Predicting biochemical oxygen demand in European freshwater bodies. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Total Environ, 2019
Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) is an indicator of organic pollution in freshwater bodies correlated to microbiological contamination. High BOD concentrations reduce oxygen availability, degrade aquatic habitats and biodiversity, and impair water use.

Methods for assessing biochemical oxygen demand (BOD): A review

open access: yesWater Research, 2014
The Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) is one of the most widely used criteria for water quality assessment. It provides information about the ready biodegradable fraction of the organic load in water. However, this analytical method is time-consuming (generally 5 days, BOD5), and the results may vary according to the laboratory (20%), primarily due to ...
