Analytical Services
Airzone One offers laboratory services to support ambient air, occupational health & safety, indoor air quality, other projects and external client activities. Our laboratory is highly specialized and organized for flexible and rapid delivery of services
Occupational Health and Safety
Airzone One’s occupational health and safety group is experienced in the design and management of programs, audits, policies and procedures and training programs. Our staff of occupational hygienists have the expertise to perform inspections, conduct training sessions, identify toxic agents, and make recommendations to achieve regulatory compliance, thus reducing risks and personal and property losses, improving productivity, employee morale and the overall effectiveness of health and safety at a facility.
In addition to providing routine modelling of airborne pollutants with regulatory models, we also provide consulting services related to air dispersion modelling such as input and output data interpretation.
Airzone One provides a variety of air quality services with a base of experience spanning more than 30 years. We deal with regulatory requirements for air quality monitoring but we also have unique capabilities to deliver many other air quality services.
Passive air sampling is a method of determining airborne concentrations of volatile contaminants using a passive sampling device (PSD). Instead of using bulky pumps and sorbents, such as charcoal in glass tubes, or summa canisters, air samples are collected with a small badge-like device that relies on the diffusion of compounds to a collection surface or sorbent.
Airzone One’s permitting experience includes involvement in permit applications for many industrial, commercial and institutional facilities over the past ten years. The permitting group’s leader, Franco DiGiovanni, has been involved in the consultative processes leading to the development of the new guidance documents for the new application process and he continues to serve in technical groups guiding the implementation of the new application procedures.
Airzone One is experienced in conducting noise impact assessments that are acceptable to the Ministry of the Environment.
Airzone has been involved in many vapour intrusion projects. In particular, we assist with the design and implementation of the indoor and ambient sampling surveys to delineate the extent of the impact of contaminated sites and the potential for exposure of residents. We continue to work on these projects and have been involved in consulting with industries on mitigating the effects of chemical exposures in indoor environments. Furthermore, we provide sampling and laboratory services to monitor chemicals in the affected indoor environments.
We provide comprehensive emissions reporting services. Our staff, through frequent interaction with government agencies, stays current with existing and proposed reporting standards. We can help your company organize, quantify and submit emission reports for O. Reg. 127, NPRI, GHG (Federally and Provincially), the Toxics Reduction Act and Toronto’s ChemTRAC reporting. Moreover, we can assist with recent requirements in reporting and modelling for municipalities.
