Wastewater Monitoring Made Easy with Lovibond® COD System Solutions

Oct 08 2024

COD, or Chemical Oxygen Demand, is a key parameter in water analysis, particularly in wastewater management. It measures the amount of oxygen consumed by organic and inorganic substances in water, making it crucial for maintaining water quality. Whether for sewage treatment plants or industries discharging wastewater, adhering to COD limits is essential to protect drinking water. Accurate measurement tools are therefore indispensable.

Substances like nitrites, sulfur, benzene compounds, and fecal matter deplete oxygen in water. Without sufficient oxygen, microorganisms cannot effectively break down pollutants, which is vital for biological processes in wastewater treatment plants. Even small wastewater treatment plants must closely monitor COD values, especially at discharge points. Failure to do so can lead to ecological damage in rivers and lakes, and even contaminate drinking water.

Lovibond® offers comprehensive COD measurement solutions, from filter photometers and spectrophotometers to reliable reagents, all from a single source.

For those needing specific COD measuring setups, Lovibond® offers solutions with various photometers, including the MD100, MD110 (with Bluetooth®), MD200, MD600, and MD610 (with Bluetooth®), all designed for precise water analysis with minimal effort. The setups include COD reagents, the corresponding filter photometer and the RD125 thermoreactor.

Lovibond® COD tube tests cover all relevant ranges:

  • VLR: 2.0-60.0 mg/L O2
  • LR: 3-150 mg/L O2
  • LMR: 15-300 mg/L O2
  • MR: 20-1500 mg/L O2
  • HR: 200-15000 mg/L O2

For those requiring automatic barcode recognition using the COD tube tests and a comprehensive laboratory setup, the XD 7000 and XD 7500 spectrophotometers are the ideal choices. These instruments ensure laboratory accuracy and streamline your workflow, making them essential for achieving reliable results.

Our range of Valid Checks includes exceptional standard solutions for COD, designed to ensure your instrument accuracy and streamline operational procedures. Elevate your testing confidence and achieve unparalleled results with Lovibond®.
