BOD Flashcards
BOD Formula
Consumed DO x (vol of dil sample/vol of sample)
rate of deoxygenation/ satisfaction of BOD
Temp,amt and nature of org material present in sewage
what is Lt
oxygen equivalent of carbonaceous oxidable org matter present in sewage t days from the start of oxid process in mg/L
order of BOD rxn
1st
what is Kd 20 range
0.05 to 0.2
why simple compounds have higher Kd
easily utilised by microorg, eg sugars and starches. i.e why complex molecules like phenols have low Kd as diff to assimilate
what is BOD
Biochemical oxygen demand
what is CBOD
Carbonaceous Biochemical oxygen demand
what is NOD
Nitrogeneous oxygen demand
what is NBOD
Nitrogeneous biochemical oxygen demand
WHat is 1st stage BOD
CBOD/CARBONACEOUS DEMAND
What is second stage BOD
Nitrification demand
