Eco-Toxicity, Bioaccumulation & Biodegradability

Eco-toxicity, Bioaccumulation and Biodegradability

Having a thorough knowledge of how various chemicals, biocides, and industrial effluents taint our environment is an absolute necessity as global concerns continue to rise. At TPI, we provide a full range of eco-toxicity and biodegradability testing in Nigeria, ensuring that your operations meet strict environmental safety standards.

Our clients prefer TPI as their one-stop provider for ecotoxicity and bioaccumulation services because we deliver precise environmental toxicology analyses across various matrices—including water, soils, sediments, and effluent. Whether you operate in the oil and gas sector, manufacturing, or pharmaceuticals, our eco-toxicity and biodegradability testing in Nigeria helps you safeguard the ecosystem while maintaining compliance.

Why Prioritize Eco-toxicity and Biodegradability Testing in Nigeria?

Regulatory bodies in Nigeria, such as the Federal Ministry of Environment and NESREA, are increasingly enforcing stricter guidelines on waste disposal and chemical management. To avoid sanctions and environmental degradation, companies must rigorously test their by-products.

We have experience with a vast number of freshwater and marine test organisms in both acute and chronic toxicity studies. Our team is knowledgeable in testing and analytically establishing exposure levels in a variety of environmental matrices. All our studies are closely monitored with current analytical equipment and technical competence to ensure accuracy.

Our Compliance and Standards

We have been conducting ecotoxicological test design (sampling, testing, and reporting) for over 15 years. We assist industries that want to comply with local and international standards, such as those set by the OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) and ISO.

Our eco-toxicity and biodegradability testing in Nigeria covers:

  • Acute Toxicity Tests: Determining the immediate impact of chemicals on aquatic life (e.g., Fish, Daphnia, Algae).

  • Biodegradability Studies: Assessing how quickly substances break down in the Nigerian environment (Ready and Inherent Biodegradability).

  • Bioaccumulation Studies: Measuring how chemicals accumulate in biological organisms over time.

  • Effluent Monitoring: Routine analysis of industrial discharge to ensure it meets safety limits before entering water bodies.
