Science-Backed Performance with Proven Compliance

One of QEG’s greatest strengths is our laboratory and compliance expertise — giving us unmatched control over system performance, safety, and regulatory assurance.

QEG Operates An Advanced Lab

Core Services Include:

  • Biomethane potential (BMP) asays and substrate feasibility testing
  • Routine digester health monitoring (pH, VFA/alkalinity, ammonia, solids)
  • Regulatory testing and permit compliance verification
  • PFAS and emerging contaminant analysis
  • Pilot-scale digester testing (25 gallon units) for performance simulation
  • Toxicity and stress assays for safe feedtock expansion

These in-house pilot systems let QEG simulate full-scale digestion conditions, ensuring new feedstocks or process changes perform optimally before live deployment
