We conduct waste testing both for the possibility of storage in landfills and for their use as alternative fuels or in other waste recovery processes outside installations and devices, taking into account the recovery conditions described in applicable legal acts.
We perform tests for all types of waste (inert, hazardous and non-hazardous).
Based on our analyses, we prepare ecological assessments of waste properties, their environmental impact, and disposal methods. We conduct compliance tests for waste, including preparing a data sheet – a basic description of waste intended for landfill.
In the field of waste analysis, we carry out tests related to the classification of mining waste as neutral waste, along with the interpretation of the results and preparation of an assessment in the form of documentation regarding compliance with legal requirements in this area.
We carry out specialized tests on waste classification to determine the waste code and source.
We provide professional waste sampling, ensuring its representativeness, as well as a complete set of tests adapted to the intended use of the waste.
We carry out tests of slags and ashes from individual home furnaces.
As part of the inspection of home furnaces, we offer a range of activities that enable us to verify the issue of waste combustion in home heating devices through slag and ash analysis.
