Description
STL offers the largest capacity and capability in North America for source emissions analytical support. Our laboratories support the full range of methods required by the U.S. EPA and other regulatory agencies. STL is dedicated to meeting the specialized and complex needs of our source test clients.
STL is among the industry's top performers. We have been leaders in this service for 15 years and our personnel are respected for their contributions to source testing science.
STL works with clients to create plans that meet permit requirements. We use US EPA, CARB, ASTM, SW-846, SCAQMD and 40 CFR 60 procedures to provide solutions for the challenges presented by complex source testing programs.
These challenges include:
Analyzing multiple parameters from a single sampling train
Providing ultra-low detection limits for risk assessments
Supporting special sample preparation and cleanup techniques
Overcoming matrix interferences
Customizing and implementing test plans
STL's comprehensive suite of source test services includes:
