EMISSIONS TESTING
STACK EMISSIONS TESTING
Stack Emissions Testing
Stack Emissions Testing (stack sampling or stack monitoring) enables you to demonstrate your compliance against regulated emission limits outlined for permitted processes.
Stack testing measures the amount of specific regulated pollutants or surrogates which are being emitted from your facility.
Key Benefits
- Ensure you are compliant to regulated emission limits in your permit
- Avoid future fines and prosecutions
- Avoid emergency situations and plant shut down
- Get practical advice on how pollutant emissions can be effectively managed
- Receive comprehensive data for Part A1/A2 or Part B emissions monitoring
- Provide data for your Environmental Impact Assessment surveys
- Measure your process efficiency and process control
- ISO 17025 UKAS-MCERTS accredited emissions testing
- BS EN 14181 QAL and ASTs
Description
Emissions Monitoring is a mandatory requirement for any company who emits pollutants from stack. This is documented in many Environment Agency and Local Authority Permits. The requirement for stack emissions testing is determined based on potential environmental impacts from your business. The higher your emissions the more meticulous the requirements for monitoring.
It is important for you to understand the pollutants that your organization are emitting to the air. Envirocare are fully ISO 17025 UKAS and MCERTS accredited and can help you test for a wide variety of parameters including:

What to expect
Stack testing is required either on an annual basis or sometimes needs to be monitored continuously over a 24-hour period depending on the scale of emissions being emitted.
You will receive a professional and friendly response to discuss and determine your stack testing needs. This will be a call or a site meeting with one of our experts to discuss your testing requirements, sampling location and access.
Once this has been determined our stack team will come out to your site and conduct the required testing. You will receive reports which will detail the results of your stack testing and you can then use this to ensure and demonstrate that you are meeting your permit requirements.
