Offer - Environmental Microbiology Department

main page


offers services in the following fields:

 

Assessment of microbiological and chemical contamination of housing facilities and cellars, including health risk assessment (e.g. facilities affected with fungi, sewage leakage and other wastes)
Assessment of microbiological and chemical contamination at work stations including health risk assessment ( e.g. in office buildings, at work stations affected with sewage leakage and other wastes )
Environmental impact assessment of municipal landfills, sewage treatment plants and other facilities emitting pathogenic microbes (germs) and other contaminants. Assessment of health risk posed by contamination of external and internal environment with wastes
Microbiological and sanitary analyses of composts, sewage sludge and sludge fertilised soil
Complex assessment of chemical and microbiological contamination and fertility degree of surface water and groundwater (eutrophication)
Microbiological corrosion analyses of emulsion paints and other materials
Analyses of soil and groundwater contamination with petroleum hydrocarbons and remediation projects (bioremediation) – environment-friendly soil remediation technologies
Use of bacterium and microscopic fungus biomass in removal of heavy metals and toxic pollutants from the environment
Determination of petroleum hydrocarbons (PAHs, carcinogenic PAHs, BTEX) in water and soil using EnSys, Ohmicron, Dtech immunological tests
Use of microorgaisms in environmental biotechnology processes – bioremediation

Our analyses are based on the latest methods for determination of microbiological and chemical contaminants in the air, water and soil. We use new microbiological indices for environmental pollution with waste germs (sewage, municipal wastes and other). The impact of wastes on environmental quality is assessed using enhanced mathematical tools (models).
