Industrial

Ektimo provides comprehensive air emissions testing, monitoring and assessment services across the industrial, resources, infrastructure and built environment sectors.

Our capabilities include stack emissions testing, Continuous Emissions Monitoring Systems (CEMS), Predictive Emissions Monitoring Systems (PEMS), ambient air quality monitoring (AQMS), near-reference monitoring and rental monitoring equipment.

Ektimo supports a diverse range of applications including power generation, manufacturing, waste and resource recovery, mineral processing and mineral extraction operations, as well as major construction and infrastructure projects. This includes monitoring associated with tunnels, road and rail infrastructure, excavation, earthworks, demolition and other activities where air emissions, dust or air quality may require assessment and management.

Ektimo combines experienced field teams, advanced instrumentation, emissions sampling, data analysis and technical expertise to deliver fit-for-purpose monitoring solutions for both established industrial facilities and complex project environments.

Our services can support clients from project planning and baseline assessments through to construction monitoring, commissioning, regulatory compliance and ongoing operational monitoring. For the resources and mineral extraction sector, Ektimo can provide monitoring solutions across extraction, processing and associated infrastructure, while for built infrastructure projects we can assess emissions and ambient air quality around tunnels, construction sites and other major developments.

This integrated capability provides clients with reliable, defensible environmental data to demonstrate compliance, manage environmental risks and support informed operational and project decisions.
