Voelcker Consultants have been active
in analytical chemistry for over 140 years, originally
Dr. Augustus Voelcker and Sons, the firm was founded
as an analytical and consulting chemists. This long
history of undertaking analytical work gives us the
experience needed to devise appropriate solutions for
the analysis of soils, waters and other environmental
media to suit the needs of our clients.
We manage analytical testing primarily
generated from our site investigations; we also undertake
sampling and ‘analysis only’ work for a
number of clients. This work is undertaken through a
combination of our in-house and our preferred external
sub-contract laboratories. Samples are only sent to
approved laboratories which are UKAS accredited. We
also offer an interpretation of analytical data service.
The choice of determinants for analysis
of samples should be made on a site specific basis,
considering a number of factors including past, current
and future site use as well as visual and olfactory
observations of the materials encountered.
However,
it is still useful to have a suite of contaminants
as a screening tool for sites where no information
is available pertaining to historic site activities
or where Made Ground is present. The following packages
are presented as examples of those commonly in use;
VCON1
- Standard Contamination Package 1 (Former ICRCL)
(Soils)
VCON2
- Standard Contamination Package 2 (Soils)
VCON3
- Standard Contamination Package 3 (Soils)
As part of our consultancy services
we are able to arrange for the collection of samples
and undertake the sampling as required.
We have in house landfill/ground gas
monitoring capabilities and undertake monitoring of
gas wells for a number of contract clients. Monitoring
capabilities include a range of VOCs, CH4,
CO, CO2, O2,
H2S, flow rates and combustible
gasses.
Voelcker Consultants have extensive
experience in undertaking analysis of soils, waters,
gas and other environmental media. Please contact
for a discussion of your requirements.
