Industrial Hygiene and Workplace Measurements

YOUR INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE NEEDS

We can help you plan and carry out Industrial Hygiene and Workplace measurements including selecting the proper methods to use; selecting the correct sampling media for the application; calculating the amount of sample to be collected; calculating the required flow rates and sampling time; providing method reporting limits; providing the necessary sampling equipment and instructions; providing the sampling media along with all documentation (Chain of Custody, Sampling Procedures, Sampling Log sheets, etc) and additional supplies such as containers, vials or bottles; providing custom spiking solutions for field testing and audit purposes; providing analysis following agency or custom methods; and providing you with the final data package including QA/QC reports and when requested Electronic Data Deliverables (EDD).

EXPERTISE

AAC has extensive Industrial Hygiene VOC and Carbonyl measurement experience using EPA methods TO-14, TO-15, TO-11 and IP-6A. In addition, we have experience with many NIOSH methods including 7903 for Inorganic Acids, 7401 for Alkaline Dusts and other basic salts, 3503 for Hydrazine, 5506 for Aromatic Hydrocarbons, and 6010 for Cyanide. Please see our Analytical Capabilities document for additional details of what Industrial Hygiene services we offer.

AAC has been measuring Isocyanates (TDI, MDI, HDI, etc) using OSHA 42 and other equivalent methods for over a decade.

We have extensive expertise with Volatile Sulfur Compounds (VSCs) analyses using a modified version of ASTM D-5504 to achieve a ca.1ppbv reporting limit for H2S, COS, CS2 and other speciated sulfur compounds.

AAC has over 22 years of experience in the measurement of ammonia, speciated amines, and organic acids using a variety of solutions and substrates.

We provide certified Sampling Media including Summa canisters and flow controllers for all types of ambient air measurements. Please contact us for your specific needs.

AAC has been using passive samplers to measure Formaldehyde using EPA IP-6C, as well as Ozone, SO2, NO2, and other pollutants for a number of years. These passive sampling devices are especially useful for indoor air and industrial hygiene applications as they do not require sampling equipment or electricity and are small and easy to leave somewhere for unattended operation.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

We have a long history of Research and Development and are experts at developing new methods as well as improving existing ones to meet client’s needs. We are often asked to expand the analyte list of existing methods and are experts at testing and validating additional analytes. We are also able to modify current methods by changing solution chemistries, solution volumes, or sampling protocols to meet specific client needs. We can perform method validation tests including spiking, stability, reproducibility, and gas phase recovery studies.
