Ensure Water and Sediment Quality Compliance with Expert Aquatic Chemistry Assessments

We provide specialized aquatic chemistry services to evaluate the chemical, physical, and biological processes that influence water and sediment quality. Having completed more than 700 projects involving water and sediment quality data collection, analysis, and interpretation, our scientists bring unmatched expertise in managing complex datasets and applying advanced statistical and geochemical tools. From evaluating nutrient and metal mobility to supporting the development of site-specific water quality objectives, we deliver scientifically defensible insights that protect aquatic life and ensure regulatory compliance.
Service Specifics

Our Aquatic Chemistry Services

See how Trinity applies aquatic chemistry expertise to guide project decisions and regulatory compliance.

We collect, analyze, and interpret water and sediment chemistry data, comparing results to baseline conditions, reference data, and protective guidelines to identify potential risks to aquatic life.

Our team conducts detailed studies of sediment chemistry, porewater composition, redox status, speciation, and attenuation rates to understand contaminant mobility and ecosystem impacts.

We perform contaminant flux and transport analyses, selective chemical extractions, and use tools like Diffusive Gradients in Thin Films (DGT) to assess bioavailability and risk.

Our scientists apply advanced models – including GoldSim, PHREEQC, and the Biotic Ligand Model (BLM) – to predict contaminant behavior, bioavailability, and ecological effects under site-specific conditions.

With experience contributing to the development of use-protection guidelines and water quality objectives, we ensure data interpretation and compliance strategies align with regulatory expectations.

Having performed more than 700 successful projects, we can ensure you achieve your goals.

Aquatic Chemistry Services FAQ

Aquatic chemistry examines the chemical and physical processes in water and sediment that influence contaminant behavior and ecosystem health. It is essential for understanding risks to aquatic life and for meeting regulatory requirements.

We provide end-to-end services, including sampling, laboratory analysis, statistical evaluation, and comparisons to baseline and regulatory guidelines to ensure accurate, defensible results.

Our expertise includes nutrients, metals, and other constituents in water and sediment, with an emphasis on speciation, partitioning, redox processes, and contaminant bioavailability.

We use advanced tools such as geochemical modeling (GoldSim, PHREEQC), Diffusive Gradients in Thin Films (DGT), and the Biotic Ligand Model (BLM) to evaluate contaminant fate, transport, and toxicity.

Industries such as mining, pulp and paper, energy, and infrastructure development benefit from aquatic chemistry assessments to support permitting, environmental monitoring, and long-term compliance.
