The ERRC laboratory is a state-of-the-art research facility designed to support a wide range of experimental works in environmental science, analytical chemistry, and materials research. Our lab is equipped with advanced instrumentation and infrastructure to ensure high-quality, accurate, and reproducible results across various research domains.
Additional key equipment includes:
Precision Analytical Balances
- Application: Accurate measurement of solid and liquid samples for all types of experimental procedures.
- Samples: Soils, sediments, plant materials, chemicals, and reagents.
Fume Hoods
- Application: Safe handling and ventilation of hazardous chemicals, acids, and volatile substances during sample preparation and digestion.
- Samples: Acid digestions, solvent extractions, chemical reactions.
Incubators
- Application: Controlled temperature environments for biological sample incubation, microbial culture growth, and chemical reaction studies.
- Samples: Microbial cultures, biological samples, environmental samples requiring constant temperatures.
Centrifuge
- Application: Separation of particulate matter from liquids based on density through high-speed spinning.
- Samples: Water and wastewater samples, soil extracts, microbial cultures, sediment suspensions.
Block Digestor
- Application: Simultaneous digestion of multiple samples at controlled temperatures for chemical analysis (especially for nutrient and heavy metal extraction).
- Samples: Soil, sediment, plant tissues, sludge, and environmental residues.
Colorimeter
- Application: Quantitative analysis of color intensity in solutions to determine concentrations of specific analytes based on absorbance.
- Samples: Water samples (for parameters like nitrate, phosphate, ammonia), soil extracts, and chemical solutions.
