Smart Water Solutions: online toxicity biomonitoring
Our multispecies toximeter is based on more than 30 scientific publications and can be used as biological alert system in water, soil and sediment.
Our biomonitor has been applied in waterworks, wastewater treatment plants, rivers and groundwater, as well as in research institutes, based on individual configuration.
Our field station operates with solar energy and is combined with an autosampler to take automated water samples triggered by biomonitor alarms. Alarm data are transferred via long range datatransfer.

LimCo International:
Innovative monitoring systems for water quality control
Water is one of the most controlled resource in the world. However, toxic substances end up in the water and cause severe deterioration of water quality. As company or authority in the water sector water quality is crucial for your business success and achievement of your goals. Therefore, continuous control of water quality is most important for you.
Based on scientific research LimCo International has been developing innovative toximeters since 1994 and offers you highly sensitive online biomonitors to permanently survey your water quality in real time. In wastewater treatment plants, authorities, agencies, companies, industries, fish farms, aquacultures, hydro dams, drinking water industry, our real-time impedance based online biomonitors record water quality in both freshwater and seawater, as well as in soil and sediments.
