to BS EN 14385, Mercury BS EN 13211 and common Source Emission Species are regularly conducted. These courses can be tailored to specific needs and include Field Training where feasible.
