BOD5/COD: = 1.01
Method:
Result: The BOD5 was reported as 2.18 g/g (converts to 2180 mg/g).
The BOD of 2180 mg/g corresponds to 71 % of theoretical
oxygen demand (3080 mg/l).

Test condition: The methods of the APHA. Standard Method for the Examination
of Water and Wastewater. No.219. American Public Health
Association Inc., New York, (BOD Procedure), 1971 and the
ASTM. Annual Book of ASTM Standards. No. D 1252–67. American
Society for Testing and Materials, Philadelphia, 1974 were
followed. The standard dilution method for determining BOD
was conducted at 20 ± 1°C. Allyl thiourea (0.5 mg/l) was
added to prevent nitrification. Filtered effluent from a
biological sanitary waste treatment plant was used as seed.
