Comprehensive Water, Environmental, and Material Testing
Bokamoso Scientific provides detailed analysis for water quality monitoring, routinely covering a broad spectrum of parameters, including contaminant analysis necessary to ensure water safety and regulatory compliance.
Water and Wastewater Analyses
Physical and Chemical Parameters:
- pH, turbidity, alkalinity, conductivity, total dissolved solids (TDS), and hardness
- Inorganic constituents: Anions, cations, trace/heavy metals, cyanide species, and nutrients
Organic Chemical Analyses:
- Targeted pollutants: Pesticides, industrial solvents, pharmaceuticals, and disinfection byproducts
- Bulk parameters: Total organic carbon (TOC), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD)
Microbiological Analyses:
Our testing confirms safety and compliance by identifying and quantifying microbial presence:
- Indicator Organisms: Total coliforms, E. coli, and Heterotrophic Plate Counts (HPC).
- Pathogen Detection: Specific analysis for pathogens such as Legionella, Salmonella, and Enterococci.
Specialised Analytical Testing
We handle complex matrices and specialised industry needs, including:
- Environmental Impact: Analysis of mine impacted water (MIW).
- Emerging Pollutants: Detection and quantification of trace contaminants like pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs).
- Industrial Materials: Comprehensive coal and mineral ore analyses
We are currently working towards SANAS accreditation and follow ISO 17025 testing protocols to ensure reliable and accurate results.
These assessments support environmental protection, regulatory compliance, and optimised treatment processes, ultimately enhancing overall operational efficiency and effectiveness.
