Every parameter regulators ask for.
Lioncrown stations measure air, water, noise, weather and stack emissions to the standards set by EPA Ghana, US EPA, the EU and the WHO — with traceable calibration and audit-ready reporting.
Ambient & industrial air.
From fence-line ambient stations to ductwork gas trains, we deploy reference-grade analyzers for the eleven pollutants regulators and communities care about most.

Continuous emission monitoring.
CEMS is our flagship discipline. We specify, install, certify and maintain the full chain — from in-stack probe to regulator portal — for cement, power, refineries and waste-to-energy.
See CEMS hardware →SO₂, NOₓ, CO, CO₂, O₂, HCl, NH₃ with extractive or in-situ analyzers.
Triboelectric, beta-attenuation and double-pass opacity transmissometers.
Pitot, ultrasonic and thermocouple measurement for mass-emission calculations.
DAHS with QAL-2 / QAL-3 routines, sealed audit trail, regulator export.
Automatic submission to EPA Ghana AQI and corporate ESG dashboards.
MCERTS, US EPA PS-1 through PS-15, EN 15267-3 instrument shortlists.
