Our laboratory provides service for the analysis of both traditional and non-traditional fuels, different types of combustion residues and certain flue gas parameters. The laboratory is equipped for measuring thermal and technical parameters necessary to determine fuel and energy potential of different materials. We are also able to investigate physical and chemical properties of the products of combustion and pyrolysis as well as the chemical composition of other materials.
