We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "EPA (Environmental Protection Agency)",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Processingtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen filter sample analysis from
Exeter Analytical (UK), which we summarised at the time by saying "Exeter Analytical presents a method for easy, direct automated elemental analysis of material retained on glass or quartz microfibre filters used in water filtration and air
monitoring applications".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Three years of successful UV disinfection in NY from
Aquionics Inc: "It is now nearly three years since the Poughkeepsie Water Treatment Facility in New York state installed six Aquionics UV disinfection systems for drinking water treatment".
In January 2008, we covered the news from CleanAir Systems
concerning its Emissions Handbook
- take a look at Emissions manual for air pollution professionals
which says: "CleanAir Systems, a leading manufacturer of emissions control systems, has released a newly revised version of their popular Emissions and Product Guidebook for air pollution professionals".
Take a look also at the news release from Applied Market Information, Conference report on Waterproof Membranes 2007,
as well as Calcium hardness monitor protects water systems from Thermo Fisher Scientific,
and New Orion high-performance ammonia ISE from Thermo Fisher Scientific.
