FTIR SPECTROSCOPY FOR SOURCE, SOIL GAS, & PRODUCT EMISSIONS

Wondering how you can check source emissions with a whole new level of confidence? The answer is FTIR spectroscopy by Enthalpy.

You may already know that FTIR spectroscopy is the single most versatile technology for gas phase analysis.

You may already know that it can provide near-real-time emission data for multiple compounds simultaneously. You may have heard that it is great for characterizing gas stream or batch processes, and material off-gasses.

But did you know that FTIR data are only truly usable and defensible when collected by people who have the experience and knowledge to do it right?

Enthalpy is a lab that teams with air and stack testing companies, and whose senior scientists are former stack testers. It's a lab whose FTIR director is nationally recognized for developing FTIR technology. And it's a lab with more than ten years and hundreds of FTIR projects under its belt. Our distinct combination of equipment, competence and accuracy can maximize the benefits of FTIR spectroscopy for you.
