Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) is a measure of
industrial wastes poured into water bodies
extent to which water is polluted with organic compounds
amount of carbon monoxide inseparably combined with haemoglobin
amount of oxygen needed by green plants during night
B.
extent to which water is polluted with organic compounds
To measure water pollution, BOD or Biological Oxygen Demand test is done. In this test, amount of oxygen sufficient to degrade waste organic matter by bacteria in a sample is measured. The more oxygen used up by the bacteria to degrade the organic matter in the sample, the greter the BOD would be.
