Lab-services

Norsk Spesialolje's accredited laboratory can perform a variety of analyses of liquid waste.

Om Laboratoriet

Norsk Spesialolje AS has laboratories in Bamble and Moss. The laboratories function as operational laboratories and have analyses for receiving control as their most important work area.

The laboratory in Bamble is a contract laboratory for external customers, the contract laboratory was accredited in 1994 by Norsk Akkreditering (Test 027). The accreditation applies to selected analysis methods. The requirements for accreditation are in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025. This also satisfies the ISO-9000 series (1994).

Norsk Spesialolje aims for the customer to receive the analysis result within 2 working days for express orders and 5 working days for normal orders. Special assignments or larger sample shipments also require longer time. For larger orders, please request a quote.

PFAS Analyses: 30 components

PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are a group of synthetic chemicals that have been used since the 1940s in a variety of products due to their unique properties. These substances are known to be very stable, water and grease repellent and heat resistant. They are found in food packaging, Teflon pans, water-repellent textiles, ski lubrication, fire-fighting foam and cosmetics, among other things.

PFAS are produced synthetically and consist of carbon and fluorine atoms bonded together in very strong bonds. This chemical structure makes them almost indestructible in nature. PFAS are often referred to as "forever substances" because they break down extremely slowly and accumulate in the environment over time.

PFAS spread easily in nature and are found in soil, water and air all over the world. The substances have been detected even in remote areas such as the Arctic. The use of PFAS in fire-fighting foam and industry has led to serious contamination of groundwater in many areas.

NSO performs analyses to detect PFAS components in water and glycol​. The following components can be detected with us:
