COD Reduction

COD Reduction

COD, or Chemical Oxygen Demand, is a measure of the amount of organic compounds present in wastewater. It shows how much oxygen would be needed to break down these organic materials. High COD levels mean the water contains a lot of pollutants, especially from industries like pharmaceuticals, chemicals, food processing, and many others.

COD usually comes from dissolved organic matter like solvents, oils, alcohols, sugars, or other industrial compounds. If this water is discharged without treatment, it harms the environment and aquatic life and fails to meet pollution control standards.
