Ion chromatographs – determining primary inorganic anions (PO43–, SO42– , NO2–, NO3–, Cl–, F–) and cations ( Na+,K+,Ca2+ ,Mg2+, NH4+)
Atomic absorption spectrometer (AAS) – analyser used for qualitative and quantitative determination of elements (primarily metals) in various matrices
Mercury analyser – determining the mercury content in solid and liquid samples
ICP-OES spectrometer – inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry. The ICP technique is very sensitive (on the ppb level). At our laboratory, it is used to determine metals in samples of fertilisers, water, wastewater and ash
