Development of biological treatment system for reduction of COD from textile wastewater
Wastewater from industrial plants such as textile, electroplating and petroleum refineries can contain various substances that tend to increase the chemical oxygen demand (COD) of the wastewater. Various local agencies have placed limits on the allowable levels of COD in industrial wastewater efflue...
