Data analysis for material evaluation
The IQS is developing problem solutions in the field of sampling and quality assurance for:
- powder, bulks, sludges, ceramic masses, sediments of lakes and rivers
- refuse derived fuel (called, too: 'alternative solid fuel recovered from used lightweight packagings´, ´specified recovered fuel´, SRF), recycled lightweight packagings
- metals scrap, metalcontaining waste, electronics scrap, cabel scrap
- broken glass, recycling glass
- dangerous waste accumulated over the years, contaminated soils and unsuspected soils (such as mineral oil or mercury and its volatile organic compounds)
- inflammable waste endangered by spontaneous combustion - such as plastics and paper -which were disposed and dumped
- municipal solid waste that is removed from households to waste utilization plants
- scrap wood, recycling products, waste
- rubber
- foam, porous materials in catalytic converters, filter
- sand, gravel
and other material systems.
an example: quality control cards for supervision of the process of sorting lightweight packagings on example of the valuable fraction "Polypropylen (PP)"
quality control: quality control cards for supervision of the process of sorting lightweight packagings on example of the valuable fraction "Polystyrol (PS)"
Data analysis for quality assurance of sampling, investigation and evaluation
1) Degree of reproducibility of valuable fractions obtained from processing of leightweight packagings in dependence on the number of samples
2) Maximum uncertainty of measurement of the caloric value of alternative solid fuels from recycled lightweight packagings in dependence on the number of samples, some processing plants in comparison
The IQS is offering specific services (service of laboratory analysis included) for interested companies.
