BQCIS

Comprehensive Detection of Toxic and Regulated Substances

BQCIS provides laboratory testing and chemical screening to detect and quantify hazardous substances in raw materials, finished products, and waste streams. Testing aligns with global regulations including REACH (EC 1907/2006), CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008), GHS, EPA TCLP, and UNEP hazardous waste protocols.

Our services support manufacturers, recyclers, and waste management facilities in verifying chemical composition and classification for environmental, health, and transport compliance. Tests include identification of heavy metals, volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds, persistent organic pollutants (POPs), and restricted chemicals.

Using advanced instrumentation such as GC-MS, LC-MS, ICP-OES, ICP-MS, and FTIR, BQCIS provides defensible data for regulatory submission, safety data sheets (SDS), and product stewardship programs.

Key Activities in Hazardous Substance Testing

REACH SVHC Screening

Detection of Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) exceeding threshold levels using GC-MS and ICP-MS analysis.

RoHS Heavy Metal Testing

Quantitative determination of Pb, Cd, Hg, and Cr⁶⁺ in electronic and mechanical components per IEC 62321.

VOC & SVOC Analysis

Gas chromatography analysis for volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds under EPA TO-14/15 methods.

POP & Pesticide Determination

GC-MS/MS analysis of persistent organic pollutants (POPs), PCBs, and organochlorine pesticides.

Leachability Testing (TCLP)

Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (EPA 1311) for hazardous waste classification and landfill acceptance.

Chemical Classification & SDS Validation

Verification of hazard classification and labeling according to CLP/GHS standards for chemical safety documentation.

Industrial Waste Screening

Identification of hazardous residues and effluents from manufacturing and processing operations.

Environmental Risk Assessment Support

Analytical data integration for environmental impact assessment and remediation planning.

Phthalate Screening

Testing for restricted phthalates in plastics and consumer products to ensure compliance with global regulations.

Key Benefits of Hazardous Substance Testing

Regulatory Compliance

Supports pollution control and sustainable waste management through verified testing data.

Traceable Reporting

Traceable Reporting

Provides defensible laboratory reports with QA/QC traceability for audits and compliance records.

Success Story

Hazardous Waste Characterization for Petrochemical Refinery

The Challenge:

A petrochemical plant required independent verification of refinery sludge and spent catalyst classification before export and disposal.

Our Solution:

BQCIS conducted TCLP testing for heavy metals, GC-MS analysis for PAHs and VOCs, and classified waste streams under UN and Basel codes.

The Result:

Accurate classification enabled compliant disposal routing and avoided regulatory penalties. The client achieved full environmental permit renewal.
