What is Environmental monitoring?
The fundamental purpose of environmental monitoring is to regulate and minimize an organization's environmental effect, either to ensure compliance with laws and regulations or to reduce risks of negative consequences on the natural environment and human health.
As the human population, industrial activities and energy consumption expand, the continued development of advanced, automated monitoring applications and devices is critical for improving the accuracy of environmental monitoring reports.
How to environmental monitoring performed in chemical industries?
Within an organization, monitoring programs which are published outline and specify which aspects are being monitored, overarching objectives, particular strategies, planned sampling techniques, projects within each strategy and time frames.
Environmental monitoring products and software, such as Environmental Data Management Systems, make it easier to implement and monitor environmental monitoring and assessment programs, which include a central data management hub, automated environmental monitoring alerts, compliance checking, validation, quality control, and the generation of reports based on dataset comparisons.
Chemical Industry Environmental Monitoring
Netsol Water addresses the following issues to ensure employee health and safety.
1: Water testing
We test water for pH, TDS, hardness, coliform, metals, non-metals, and other factors.
2: Wastewater analysis
Organic and inorganic chemicals are commonly found in varying amounts in effluent from the chemical industry. Chemical industrial materials are mutagenic, carcinogenic, poisonous, or almost non-biodegradable. We help to employ cutting-edge, efficient and cost-effective methods to remove dangerous chemicals from wastewater before releasing it into the environment.
The following issues have been discovered in wastewater for chemical industries:
- Floating and suspended solids;
- Hexavalent chromium;
- Cloudy effluent;
- Concentration of metals is high;
- Odour issues;
- There is oil in the system;
- Foaming.
And the aforementioned issues can be rectified by including the substances listed below_
- Precipitants;
- Coagulants;
- Flocculants;
- Defoamers;
- Bioaugmentation.
3: Sampling of the Air
Passive or "diffusive" air sampling relies on climatic variables such as wind to transport contaminants from the atmosphere to a sorbent medium. Passive samplers, such as diffusion tubes, have the benefit of being tiny, silent, and simple to deploy, making them especially valuable in air quality studies that identify significant regions for future continuous monitoring.
Biomonitoring utilizing organisms that bioaccumulate air pollutants, such as lichens, mosses, fungus, and other biomass, can also be used to analyse air pollution. One advantage of this method of sampling is the ability to gather quantitative information through measurements of accumulated molecules that are indicative of the environment from which they came. However, care must be taken in selecting the specific organism, how it is spread, and its relation to the contaminant.
