Wastewater

From inflow to outflow, we have everything under control.

Technology that takes your testing beyond the standard.

Wastewater is water used for domestic, industrial, or agricultural activities that, due to human activity, may contain organic or inorganic substances that are potentially harmful to health and the environment. This wastewater must be monitored and treated before being reintroduced into the environment (into the soil, rivers, lakes, or seas) to avoid endangering the normal balance of the ecosystem.

Wastewater discharged into local water supply systems, including sewers, must comply with the wastewater control standards established by the government. It is important to test several parameters to ensure public safety and prevent damage to wastewater treatment processes and the environment.

The main parameter analyzed to assess the content of biodegradable organic matter is COD (chemical oxygen demand), which is often supplemented by BOD (biochemical oxygen demand).

COD

Chemical oxygen demand (COD) is an important metric for waste treatment in all sectors, from municipal systems to food production waste streams.

Proper COD testing is important for determining the effectiveness of wastewater treatment and can help diagnose treatment problems. The COD method is also used in power plants, the chemical industry, the paper industry, laundries, environmental studies, and general education. The efficiency of the treatment process is usually expressed as the percentage of oxidizable substances removed during the cycle.

In water treatment plants, the COD value must be less than 10 mg/L O2 at the end of the treatment cycle.

COD - Chemical Oxygen Demand

Digestion heating block / COD reactor

HI839800
Thermal heating block for cuvettes


COD testing requires digestion, so a heating block for your samples is crucial for accurate and repeatable results. For best results, choose a heating block that offers multiple temperatures so you can also perform other tests, such as total phosphorus. Most heating blocks also have timers, which are critical for maintaining digestion times across multiple runs. For added safety, look for models that optionally come with a protective shield to cover the heating block in case of an accident.
The HI839800 COD Test Tube Heater is an easy-to-use thermoreactor made from durable materials. The aluminum block has a capacity of 25 test tubes and a recess for a reference temperature probe.
The clearly labeled user interface allows for intuitive operation. It features two arrows for setting the integrated timer and a temperature button with two preset temperature settings: 150ºC and 105ºC. Other features include status indicators, a thermal cutout to protect against overheating, and a continuous LCD display.

Das HI97105 ist für die genaue Bestimmung von pH-Wert, Alkalinität, Kalzium, Nitrat, Nitrit und Phosphat in meeresbiologischen Anwendungen konzipiert.

COD Pre - prepared reagents

Reagents are one of the most important components of the COD test system. These chemicals are responsible for the oxidation of organic matter. These COD vials are premixed and ready to use.

Several types of reagents are commercially available:

  • EPA-compliant reagents: These vials comply with EPA Method 410.4 and Standard Method 5220D. These reagents use the method formulation, which contains mercuric sulfate, potassium dichromate, and sulfuric acid. Choose these vials if your work requires you to report COD results to an agency that requires EPA methods.
  • ISO-compliant reagents: Their composition conforms to the methods of ISO 15705:2002. The composition of these COD vials is similar to EPA standards, so they also contain mercury.
  • Mercury-free reagents: Most COD vials contain mercury sulfate to eliminate chloride interference that would otherwise produce a falsely high COD value. COD-free vials do not contain mercury, which makes them more susceptible to chloride interference but significantly reduces the safety and environmental risks associated with handling mercury. Therefore, these reagents are ideal for routine analyses where no or very low chloride concentrations are expected.

The HI98 series portable meters offer a robust solution for obtaining laboratory-quality results on-site. A wide range of models for single- and multi-parameter measurements means you can find a meter suitable for use in any space.
