Chemical Oxygen Demand, or COD. It is the oxidation dose consumed when water samples are treated with certain strong oxidant under certain conditions. It is an indicator of the amount of reducing substances in water. The reductive substances in water include various organics, nitrite, sulfide, ferrous salts, etc. Therefore, chemical oxygen demand (COD) is often used to measure the content of organic matter in water. The higher the chemical oxygen demand, the more heavily polluted the water. This instrument USES a special reagent which contains a compound catalyst, which can accelerate the reaction and has anti-interference effect on chloride ions. After rapid REDOX reaction between water sample and special reagent, trivalent chromium ions are generated and their concentration is determined by spectrophotometry to obtain corresponding COD. The COD rapid tester has been greatly improved in stability, accuracy, range and practicability. It can be used in chemical industry, petroleum, coking, paper making, metallurgy, brewing, medicine and so on. It can be widely used in various industries (industrial waste water, urban sewage, domestic sewage and surface water in rivers and lakes).
