COD measures oxygen needed for chemical oxidation by a strong oxidant, and dissolved oxygen is the oxygen present in water.जैव-रासायनिक ऑक्सीजन माँग (BOD) वह ऑक्सीजन है जिसका उपयोग सूक्ष्मजीव जल में कार्बनिक पदार्थ के अपघटन में करते हैं। COD प्रबल ऑक्सीकारक द्वारा रासायनिक ऑक्सीकरण हेतु आवश्यक ऑक्सीजन मापती है, और घुलित ऑक्सीजन जल में उपस्थित ऑक्सीजन है।More People, Development and Environment questions
