Environmental monitoring and testing assess the quality of our air, water, soil, and overall ecosystems. Using advanced technologies and analytical methods, environmental scientists collect and analyze samples to measure levels of pollutants, contaminants, and other factors impacting environmental health. By monitoring changes over time and identifying potential risks to human health, this field plays a vital role in informing policy decisions and implementing effective mitigation strategies. Explore how environmental monitoring and testing contribute to safeguarding our planet's well-being and promoting sustainable development.
The versatile POROPERM determines both porosity and permeability to gas of plug-sized core samples. Specifically, porosity is determined from an isothermal nitrogen expansion and the application of Boyle’s law and Charles’ law. Gas permeability determination is achieved via the steady-state method, and subsequently the equivalent liquid permeability and slip is obtained by linear interpolation. The standard configuration consi…
