• Definitions:
• biological oxygen demand
• Beginning Of Data. Electronic or magnetic sign, a part of the low-level format on tape. BOD signals the start of data.
• Biochemical Oxygen Demand. A measure of the amount of oxygen required to neutralize organic wastes.
• Biochemical Oxygen Demand - the rate at which microorganisms use the oxygen in water or wastewater while stabilizing decomposable organic matter under aerobic conditions. In decomposition, organic matter serves as food for the bacteria and energy results from this oxidation.

• (biological oxygen demand) is a measure of the amount of oxygen needed by micro-organisms to break down solids and other readily degradable organic matter present in effluent in 7 days.
• The amount of oxygen used when organic matter undergoes decomposition by microorganisms.Testing for BOD is done to assess the amount of organic matter in water.
• A measure of the oxygen consumed in organic rich water by aerobic microorganisms for metabolic functions.
• A gross measure of wastewater strength. The regional plant uses an accelerated treatment process in which living bacteria, thriving in an oxygen-rich environment, consume material in the wastewater. ...
• laboratory measurement of the amount of oxygen consumed by microorganisms while decomposing organic matter in a product. ...
• Biochemical oxygen demand, the amount of oxygen consumed by bacteria and other microorganisms.
• The quantity of oxygen utilized in the biochemical oxidation of organic matter under standard laboratory procedure in five days at 20° C., expressed in milligrams per liter.

• Biological Oxygen Demand - Rate at which organisms use oxygen in water and wastewater.
• Biological Oxygen Demand. The amount of oxygen consumed by decay and other organic processes in a body of water.
• A measure of the organic material that can be readily oxidized through microbial decomposition, consuming oxygen dissolved in water. BOD is often used to assess the effects of a discharge, especially sewage.
• Biochemical Oxygen Demand. The demand for oxygen by water-borne organisms. Used as an indication of water quality.
• This parameter is an indicator of the impact, on receiving waters, of organic material found in effluents. It measures the amount of dissolved oxygen required by microorganisms to decompose the organic material in the effluent. Aquatic life needs oxygen to survive.
• Biochemical Oxygen Demand. Biochemical oxygen consumption after 5 days. A biological method to determine the content of biodegradable organic matter in water.
• a measure of the oxygen in water required by micro-organisms when breaking down organic matter; an indication of organic pollution of water
• a measure of the quantity of oxygen used by organisms to decompose organic matter, usually measured at the end of a five-day period.
• This is a measurement of the oxygen depletion in a water sample incubated under controlled conditions over a period of time. The aerobic decomposition of organic matter by bacteria in the sample requires oxygen. ...
