Define biological oxygen demand and chemical oxygen demand. Write its environmental impacts.
-Added by Nishant Verma General Knowledge » Our Environment
Answer:
Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) is defined as the amount of DO required to aerobically decompose biodegradable organic matter over a period of 5 days at 20○C.
Chemical oxygen demand (COD) is commonly used to indirectly measure the amount of organic compounds in water.
Increase in BOD and COD values degrades the quality of water. It is harmful to aquatic organisms and causes toxic effects at various levels of food chain.
