Sludge samples should be delivered cooled in order to prevent gas evolution.
If results are requested within 24 hours, subsampling is made without prior drying and sieving. For non-homogenous samples, drying and sieving is recommended to get a representative subsample. Results can then be delivered within 2 days.
For 2 days or faster analysis, please send sample(s) directly to the ALS laboratory in Luleå. For questions please contact us.
