Chemical oxygen demand (COD) using microwave digestion

Water Research, 1989
Abstract A new approach to determine the Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) using a microwave digestion to replace the conventional time consuming reflux method is proposed. The procedure uses a microwave oven for the digestion of small volumes of sample (from 500 up to 2000 μ1), in a completely closed 60 ml Teflon vessel. For samples showing COD values up

Analysis of chemical compositions contributable to chemical oxygen demand (COD) of oilfield produced water

Chemosphere, 2006
This work was to give a comprehensive estimation for the chemical compositions contributable to COD of the produced water treatment system. For this purpose, the wastewater samples were collected from an onshore wastewater treatment plant. The chemical compositions of the wastewater were investigated, and the COD contributed by each component was ...

Determination of chemical oxygen demand (COD) using an alternative wet chemical method free of mercury and dichromate

Water Research, 2017
Worldwide, the standard methods for the determination of the important wastewater parameter chemical oxygen demand (COD) are still based on the use of the hazardous chemicals, mercury sulfate and chromium(VI). However, due to their properties they are meanwhile classified as "priority pollutants" and shall be phased out or banned in the frame of REACH (

A solid chemical oxygen demand (COD) method for determining biomass in waste waters

Water Research, 1996
Abstract A method of biomass determination similar to volatile suspended solids (VSS) that used chemical oxygen demand (COD) as a detection method instead of gravimetric methods is described. The “solid COD” method has a strong correlation with VSS for biomass at different stages of growth on different wastewaters including municipal sewage and ...

A modified method for the determination of chemical oxygen demand (COD) for samples with high salinity and low organics

Bioresource Technology, 2009
This study proposes a modification to the standard method for the determination of the chemical oxygen demand of samples with a salinity up to 40 g NaCl/L and low organic concentrations (20-230 mg COD/L). The masking of chloride by the use of a HgSO(4):Cl ratio of 20:1 prior to digestion, and the use of 3g K(2)Cr(2)O(7)/L in the digestion solution ...

Prediction of Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) Based on Wavelet Decomposition and Neural Networks

Clean - Soil, Air, Water, 2007
AbstractThe chemical oxygen demand (COD) parameter of a wastewater treatment plant is predicted based on wavelet decomposition, entropy, and neural networks (NN) for rapid COD analysis. This paper also describes the usage of wavelet and NNs for parameter prediction. Data from a wastewater treatment plant in Malatya, Turkey, were used.

Silver recovery and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal from waste fixer solutions

Applied Energy, 2012
Abstract This study focused on the silver recovery from waste fixer solutions by electrolysis under different experimental conditions. During an 8 h electrolysis procedure, the silver recovery efficiencies were 10.57%, 11.75%, 45.5%, 62.68%, and 83.88% for electric currents of 0.1 A, 0.3 A, 0.5 A, 0.7 A, and 0.9 A, respectively.
