Measurement of Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) |
Analyzes the amount of oxygen required to oxidize organic matter in water samples, indicating the level of organic pollution. |
Improved Efficiency over Traditional Methods |
Provides faster and more automated analysis compared to traditional titrimetric methods. |
Types of COD Analyzers |
Combustion-Based COD Analyzers |
Oxidize organic matter at high temperatures, converting it to carbon dioxide. The amount of oxygen consumed is then measured to determine COD. |
Titrimetric COD Analyzers (Automated) |
Similar to the traditional method, but automated for faster and more precise analysis. Uses a titrant to determine the amount of oxygen required to oxidize organic matter. |
Online COD Analyzers (Continuous Monitoring) |
Continuously monitor COD levels in wastewater streams, ideal for industrial process control and environmental monitoring. |
