A brief introduction to Tekran
Founded in 1989 in Toronto, and with their headquarters in Knoxville, Tennessee, Tekran Instruments Corporation (Tekran) manufactures ultra-trace environmental instrumentation with particular emphasis on the measurement of mercury.
Tekran revolutionised the field of continuous mercury monitoring through the use of cold vapour atomic fluorescence spectrophotometry and pure gold preconcentration. Tekran's systems for ultra-trace measurement of mercury in ambient air, stack emissions, aqueous samples and other environments are extraordinarily sensitive and robust with detection limits of less than 0.1 ng/m³ and practical immunity to interfering compounds.
Tekran Instruments Corporation is the world's leading manufacturer of advanced systems for ambient and point source mercury monitoring. Tekran has grown to provide more ambient and CEM mercury installations than any other supplier worldwide.
