Drinking Water
To protect the world's most vital resources requires instruments, accessories and software that can not only meet but also exceed your productivity, accuracy and regulatory requirements.
We offer environmental analytical solutions tailored to your priorities together with Shimadzu which, with a strong concern for improving and protecting the environment, has been specializing in the development of instruments for environmental analysis for decades and our other partners. Among the environmental applications where we can support you, are atmosphere, discharge water, grounwater, environment water, drinking water, pool water, PCB, dioxins, asbestos tests, RoHS, ELV, REACH etc. regulatory tests, soil, fertilizer, waste material tests.
Shimadzu also provides solutions for new energy applications such as Photovoltaic cell, Li-ion Battery, Fuel Cells, Articial Photosynthesis.

Microscopic plastic with a size of several μm to 5 mm or less is called microplastic. As a marine environmental problem that adversely affects coastlines and marine ecosystems, and consequently may potentially affect human health, microplastics have become a global issue in recent years. As early action is necessary to protect the global environment, various analytical devices are used to designate the sources of microplastics and study countermeasures.
This article introduces measurement of microplastics with a size on the order of several mm and use of the Shimadzu thermal-damaged plastics library to identify the samples.
