Abstract:
The rise in human population densities and the pace of development had intensified the depletion of the water quality. This study aimed to analyze the concentration of dissolved oxygen (DO), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) during wet season and dry season at Terengganu River in 2016. A total of 29 monitoring stations in the study area were selected and three water quality parameters were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the correlation matrix methods. The DO ranged from 2.11 to 8.07 mg L-1, COD from 2.24 to 39 mg L-1 and BOD from 0.67 to 6.52 mg L-1 for the wet season while in dry season, DO ranged from 2.30 to 6.05 mg L-1, COD from 1.9 to 20.48 mg L-1 and BOD from 0.04 to 13.99 mg L-1. Spearman’s correlation test shows there was a weak correlation between DO and COD during wet season, while in the dry season, there was a weak correlation between DO-COD and DO-BOD. This study also found out that urbanization and anthropogenic activities in the area can gave the more impact towards seasons and water quality deterioration in Terengganu River, Malaysia.

Abstract:
<p>Biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) is an important water quality measurement but takes five days or more to obtain. This may result in delays in taking corrective action in water treatment. Our goal was to develop a BOD predictive model that uses other water quality measurements that are quicker than BOD to obtain; namely pH, temperature, nitrogen, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, fecal coliform, and total coliform. Principal component analysis showed that the data spread was in the direction of the BOD eigenvector. The vectors for pH, temperature, and fecal coliform contributed the greatest to data variation, and dissolved oxygen negatively correlated to BOD. K-means clustering suggested three clusters, and t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding showed that BOD had a strong influence on variation in the data. Pearson correlation coefficients indicated that the strongest positive correlations were between BOD, and fecal and total coliform, as well as nitrogen. The largest negative correlation was between dissolved oxygen, and BOD. Multiple linear regression (MLR) using fecal, and total coliform, dissolved oxygen, and nitrogen to predict BOD, and training/test data of 80%/20% and 90%/10% had performance indices of RMSE = 2.21 mg/L, <italic>r</italic> = 0.48 and accuracy of 50.1%, and RMSE = 2.18 mg/L, <italic>r</italic> = 0.54 and an accuracy of 55.5%, respectively. BOD prediction was better than previous MLR models. Increasing the percentage of the training set above 80% improved the model accuracy but did not significantly impact its prediction. Thus, MLR can be used successfully to estimate BOD in water using other water quality measurements that are quicker to obtain.</p>

Abstract:
The study focused on assessing biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) as an indicator of pollution dynamics in the Dnipro River. It was found that the ecological and hydrochemical conditions of the Kremenchuk, Kamyanske, and Dnipro reservoirs and the water quality of drinking water intakes within them had deteriorated due to increasing BOD. In terms of temporal analysis, 2019 marked the year of the most significant changes in BOD concentrations, resulting in a reversal of long-term trends in biochemical oxygen demand distribution from decreasing to increasing for the territory from Vyshhorod to Horishni Plavni. The most significant increase in BOD was observed at the Cherkasy water intake, likely due to increased ammonium input into the water. The area between Vlasivka and Horishni Plavni, situated at the boundary of the low-flow Kremenchuk reservoir and the flowing Kamyanske reservoir, exhibited the highest BOD concentrations among the entire study area, exceeding the maximum permissible concentration in approximately 80% of cases. BOD levels in the water intakes of Kamyanske and Dnipro showed a steady rise from 2015 to 2023, with peak values in August and September. Positive correlations with phosphates and ammonium, and a negative correlation with dissolved oxygen, suggested anthropogenic influences. These findings indicate the accumulation of biogenic elements and increased oxygen demand, particularly during eutrophication events.

Abstract:
- In this study, untreated sewage from five suburban sites in Sironj Tehsil, district- Vidisha, India, was evaluated for seasonal and spatial variations in Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) in 2024. The APHA 5210 B and 5220 D procedures for BOD and COD, respectively, were used to analyse 100 sewage samples from Kahra Bazar, Kathali, Bhawani Nagar, Katra Mohalla, and Hajipur. Due to runoff-driven organic matter, the BOD ranged from 159.16 to 186.96 mg/L, with Bhawani Nagar recording the highest value (186.96 mg/L) during the monsoon season (mean 180.98 mg/L). Bhawani Nagar had the highest COD (571.32 mg/L), which ranged from 337.15 to 571.32 mg/L and peaked during the monsoon (mean 511.21 mg/L). The seasons with the lowest BOD (mean 161.35 mg/L) and COD (mean 358.09 mg/L) were winter. Statistical analysis showed site-specific influences on COD (F(4,80)=8.63, p<0.001) and significant seasonal effects on both BOD (F(3,80)=36.90, p<0.001) and COD (F(3,80)=114.14, p<0.001). According to these results, there are moderate to high levels of organic pollution, which means that to prevent oxygen depletion during monsoon peaks, biological treatment with increased aeration is required. These findings support the need for customised wastewater management plans in Sironj and are consistent with those of similar Indian cities.

Abstract:
Predicting the adsorption performance to remove organic pollutants from wastewater is an essential environmental-related topic, requiring knowledge of various statistical tools and artificial intelligence techniques. Hence, this study is the first to develop a quadratic regression model and artificial neural network (ANN) for predicting biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) removal under different adsorption conditions. Nanozero-valent iron encapsulated into cellulose acetate (CA/nZVI) was synthesized, characterized by XRD, SEM, and EDS, and used as an efficient adsorbent for BOD reduction. Results indicated that the medium pH and adsorption time should be adjusted around 7 and 30 min, respectively, to maintain the highest BOD removal efficiency of 96.4% at initial BOD concentration C o = 100 mg/L, mixing rate = 200 rpm, and adsorbent dosage of 3 g/L. An optimized ANN structure of 5–10–1, with the “trainlm” back-propagation learning algorithm, achieved the highest predictive performance for BOD removal ( R 2 : 0.972, Adj- R 2 : 0.971, RMSE: 1.449, and SSE: 56.680). Based on the ANN sensitivity analysis, the relative importance of the adsorption factors could be arranged as pH > adsorbent dosage > time ≈ stirring speed > C o . A quadratic regression model was developed to visualize the impacts of adsorption factors on the BOD removal efficiency, optimizing pH at 7.3 and time at 46.2 min. The accuracy of the quadratic regression and ANN models in predicting BOD removal was approximately comparable. Hence, these computational-based methods could further maximize the performance of CA/nZVI material for removing BOD from wastewater under different adsorption conditions. The applicability of these modeling techniques would guide the stakeholders and industrial sector to overcome the nonlinearity and complexity issues related to the adsorption process.

A methodology for reflecting stochastic considerations in an optimization model is presented. The technique, which uses chance-constrained programming, is applied to a water quality management problem wherein concern is with the interaction between biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and the dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration in a river. The uncertainty in the problem is considered to be embodied in transfer coefficients for which a lognormal distribution is derived from moment estimates provided by first-order uncertainty analysis. The appropriateness of the lognormal distribution is confirmed by results from a simulation modelling exercise. Key words: water quality, optimization, uncertainty, mathematical modelling.

Abstract:
The textile industry, especially Indonesia, has made significant contributions to economic progress; yet, its production process frequently causes harm to the environment. An issue that occurs is the presence of wastewater generated during batik manufacturing, which has elevated concentrations of pollutants such as COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand) and BOD (Biochemical Oxygen Demand). This study investigates the utilization of water hyacinth plants for phytoremediation as a viable approach to manage batik liquid waste. The investigation was conducted using time intervals of 0, 3, 6, 9, and 12 days. The investigation encompasses the reduction in Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), and the impact of pH. The study findings demonstrate that the most significant reduction in BOD was observed on the sixth day, with a value of 25.52 mg/L achieved from an initial concentration of 86.38 mg/L. The TDS decrease achieved a level of 526 ppm. This research demonstrates the high efficacy of the phytoremediation approach in absorbing wastewater.

Abstract:
One of the main indices of the quality of water is the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD). A little over 40 years have passed since the practical application of the first microbial sensor for the determination of BOD, presented by the Japanese professor Isao Karube. This time span has brought new knowledge to and practical developments in the use of a wide range of microbial cells based on BOD biosensors. At present, this field of biotechnology is becoming an independent discipline. The traditional BOD analysis (BOD5) has not changed over many years; it takes no less than 5 days to carry out. Microbial biosensors can be used as an alternative technique for assessing the BOD attract attention because they can reduce hundredfold the time required to measure it. The review examines the experience of the creation and practical application of BOD biosensors accumulated by the international community. Special attention is paid to the use of multiple cell immobilization methods, signal registration techniques, mediators and cell consortia contained in the bioreceptor. We consider the use of nanomaterials in the modification of analytical devices developed for BOD evaluation and discuss the prospects of developing new practically important biosensor models.

Abstract:
In this descriptive-analytical study, nitrogenous and algal oxygen demand were assessed for effluent from a system of facultative partially mixed lagoons followed by the polishing pond using 120 grab samples over 1 year. Filtered and non-filtered samples of polishing pond effluent were tested in the presence and absence of a nitrification inhibitor. Effective factors, including 5-day biochemical and chemical oxygen demand (BOD and COD), total suspended solids (TSS), dissolved oxygen, chlorophyll A, and temperature, were measured using standard methods for water and wastewater tests. The results were analyzed using repeated measures analysis of variance with SPSS version 16. Findings show that the annual mean of the total 5-day BOD in the effluent from the polishing pond consisted of 44.92% as the algal carbonaceous biochemical oxygen demand (CBOD), 43.61% as the nitrogenous biochemical oxygen demand (NBOD), and 11.47% as the soluble CBOD. According to this study, the annual mean ratios of algal COD and 5-day algal CBOD to TSS were 0.8 and 0.37, respectively. As the results demonstrate, undertaking quality evaluation of the final effluent from the lagoons without considering nitrogenous and algal oxygen demand would undermine effluent quality assessment and interpretation of the performance of the wastewater treatment plant.

Abstract:
This study presents a water treatment process by using a down-flow fixed bed activated carbon contractor model. Two types of activated carbon (AC) used, powder and granular activated carbon from date pits as a raw material, the parameters tested are biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total suspended solid (TSS), total dissolved solid (TDS) and pH. The column diameter and bed depths are made constant, whereas the size of activated carbon is varies. The obtained removal efficiencies for sample of river water are 39.8% of BOD, 41.8% of COD, 81.8% of TSS and 67.7% of TDS for granular AC. For powdered AC the removal efficiencies of parameters are 34.7% of BOD, 17.6% of COD, 72.7% of TSS and 50% of TDS. The granular AC made from date pits is the best activated carbon because of low cost of raw material and it is widely applied for usage in the water or wastewater treatment, as it is very effective in terms of cost and performance to cater the increasing demand of clean water.

The response trends of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and organic strength after the chlorination/dechlorination process were explored through a 2-year, 5-month chemically enhanced primary treatment (CEPT) effluent onsite monitoring program and a 2-month laboratory-scale study. The monitoring results showed that better instantaneous mixing at the chlorine injection point reduced the effect of chlorination/dechlorination on the 5-day BOD levels. The laboratory study results demonstrated that chlorination did not change the particle size distribution, dissolved organic carbon, or chemical oxygen demand of the organic content of the effluent. Nevertheless, chlorination/dechlorination strongly affected the BOD measurement when nitrification was inhibited by changing bioactivity/biodegradation rates.

Abstract:
Water samples were collected from Mini Whou Stream and analyzed for gross organic pollutants and the results was used to evaluate the organic strength of the Stream. The gross organic pollutants studied were dissolved oxygen (DO), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD). Dissolved oxygen within the months studied ranged from 5.45±0.15-5.58±0.14mg/L, which were lower than the WHO value for drinking water. Biochemical oxygen demand within the months studied ranged from 36.25±4.47-36.55±3.88mg/L, which was higher than the recommended level for drinking water by WHO. Chemical oxygen within the months studied ranged from 51.82±3.25 – 52.57 mg/L which was above the WHO acceptable level. The organic strength (BOD/COD) of the surface water during the months ranged from 0.69–0.70. The results recorded revealed that the stream was polluted with gross organic pollutants and is therefore not fit for human consumption. The values recorded for organic strength indicated that microbial breakdown of organic matter was very active, which showed that the water of the stream was contaminated with organic pollutants. This should therefore discourage input of organic matter from diffuse sources into the stream.

Abstract:
Aim: The aim of study was to investigate the Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) levels in water samples from the Oka Creek. Study Design: Qualitative study design. Place and Duration of Study: Water samples were collected from the Oka Creek, located in Toru-Orua in Sagbama Local Government Area, Bayelsa State, Nigeria. The study lasted for twenty days. Methods: Water samples were collected from four different locations and depths in the Oka Creek, Toru-Orua, Sagbama Local Government Area of Bayelsa State, Nigeria, at various times. Each sample was transferred into 250 ml bottles labeled L1, L2, L3, and L4. The temperatures of the samples were recorded before transporting them to the chemistry laboratory for treatment. Winkler titration method was employed in analyzing the samples. Results: Location L1 recorded the highest BOD value, 28.38 ppm, measured at sunset (25 °C), from a relatively stagnant region. The high BOD at this location is attributed to minimal photosynthetic activity and significant oxygen consumption by microorganisms. In contrast, L2, collected from the same region at 35 °C during peak sunlight, exhibited a BOD value of 21.76 ppm. The lower BOD at L2 is due to increased photosynthetic activity. These high values suggest significant sludge deposits, domestic sewage and agricultural runoffs, which could lead to oxygen depletion and negatively impact aquatic life. Sample L3, taken from a deeper, stagnant region at sunset (25 °C), recorded a BOD value of 4.50 ppm. This moderate BOD level suggests the presence of moderate sludge deposits and agricultural runoff, but higher water flow speed helped mitigate these effects. Location L4, with the lowest BOD value of 3.74 ppm, was collected during peak sunlight (35 °C). Deeper location and high water flow speed contributed to reduced BOD levels, indicating better water quality and a healthier aquatic environment. Conclusion: The BOD values at L1 and L2 (28.38 ppm and 21.76 ppm) exceed acceptable limits for fish growth. Conversely, BOD values at L3 and L4 (4.50 ppm and 3.74 ppm) fall within acceptable limits, suggesting healthier aquatic environment, as evidenced by the yearly bountiful fish harvests in these sections of the Oka Creek.

Abstract:
Aloe vera is a plant with complex composition of carbohydrates, sugars, and mucilage, enabling it to bind particles in water and serve as a coagulant in the coagulation-flocculation process. This study aims to assess the impact of varying doses and rapid stirring times on the reduction of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), and total suspended solids (TSS) levels in liquid waste from pharmaceutical companies. The research involves two factors: (1) aloe vera concentration at three levels (20 mL/L, 40 mL/L, and 60 mL/L); (2) fast mixing time at three levels (20 minutes, 40 minutes, and 60 minutes), with each treatment repeated thrice. Levels of BOD, COD and TSS were measured post-treatment using a jar test tool. The results of the analysis showed that the optimal efficacy of the aloe vera coagulant occurred at a concentration of 40 mL/L for 40 minutes. At this optimal condition, the effectiveness of the aloe vera coagulant in reducing BOD, COD and TSS levels was 72.3%, 78.5%, and 65.3%, respectively. This indicates that the aloe vera coagulant can be effectively utilized in the treatment of pharmaceutical industrial wastewater to reduce BOD, COD and TSS levels

The degradation of organic compounds was analysed by chemical oxygen demand (COD), total organic carbon (TOC) and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD). The optimal degradation conditions were at pH 7 with ozone, UV radiation and hydrogen peroxide addition. The transfer of ozone increased significantly, thus resulting in decreased treatment time compared to ozone treatment alone. The reductions of COD, TOC and BOD were 46%, 32% and 70%, respectively.

Abstract:
The use of waste to reduce pollution has been advocated by many researchers. In this study five samples of physically prepared fluted pumpkin seed shell activated carbons (PFACs) prepared elsewhere were successfully used in reducing Biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) of vegetable oil industry effluents (VOIE). BOD readings of effluent were measured using the Lovibon BOD IR Sensomat while COD was determined by use of PCcheckit COD Vario (Lovibond) consisting of PCcheckit COD Vario photometer and COD reactor ET 108 model. Batch adsorption had better performance (BOD and COD removal of 52 % to 83 %) over column adsorption (BOD5 and COD removal of 35 % to 86 %). Batch adsorption gave better BOD and COD reduction. Though BOD and COD removal varied widely with carbon dose, pH, temperature and contact time the effects of theses factors investigated in the reduction of BOD and COD were complex and difficult to streamlined.

Abstract:
Pond is one place that is used as a place to cultivate fish, shrimp, and other aquatic animals that can live in brackish water. Changes in water quality upstream and downstream of the pond due to pollutants may affect the ecological balance of waters. Pollutants can be determined by two simple parameters, the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD). While the ability to break down pollutants (biodegradability) can be determined using the ratio of BOD/COD. BOD analysis using the Winkler titration method, whereas the COD analysis using titrimetric method. The value of BOD, COD, and the ratio of BOD/COD in the upstream area is 28.00 mg/L, 60.00 mg/L, and 0,467 respectively. While the value of BOD, COD, and the ratio of BOD/COD in the downstream area is 20.00 mg/L, 43.00 mg/L, and 0.465 respectively. Ratio BOD/COD obtained show that the organic pollutants in the pond is biodegradable.

Abstract:
The increase in community activities causes the amount of wastewater to increase. This wastewater comes from industrial production processes and from the community activities which are domestic wastewater. Domestic wastewater must be treated before being discharged to water sources because it contains pathogenic organisms. The place for treating domestic wastewater is Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP). The main purpose of WWTP is to degrade the Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) and pathogenic organisms. This study develops a multi-objective optimization mathematical model for reducing the BOD load in the WWTP. This optimization model has three objective functions, namely maximizing the BOD load that is treated in the pond minimizing the difference between the BOD reduction efficiency value in the WWTP with the reference efficiency value and minimizing the power used by the aerator. The simulation results show that the maximum BOD load that can be treated in facultative ponds I and II is 1,589.688 Kg/day while for facultative ponds III and IV is 1,727.158 Kg/day. The efficiency value of reducing BOD load is influenced by the residence time variable, where the efficiency value of reducing the BOD load for facultative ponds I and II by 54% while for facultative ponds III and IV by 57%. The power used by the aerator is influenced by the treated BOD load variable, the aerator power in facultative ponds I and II is 49.67775 Kwh while in facultative ponds III and IV it is 53.97369 Kwh.

Abstract:
To simulate the variation of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) in the tidal Foshan River, inverse calculations based on time domain are applied to the longitudinal dispersion coefficient (E(x)) and BOD decay rate (K(x)) in the BOD model for the tidal Foshan River. The derivatives of the inverse calculation have been respectively established on the basis of different flow directions in the tidal river. The results of this paper indicate that the calculated values of BOD based on the inverse calculation developed for the tidal Foshan River match the measured ones well. According to the calibration and verification of the inversely calculated BOD models, K(x) is more sensitive to the models than E(x) and different data sets of E(x) and K(x) hardly affect the precision of the models.

Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) is an important factor used to measure water pollution. This article reviews recent developments of microbial biosensors with respect to their applications for low BOD estimation. Four main methods to measure BOD using a biosensor are described: microbial fuel cells, optical methods, oxygen electrode based methods and mediator-based methods. Each of them is based on different principles, thus a different approach is required to improve the limit of detection. A proper choice of microorganisms used in the biosensor construction and/or sample pre-treatment processes is also essential to improve the BOD lower detection limit.

Abstract:
Water quality planning relies on Biochemical Oxygen Demand BOD. BOD testing takes five days. The Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is increasingly used for water resource forecasting. This work designed a PSO technique for estimating everyday BOD at Al-Rustumiya wastewater treatment facility inlet. Al-Rustumiya wastewater treatment plant provided 702 plant-scale data sets during 2012-2022. The PSO model uses the daily data of the water quality parameters, including chemical oxygen demand (COD), chloride (Cl-), suspended solid (SS), total dissolved solids (TDS), and pH, to determine how each variable affects the daily incoming BOD. PSO and multiple linear regression (MLR) findings are compared, and their performance is evaluated using mean square error, relative absolute mistake, and coefficient of determination. PSO utilised COD, TDS, SS, pH, and Cl- as inputs, generating a mean square error of 1029.10, an average absolute relative error of 9.41%, and a coefficient of determination of 0.89. Comparisons demonstrated that the PSO model could accurately calculate the daily BOD at Al-Rustumiya wastewater treatment plant's inlet.

Abstract:
Improperly managed wastewater effluent poses environmental and public health risks. BOD evaluation is complicated by wastewater treatment. Using key parameters to estimate BOD in wastewater can improve wastewater management and environmental monitoring. This study proposes a BOD determination method based on the Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) model to combine Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), Suspended Solids (SS), Total Nitrogen (T-N), Ammonia Nitrogen (NH4-N), and Total Phosphorous (T-P) concentrations in wastewater. Twelve different transfer functions are investigated, including the common Hyperbolic Tangent Sigmoid (HTS), Log-sigmoid (LS), and Linear (Li) functions. This research evaluated 576,000 ANN models while considering the variable random number generator due to the ten alternative ANN configuration parameters. This study proposes a new approach to assessing water resources and wastewater facility performance. It also demonstrates ANN’s environmental and educational applications. Based on their RMSE index over the testing datasets and their configuration parameters, twenty ANN architectures are ranked. A BOD prediction equation written in Excel makes testing and applying in real-world applications easier. The developed and proposed ANN-LM 5-8-1 model depicting almost ideal performance metrics proved to be a reliable and helpful tool for scientists, researchers, engineers, and practitioners in water system monitoring and the design phase of wastewater treatment plants.

This research shows efficiency of constructed wetlands (CWs) to purify waste water in the case of Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD). CWs such as surface flow (SF), subsurface flow (SSF), and hybrid (HYB) systems have been compared to provide an analysis about which system has better performance for BOD removal efficiency. Data were collected from different scientific articles and from all over the world. Meta-analysis technique was employed to aggregate data from scientific sources, facilitating hypothesis testing, and comparisons between different types of CWs. All the systems of CWs show satisfactory removal efficiency. HYB systems are shown to be the most efficient. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) has been applied to analyze differences between respective CWs using R software. It shows that there is a statistically significant difference between different types of CWs. Post-hoc Tukey?s Honestly Significant Different (HSD) analysis demonstrates a statistically significant difference between SF and HYB systems in the case of BOD removal efficiency. Also, Post-hoc Tukey?s HSD shows statistically significant difference between SSF and SF CWs. On the other hand, Post-hoc Tukey?s HSD does not show statistically significant difference between HYB and SSF CWs. The significant reduction rates for BOD removal efficiency, demonstrates that CWs can be used to diminish this kind of pollution.

Abstract:
High biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) concentrations in water minimize oxygen availability, damage ecosystem biodiversity, impair water quality, and spoil freshwater. The increased level of BOD is an indication of severe organic pollution of freshwater. Thus, this study aims to establish empirical correlations between the 5-day biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5) and organic decomposition time to control organic pollution in various wastewater effluents. Ultimate biochemical oxygen demand (UBOD) and minimum and average BODt data sets along with their reaction rates were collected from earlier sampling analyses in the plants used for industrial, domestic (sanitary), and storm (surface) wastewater treatment. Average BOD5/COD ratios were then utilized to calculate existing 5-day dissolved oxygen (DO5) concentration for the estimation of experimental dilution factors (dfs) as a good start in sampling analysis to reach an optimum DO5 concentration. Moreover, the relationships between average BOD5 vs. COD, and BOD5 vs. DO5, were obtained based on the literature with 60–70% oxygen consumption rates required for organic decomposition. Results showed that such BOD5 relationships with time (power equations) or with COD (linear correlations) are helpful for wastewater engineers to generate valuable and accurate results for quality control, without the need to conduct laboratory experiments. The proposed regression equations would facilitate effluent quality assessment, allowing selection of optimal processes to control microbiological contamination or organic constituents in wastewaters.

The increase in the amount of palm oil production impacts increasing the total liquid waste from the processing of palm oil. Palm oil mill effluent (POME) has high chemical oxygen demand (COD) and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) parameters that can cause environmental pollution. This study processed POME using the Fenton mechanism using reagents derived from scrap iron. The Fenton mechanism is one of the advanced oxidation process technology (AOPs) in wastewater treatment. To improve the performance of the Fenton mechanism, the researchers integrated it with UV-rays in the photo-Fenton mechanism scheme. Fenton and photo-Fenton processes effectively reduce the pH, BOD, and COD of POME. The COD removal efficiency was 99.91%, while the BOD removal efficiency was 99.93%. The more FeSO4 added to the wastewater, the more significant the reduction of BOD and COD in the Fenton and photo-Fenton processes. Also, photo-Fenton is more effective than the Fenton process to reduce BOD and COD in the POME.Keywords: POME; Fenton; Photo-Fenton; Scrap ironABSTRAKPemanfaatan Besi Bekas untuk Pengolahan Limbah Cair Industri Kelapa Sawit Melalui Proses Fenton dan Foto-FentonMeningkatnya jumlah produksi kelapa sawit, berdampak pada peningkatan total limbah cair dari hasil pengolahan kelapa sawit.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract The Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) is a widely adopted aerobic treatment technology for municipal and industrial wastewater. As a variant of the activated sludge process, SBR operates in time-sequenced steps within a single or multiple tanks. These tanks can function as either plug flow or completely mixed reactors, receiving raw wastewater (influent) at one end and discharging treated effluent at the other. In multi-tank configurations, while one tank undergoes settling and decanting, the other fills and aerates, ensuring continuous treatment. Some designs incorporate a bio-selector—comprised of a series of baffles or walls—that directs the flow in a zigzag pattern. This enhances mixing of incoming influent with returned activated sludge (RAS), initiating biological digestion early in the treatment cycle. SBR systems treat wastewater in discrete batches, including sewage and effluent from anaerobic digesters or mechanical biological treatment plants. Oxygen is introduced into the tank to stimulate microbial activity, which breaks down organic matter, measured by reductions in Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD). The treated effluent is often clean enough for safe discharge into surface water bodies or, in some cases, for reuse on land. Key Words: Sequential Batch Reactor (SBR), Wastewater Treatment, Activated Sludge Process, Aerobic Treatment, Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD).

Abstract:
This study evaluates the water quality of the Cikapundung River based on upstream, midstream, and downstream characteristics using a comparative approach. The water quality data include parameters such as dissolved oxygen (DO), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total suspended solids (TSS), and total dissolved solids (TDS). The analysis revealed that DO, BOD, COD, and TSS parameters in certain river segments did not meet the surface water quality standards set forth in Government Regulation No. 22 of 2021, Class II. The high pollution levels were mainly attributed to domestic, industrial and other human activities. This study provides important insights into the water quality conditions of the Cikapundung River and their implications for environmental management in the region.

Abstract:
Predictive model on the rate of biochemical and chemical oxygen demand concentration diffusion in a stagnant water environment was investigated in this paper. The mathematical model was formulated based on the basic principle of mass and momentum concept which was resolved to obtain an ordinary differential equation. A mathematical tool known as the least square method was applied to resolve the differential equation to a quadratic equation.&nbsp; The samples collected were analyzed to predictive the model on the rate of biochemical and chemical oxygen demand concentration diffusion in a stagnant water environment as presented in this paper. Experimental data obtained from the analysis were fitted into the model to obtain their diffusivities and velocities of the parameters upon the influence of contaminants. Concentrations of the BOD and COD at the various depths were simulated and the polynomial of the curve was also established to ascertain the validity of the developed model. Simulated results from the model were compared analytically and graphically with the experimental and validated result as presented in the work. The results obtained show a reasonable level of agreement which is an indication of the reliability of the developed model for predicting the diffusion of BOD and COD in a stagnant water environment.

Abstract:
The use of an electrolytic respirometer for characterization of chemical compounds and wastewater was studied. From the BOD curves generated by the respirometer, the first order biokinetic constant (K), ultimate BOD (BODu) and adaptation period were estimated. The estimated ultimate BOD values of the known chemical compounds were very close to the theoretical oxygen demand values. Using K values, the relative biodegradability of the chemicals could be compared while the adaptation period for each compound could vary with the type of seed micro-organisms used. It was found that BOD5 values determined by the conventional method have no or very little, if any, meaning as far as the biological characteristics of industrial wastewaters are concerned. The BOD curves for wastewaters consisting of 2 or 3 different compounds could be divided into several stages while those for the combined wastewaters could be expressed as one curve.

Abstract:
Wastewater treatment in Chicken Slaughterhouse is absolutely necessary because it has a very positive impact on environmental preservation and helps remove pathogenic organisms in wastewater before being discharged into the environment. Currently, wastewater treatment still uses chlorine as a disinfectant. However, chlorine has a bad effect on the environment, the purpose of this research is to use an alternative organic material that functions as a disinfectant as coconut shell liquid smoke. This study also observe the effect of using liquid smoke on the value of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) on the output of wastewater.. This experimental research method uses a chemical method by taking samples of wastewater and adding two different doses of liquid smoke and testing for BOD and COD values. With a dose of 0.5% can reduce the COD value by 35% but increase the BOD value by 234%, and a dose of 1% it increases the BOD value by 195% and increases the COD value by 170%. This will allow for further research with the appropriate dosage to understand its relationship to water quality and its connection to environmental sustainability.

Abstract:
The present study explores the feasibility of biogas production from dairy wastewater in the UAF reactor with simultaneous wastewater treatment. The study was carried out at different hydraulic retention times (8h, 12h, 16h, 24h). Two different media such as pebble stone media and aggregate media were used as the packed media. The maximum COD removal efficiency of 91.55 % is achieved at the hydraulic retention time of 24 Hours with an organic loading rate of 1.35 kg/m3 /d for aggregate media, whereas for pebble stone media a maximum COD removal efficiency of 76.32 % is achieved. Before the start of the experiments, the COD/BOD ratio is fixed to 1.4 with initial COD and BOD of 1350 mg/L and 960 mg/L. So, from the results it is concluded that the Upflow Anaerobic Filter (UAF) Reactor can be used as a one of the best treatment methods for the diary wastewater treatment.

Abstract:
This study is aimed at assessing the physico-chemical parameters of water from the Iwofe River which is heavily stressed by extensive anthropogenic activities like bunkering. Two stations were established and surface water samples were collected bi-monthly at each station for one year. All the parameters were determined in-situ except biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) which was analyzed in the laboratory on the fifth day of sample collection. The results obtained show that pH varied from 5.66 and 6.87, dissolved oxygen (DO) ranged between 3.51 and 5.16 mg/l. Temperature had values ranging between 27.85 and 31.25 oC; salinity ranged between 5.96 and 11.54 ppt; conductivity ranged between 9.55 and 10.46 us/cm. The total dissolved solid (TDS) ranged between 7.15 and 13.63 mg/l and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) was between 0.85 and 2.84 mg/l. Seasonal fluctuations revealed that mean values of DO, TDS, salinity and temperature were higher during the dry season while pH and BOD were higher in the wet season, but mean conductivity values were uniform for both seasons. The study has shown that despite the visible anthropogenic perturbations in the study area, the surface water is still relatively clean.

Abstract:
In this study, we developed a simple strategy to prepare a biofilm reactor (BFR) sensor for the universal biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) determination. The microorganisms in fresh water were domesticated by artificial seawater with different salinity gradients successively to prepare the BFR sensor. The prepared BFR sensor exhibits an efficient ability to degrade a variety of organic substances. The linear range of BOD determination by the BFR sensor is 1.0–10.0 mg/L−1 with a correlation coefficient of 0.9951. The detection limit is 0.30 mg/L according to three times of signal-to-noise ratio. What is more, the BFR sensor displayed excellent performances for the BOD determination of different water samples, including both fresh water and seawater. The 16S-rRNA gene sequencing technology was used to analyze the microbial species before and after the domestication. The results show that it is a general approach for the rapid BOD determination in different water samples.
