With the continuous improvement of living standards, the requirements of the environment are also more and more attention! Water environment is a problem that we must pay attention to. So what’s the difference between environmental “monitoring” and “testing”? This chapter water quality online monitoring instrument manufacturers to understand environmental monitoring and testing problems together.

Environmental monitoring is an administrative act, a continuous and dynamic process, which is the legal responsibility of administrative organs or their subordinate monitoring agencies. However, environmental testing is a commercial activity, a single process, which is generally carried out by commercial organizations.

· Environmental monitoring is the process of measuring the concentration of pollutants in the environment intermittently or continuously, observing and analyzing their changes and impact on the environment;

The process of environmental monitoring is generally divided into accepting tasks, field investigation and data collection, monitoring plan design, optimized layout, sample collection, sample transportation and storage, sample pretreatment, analysis and testing, data processing, comprehensive evaluation and other links.

· Environmental testing is the inspection and testing of certain environment, pollution sources and pollutants;

In many cases, environmental detection is the identification and inspection of the nature, quantity, concentration and nature of pollutants and pollution sources, such as the measurement of pollutant concentration in domestic wastewater.

 

A Wide Range of Water Environment Monitoring

Industrial production: water and wastewater, drinking water, cooling water and other projects;

Ecological investigation: groundwater, sea water, rivers, lakes, atmospheric precipitation, biological monitoring, Marine organisms, coastal pollution ecological investigation, mariculture area monitoring;

 

The Main Overview of the Following Differences

· Different nature of action

Environmental monitoring: refers to the activities of environmental monitoring institutions to monitor and determine the status of environmental quality;

Environmental testing: is a commercial behavior, is a single process, generally carried out by commercial institutions.

· Different implementation agencies

Environmental monitoring: It is the scientific management of the environment and the supervision of environmental law enforcement by government institutions;

Environmental testing: It is an environmental monitoring station under the jurisdiction of the environmental protection Bureau of each province.

· Different goals

Environmental monitoring: It accurately, timely and comprehensively reflects the status quo and development trend of environmental quality, and provides scientific basis for environmental management, pollution source control and environmental planning.

Environmental detection: According to the requirements, the corresponding environmental objects are detected and the results are obtained.

The process of environmental monitoring often includes environmental testing, such as the inspection of certain pollutants, the nature and composition of pollution sources.

 

Through the above instructions, I hope that no one will be confused about environmental monitoring and environmental testing! If you want to know the knowledge or instruments of water environment monitoring, you can consult Hangzhou Modi-Tech.
