Biochemical oxygen demand dissolved organic matter

Biochemical oxygen demand (BOD)- Amount of dissolved oxygen consumed in five days by biological processes breaking down organic matter. [Pg.607]

Biochemical Oxygen Demand A numerical estimate of contamination in water expressed in milligrams per liter of dissolved oxygen. A measure of the amount of oxygen consumed in biological processes that break down organic matter in water. [Pg.297]

Biochemical Oxygen Demand (B.O.D.) n A standard test for estimating the degree of contamination of water supplies. It is expressed as the quantity of dissolved oxygen (in mg/1) required during stabilization of the decomposable organic matter by aerobic biochemical action. [Pg.80]
