Laboratory Testing for BOD and CBOD - The Book on BODs

This 120 page manual on BOD testing, written by Perry Brake of the Washington Department of Ecology, and Mike Raynovic of NCL, gives valuable insights into troubleshooting BOD blanks, and GGA's, as well as the equipment involved.

Chapters on sampling, pretreatment, probe calibrations, dilution water, alternate procedures, correlation of BOD with other parameters, equipment, bench sheets, statistical considerations, and tips for troubleshooting.

Over two years in the making, this work explains many of the so-called mysteries and corrects many of the common misconceptions and "old-wives tales" about this test. A systematic approach is presented for correcting dilution water blank problems, and GGA imprecision and bias, and a "BOD Checksheet" is provided to help the end-user assure that nothing has been missed.

Although we try our best to help everyone who calls, there is no way we can spend 6 hours on the telephone, going over all the possibilities with each caller. We have made the price cheap enough so that NONE of you has an excuse not to buy one!

The most comprehensive work we have seen on this subject, and written in plain English to be understandable for the average person.
