Industries and Manufacturing Clients

Endyne offers supplies and services for wastewater, stormwater and process testing, solids and hazardous waste. We have the capabilities to analyze a variety of waste, including breweries, dairy processing, chemical washes, food processes, and many others. We also offer a range of microbiological testing for food products, rinsates and environmental swabs.

Environmental Consultants

For Brownfields, Petroleum Clean-up projects, landfill monitoring, site evaluations and other projects, we provide sample containers, filtering and sampling supplies, and coolers for easy collection and transport. Please contact the lab for specific details regarding your project needs.

Wastewater Treatment Plant Operators

We work with dozens of municipal and industrial Wastewater Operators to accommodate permit requirements, sampling schedules and quick turn-around reporting. We are happy to set up weekly, bi-weekly and/or monthly sampling schedules, using a convenient courier pick-up and drop-off system to ensure timely deliveries.

State DEC and Drinking Water Systems

Regulations and drinking water requirements vary by state. We work closely with State agencies to help ensure proper monitoring and reporting procedures. Sample kits are available for all State requirements, and can accommodate both chlorinated and non-chlorinated systems.

Homeowners and Real Estate Agents

Whether you have a private well, are buying or selling a home, or are drilling a new well, our goal is to provide comprehensive testing and results in a format that the layperson can understand. We can provide recommendations for the most commonly tested parameters, or address specific issues you may be experiencing. If you have already received your laboratory report, you can visit Be Well Informed, a tool developed by the State of New Hampshire, to check and interpret your results.

Microbiological

Our microbiological lab provides a wide range of services for bacterial testing. We provide our clients with sterile bottles, swabs, plates and media kits to accommodate a variety of matrices from potable water to solids and food products. We offer both presence/absence and quantitative data, with extensive quality control procedures to ensure accurate results.

Laboratory QA/QC Policy Statement

Each individual analysis that is performed by Endyne is of critical importance to us. It is thus imperative that Endyne be able to assure the validity of each result that is reported. To this end, Endyne observes the QAQC protocol detailed below. In summary, the strategy consists of:

  1. Participation in NELAP approved Performance Evaluation Tests for both drinking water and waste water.
  2. Calibration verification standards analyzed daily.
  3. Analysis of independent QC standards every 10 samples and continued charting of this data to define method precision and accuracy.
  4. Monthly performance of intra-laboratory performance tests.
  5. Duplicate laboratory analyses every 20 samples.
  6. Analysis of matrix spike samples every 20 samples.
  7. Analysis of laboratory blanks every 20 samples.
  8. For appropriate methods, surrogate analytes are evaluated to monitor the performance of each individual analysis.
  9. Review of calculations from data and checking of reported values.

We maintains a variety of certifications in Vermont, New Hampshire, and New York. In accordance with certification requirements, the Endyne participates biannually in several EPA sponsored blind performance evaluation studies. Further, the laboratory is routinely visited by Certification Officers to review laboratory procedures and operations first hand.

Experience

Endyne has a broad and diverse range of project experience ranging from the analysis of drinking water to monitoring large scale subsurface remediation projects. Examples of the types of projects in which Endyne has participated include: hazardous waste characterization, industrial and municipal discharge compliance, Phase II/V Federal drinking water compliance, landfill monitoring, industrial hygiene testing, underground storage tank testing, sludge land application studies, dairy waste testing, TCLP/Priority Pollutant analyses and much more.

Capabilities

Endyne is truly a full-service laboratory and maintains a staff of 18 professionals in a modern 6000 square foot facility. The laboratory is equipped with state-of-the-art instrumentation in each of the three divisions. The organics laboratory is equipped with several Agilent GC, GC/MS systems for the analysis of environmentally significant organic compounds. Available GC detectors include: MS, ECD, FID and PID. The laboratory routinely processes samples for EPA 8000 and 600 series including: 8020, 8100, 8260, 8270, 601, 602, 608, 610 and 625.

The metals analysis laboratory is equipped with two Thermo Scientific Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) instruments for the analysis of metal species. One utilizes an Optical Emission Spectrophotometer (ICP-OES) and the other a Mass Spectrometer (ICP-MS). Enydne processes samples in accordance with EPA methods 6010 and 200.7 for the ICP-OES, and 6020 and 200.8 for the ICP-MS.

The inorganic laboratory, or wet lab, is equipped with all the instrumentation necessary to perform gravimetric, titrimetric and spectrophotometric assays. We have been performing all the testing required under the NPDES discharge requirements since 1987.
