Zo’n tachtig waterzuiveringsinstallaties in Nederland geven een verhoogd risico op verspreiding van de bacterie legionella, waardoor mensen ziek kunnen worden, blijkt uit onderzoek van het RIVM. Het gaat om installaties voor de zuivering van industrieel afvalwater en rioolwater.

Volgens het Rijksinstituut voor Volksgezondheid en Milieu zouden de betreffende zuiveringsinstallaties maatregelen moeten nemen om verspreiding te voorkomen. Daarbij zouden er beschermingsmaatregelen voor medewerkers nodig zijn.

Legionellabacteriën kunnen onder andere ernstige longontsteking veroorzaken. In 2018 waren er bijna zeshonderd patiënten met longontsteking door legionella in Nederland, twee keer zoveel vergeleken met vijf jaar eerder. “Meestal kan niet achterhaald worden waar de ziekteverwekkers vandaan komen. Maar de afgelopen jaren is een aantal patiënten ziek geworden door het inademen van legionellabacteriën die waarschijnlijk uit een afvalwaterzuiveringsinstallatie komen”, aldus het gezondheidsinstituut.

iQ-FTIR: Self research

To meet the ships and platforms in their need to actually be constantly aware of the quality of the process water,
IQ Lab has designed IQ-FTIR. This device, in contrast to the laboratory on land used FTIR, does not work with toxic
solvents and thus may be used offshore.

The IQ-FTIR gives a fairly accurate result of the amount of mineral oils in the water to be discharged within 5 minutes and thereby a good indication whether the process can be proceeded.
The official measurement still has to be completed on land, but this way a platform or ship can intervene itself when
they observe that the measurements goes beyond certain values .

IQ Laboratory enjoys international confidence with ISO 17025 accreditation.

Friday January 27th 2012 Rakesh Autar and Lucien Helstone of IQ Laboratory celebrated reaching an impressive milestone. One month before the third anniversary of IQ Lab they received the official ISO 17025 accreditation on behalf of the Board of Accreditation.

This international certification guarantees the quality and reliability of both the management and technical competence of the laboratory. Thus IQ Laboratory is the third laboratory in the
Netherlands that has obtained this prestigious qualification. The ‘business statement’, as both founders formulated
in 2009, can already be adjusted: the first major objective is achieved.
