Question

Accepted Answer

COD and BOD are important parameters used to measure the organic pollution in water bodies.

COD stands for Chemical Oxygen Demand and is a measure of the amount of oxygen required to chemically oxidize organic compounds in water.
BOD stands for Biological Oxygen Demand and is a measure of the amount of oxygen consumed by microorganisms in water to decompose organic matter.
Both COD and BOD are used to assess the level of organic pollution in water bodies, with higher values indicating higher pollution levels.
COD is a faster test compared to BOD and provides a measure of both biodegradable and non-biodegradable organic compounds.
BOD is a slower test that specifically measures the biodegradable organic compounds in water.
COD and BOD values are important for determining the effectiveness of wastewater treatment processes and the overall health of aquatic ecosystems.
