Solutions for Environmental Analysis

Introduction

A clean environment is the basis for any life on earth. Whether water, soil or air – keeping the environment clean for the protection of all creatures is, and should be, the primary responsibility of any society. With the continued policy to contribute to society through science and technology, Shimadzu has been specializing in the development of instruments for environmental analysis for decades to help scientists detect and identify trace-level pollutants. These include chromatography (GC, LC, SFC), mass spectrometry (GC-MS, LC-MS, MALDI), sum parameter (TOC), and spectroscopy (UV-Vis, FTIR, AAS, ICP-OES). These high-quality analytical products underline Shimadzu’s brand statement of ‘Excellence of Science’. To aid your environmental analysis, we have compiled a vast number of solution-oriented application notes and information brochures into this notebook. The contents are arranged by analytical targets and techniques to provide an indication of where environmental analytical challenges occur and how to solve them to increase efficiency, productivity and accuracy. In addition, information on various environmental regulations and guidelines, such as the Japan’s water quality standards and the widely-adopted US EPA methods and standards, are referenced in the application notes to assist in your analysis for environmental monitoring and regulatory compliance.
