Incineration facilities operate in highly regulated environments where emissions monitoring and analytical data support environmental compliance, process evaluation, and operational performance. Requirements for Commercial and Industrial Solid Waste Incineration (CISWI) units, Hazardous Waste Combustors (HWC), and related combustion processes continue to drive demand for reliable measurement technologies and analytical expertise.
Ohio Lumex supports incinerator applications through analytical instrumentation, sampling systems, field services, and accredited laboratory analysis for mercury monitoring, acid gas measurements, trace metals analysis, sorbent trap programs, and process monitoring in demanding combustion environments.
Ohio Lumex provides analytical instrumentation, sorbent trap systems, field services, and laboratory analysis for incinerator emissions monitoring, hazardous air pollutant measurements, and trace-level analytical applications.
The Ohio Lumex field services team supports incineration facilities throughout North America with on-site specialty testing, emissions measurements, and analytical instrument services.
Our field services engineers provide onsite gas testing and sampling support for incineration and waste combustion applications, including challenging analytes such as mercury (Hg), hydrogen chloride (HCl), sulfur dioxide (SO₂), ammonia (NH₃), and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs). These measurements support emissions testing programs, pollution control system evaluations, and ongoing monitoring requirements.
Our team provides installation, commissioning, maintenance, and troubleshooting support for monitoring systems used in combustion and emissions applications. These services help facilities maintain reliable analytical data and long-term instrument performance in demanding operating environments.
The Ohio Lumex analytical laboratory provides trace-level analysis of samples collected from emissions testing programs and combustion process applications using validated EPA and ASTM methods. Our NELAP and A2LA accredited laboratory supports incineration facilities, industrial operations, and stack testing firms with accurate and reliable analytical data.
Ohio Lumex supports incineration and waste combustion applications through a combination of field services, accredited laboratory analysis, and specialized analytical instrumentation for trace-level emissions measurements.
Our experience includes applications related to mercury monitoring, acid gas measurements, sorbent trap programs, hazardous air pollutant (HAP) analysis, and evaluation of pollution control systems used in municipal, commercial, industrial, and hazardous waste combustion facilities.
Many testing programs rely on sorbent trap sampling methods to measure trace constituents in gas streams. A sorbent trap is a small glass tube filled with specialized sorbent material that captures specific analytes as gas passes through it. After sampling, the traps are returned to the laboratory where they are analyzed to determine the concentration of the gas of interest.
Sorbent traps are widely used for measuring mercury and other trace constituents because they provide reliable results even at very low concentrations and under challenging conditions. These methods are commonly used in process monitoring and regulatory emissions programs. They can simplify testing while maintaining high analytical accuracy, making them a practical and cost-effective option for many applications.
