Water testing is important for various industries including food and beverages, pharmaceuticals, health, and hospitality.
Besides maintaining quality control and reducing the potential risk of pollutants, water test reports are needed for obtaining licenses, and regulatory compliances.
Certifications & Licences
In India, food and beverage businesses are required to obtain a water testing report from FSSAI recognized and NABL accredited laboratory.
Also, packaged drinking water plants in India must obtain a water testing report from an authorized laboratory for getting certifications/licenses from the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). Water testing is also a requirement of many quality management systems like ISO 900, ISO 22000, ISO 14000 etc as water is a critical supply for most industries.
Quality Control Analysis in the Pharmaceutical Industry
The pharmaceutical manufacturers have to pass stringent quality control tests in order to comply with the regulations of the cGMP. Using impure water can have a detrimental impact on quality, so water testing is essential in the pharmaceutical industry.
Evaluation of Water Quality for Irrigation
According to the guidelines of the Bureau of Indian Standards, the quality of irrigation water must be evaluated in order to improve the effectiveness of fertilizers, minimize the risk of pollutants discharged, and promote optimum plant growth.
Industrial Waste Water Testing
The chemical compounds and pathogens in wastewater can cause potential harm to animals, birds, and plants. The State and Central government has laid down strict regulations for pollution control and made it mandatory for industries to treat wastewater.
This makes industrial wastewater testing important for treatment plants across the country so they can comply with the relevant laws and regulations.
