cod test tub

Chemical oxygen demand is a vital test for assessing the quality of effluents and waste waters prior to discharge. The Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) test predicts the oxygen requirement of the effluent and is used for monitoring and control of discharges, and for assessing treatment plant performance. The impact of an effluent or waste water discharge on the receiving water is predicted by its oxygen demand. This is because the removal of oxygen from the natural water reduces its ability to sustain aquatic life. The COD test is therefore performed as routine in laboratories of water utilities and industrial companies.

Aijiren COD Test Tube is small in size and light in weight. It can be tested without any other laboratory equipment and technicians; it only takes 3-5 minutes to test a sample, without additional materials or instruments, and is easy to operate.

Details of Chemical Oxygen Demand Test:

2mL of a water or watse water sample are added to a 16mm glass culture tube containing the digestion reagent and a catalyst. The tube is capped with a polypropylene, PTFE lined cap and heated in a block digester at 150C for 2 hours. The orange Hexavalent chromium is reduced to a greenish trivalent chromium. The analytical range for the spectrophotometric method is 5-150ppm (measured at 420nm).

Aijiren has been engaged in the production of COD test tube with Caps for more than ten years, we have absolutely rich experience and familiar processes to produce COD test tube with cap, and we can guarantee the high quality of COD test tube produced by Aijiren with reasonable price.
