BOD Biochemical Oxygen Demand - the rate at which microorganisms use the oxygen in water or wastewater while stabilizing decomposable organic matter under aerobic conditions. In decomposition, organic matter serves as food for the bacteria and energy results from this oxidation. [Pg.608]

The size of most biological reactors is determined by pollution load, for example, kg BOD (biochemical oxygen demand) or COD (chemical oxygen demand) per kg MLVSS (mixed liquor volatile suspended solids) per day in the case of suspended growth type systems, and kg BOD or COD per m3 of media or reactor volume in the case of fixed-film type systems.
