Environmental Water Analysis
The challenge with wastewater is to ensure that onsite water treatment facilities remain efficient and up to date to comply with local discharge regulations in a cost-effective way. Wastewater quality is checked through multiple tests including biological oxygen demand (BOD), total suspended solids (TSS), chemical oxygen demand (COD), nitrogen and phosphorus.
