Laboratory tests describing the biological reactivity of pretreated residual wastes
In Austria as well as in Germany, several ideas have been put forward on how to describe the biological activity of waste. Gas-generation potential, respiration activity and analysis of material groups ('Stoffgruppenanalysen' according to Van Soest, 1963) and eluate parameters like TOC, NH4-N, COD and BOD were discussed. The use of the Incubation Test (developed by the Department of Waste ...

What is a Laboratory Incubator?
A laboratory incubator is a heated, insulated box used to grow and maintain microbiological or cell cultures. The laboratory incubator maintains optimal temperature, humidity and gaseous content of the atmosphere inside. Many laboratory incubators include a programmable timer which may be set to cycle through different temperatures and humidity levels. The lab incubators vary in size from ...

What are the differences between Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD)?
Ask the expert: What are the differences between Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD)? Answer: Both COD and BOD test methods aim to give an indication of the amount of pollution in a water sample. COD is the amount of oxygen required to chemically breakdown the pollutants whereas BOD is the amount of oxygen required to do this biologically through micro-organisms. ...
