How is Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) calculated?
Correct Answer: A — Waste water is oxidised chemically using dichromate in acid solutions
Waste water is oxidised chemically using dichromate in acid solutions. High COD value indicates that the presence of inorganic compounds is high. Inorganic compounds get chemically oxidised and this results in the increase of organic compounds in the sample.
