Testing for different categories of compounds in wastewater—such as readily biodegradable, slowly biodegradable, recalcitrant, and toxic compounds is crucial for several reasons related to environmental protection, wastewater treatment efficiency, and public health. Knowing the composition of your wastewater is key to selecting the most effective treatment program for your facility. At EBS, our lab is equipped to test for the presence and concentrations of many of these compounds, which are well-known to wreak havoc on the efficiency of biological treatment processes.
Following this analysis, EBS can provide further treatability testing to help you and your team develop the most effective action plan!
