Chemical Analysis
The Regen Waters Laboratory is SANAS accredited with international standards of laboratory methods. We do organic and inorganic analysis in our chemical department.
​
With our highly experienced and qualified team, we have some of the latest technologies and equipment for example, the ICP-MS, GC-MS and Discrete Analyzers, to deliver the best services. The laboratory uses a specialized, purpose built LIMS (Laboratory Information Management System) that ensures full traceability and data integrity throughout the entire process.

ICP-MSThese instruments are used for metal analysis. Because of the mass spectrometer detector the ICP/MS is a very sensitive instrument that can detect very low concentrations which makes it ideal for rare metal analysis. | GC-MSThis instrument is used for organic analysis. | Discrete analyserThis instrument are used for nutrient analysis. | TOC/DOC analyserDissolved organic carbon (DOC) is defined as the organic matter that is able to pass through a filter (filters generally range in size between 0.7 and 0.22 um). Total organic carbon (TOC) is the amount of carbon bound in an organic compound and is often used as a non-specific indicator of water quality or cleanliness of pharmaceutical manufacturing equipment. |
