anaerobic digestion is the breakdown of biodegradable organic material by microorganisms in the absence of oxygen or in an oxygen-starved environment.this technology is superior to the landfilling and also the aerobic composting. the aim of the present study was to examine whether the effluent volatile fatty acids from the anaerobic acidogenesis of the food waste can be used du to its high valu...

In the present study the aim of investigation is physical and chemical parameters of ground water and soil. By selected Physical and chemical parameters it is found that (1).Biological oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) are directly proportional to each other where dissolved oxygen (DO) is indirectly proportional to BOD and COD. (2). Total dissolved solids, alkalinity and hard...

a bioreactor equipped with hollow fiber microfiltration membranes was applied for wastewater treatment. removal of chemical oxygen demand (cod) and biochemical oxygen demand (bod5) was investigated. the experimental setup consisted of influent and effluent tanks, and membrane modules using polyvinyl di–fluoride (pvdf) hollow fibers. the operation program included suction and backwash steps whic...

Nowadays, the increase of human population every year results in increasing of water usage and demand. Saen Saep canal is important canal in Bangkok. The main objective of this study is using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model to estimate the Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) on data from 11 sampling sites. The data is obtained from the Department of Drainage and Sewerage, Bangkok Metropolitan Ad...

The oxidation behavior of twenty organic chemicals from four different classes (sugars, benzene derivatives, alcohols and carboxyl acids) were investigated using the official chemical oxygen demand (COD) methods (i.e., permanganate and dichromate methods) and their oxidation levels compared with the theoretical oxygen demand (ThOD) values. In addition, the correlation between the official COD a...

background low-cost anaerobic sequencing batch reactor (asbr), which is widely used for controlling high-organic wastewater, is an effective method to remove chemical oxygen demand (cod). objectives the main objectives was evaluating the feasibility of using asbr in the treatment of synthetic dairy wastewater, determining its removal efficiency, and assessing the effect of temperature on operat...

the aim of this study was the increasing of leachate quality using integrated membrane bioreactor (mbr). the reactor was fed with treated leachate with overall 70-1360 mg/l chemical oxygen demand (cod). the analysis of cod, biochemical oxygen demand (bod5), total suspended solids (tss), and total dissolved solids (tds) were performed in feed and filtrate, whenever the system reached steady stat...
