Technical Services
Laboratory Services
Laboratory services that provide value for the food facility’s problem solving
- To determine optimal choice of products to handle a food plant’s water chemistry. Water chemistry analysis is done on makeup waters that are utilized for cleaning solutions and sanitizing solutions.
- To determine soil composition on equipment surfaces (such as heat transfer surfaces or RO/UF membrane systems) to gain knowledge on “Best Practices” for cleaning products and cleaning procedures.
- Use of wet chemistry to determine best means to remove (dissolve or react with) stubborn/difficult food facility soils.
Lab Tools & Methods
Lab Testing Tools and Methods that help us accomplish our problem solving
- Water Analysis (e.g., alkalinity, conductivity, Ca and Mg hardness, iron, manganese, etc.)
- Fourier Transform Infrared Analysis (FTIR)
- Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM)
- Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP)
- SEM/EDS or Scanning Electron Microscopy/Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy
- XPS – ESCA or X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy and Electron Spectroscopy for Chemical Analysis
