Dioxins- and trace-element analyse

One Level back

Problems of extremely toxic substances remain in focus of public interest.

Does your company complies with the stricter requirements of the new standards?

The revision of the European standard EN 1948 led to the introduction of stricter regulations for dioxins and laid down criteria governing dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) for the first time. The CEN/TS 1948-4 standard extended the requirements governing determination of mass concentrations of dioxins in emissions from industrial production processes by adding dioxin-like PCBs. Regarding dioxin analysis in food and feed, the EU has already defined tolerable limit values in recent years, including those for dioxin-like PCBs. Toxicological evaluation is effected in line with the WHO’s TE model.

As TÜV SÜD’s environmental engineering experts, we determine mass concentration of dioxin in almost all types of samples from the environment. We analyse air, exhaust emissions, ashes, water, sewage, soil, plants, blood, fatty tissue, food and feed, textiles and many other substances.
