Chemical oxygen demand (COD) Analyzer for Government and Academic Solutions
PeCOD® is the only Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) analysis technology to use the powerful UV-activated nanoparticle TiO2 (titanium dioxide) photocatalyst which is at the core of the system. The high electrochemical potential of the TiO2 gives it a substantial advantage over the modest chemical potential generated by the dichromate method. The UV light creates a photohole in the TiO2 sensor with a very high oxidizing power and organics in the cell are oxidized. PeCOD® is extremely accurate across a broader ...
