Water. Primary issues of concern are biochemical oxygen demand (BOD); chlorinated organic compounds (particularly dioxin), which are often collectively measured as adsorbable organic halides (AOX); chemical oxygen demand (COD); total suspended solids (TSS); and aquatic toxicity. Reduction of water use in the industry is also a concern, although progress has been made in this area in the past several decades. Elimination of aqueous effluent from the manufacturing process is a goal of the industry worldwide. 2, record 1, English, - liquid%20effluent
