The importance of Primary Clarification and how it can impact Effluent BOD.
A common problem in aerated stabilization basins (ASBs), is oxygen deficiency. Oxygen deficiency can arise for a variety of reasons, such as a power outage, aerators being down for maintenance, scavenging of oxygen by chemical compounds containing sulfur, or upstream...
The biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) test is a measurement of the quantity of oxygen required by bacteria to biologically oxidize organic material under aerobic conditions. Biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) is usually expressed in mg/L but can also be expressed in...
