Another method to measure the oxygen demand of wastewater is the total oxygen demand (TOD). A small volume of the sample, about 40 microliters, is injected into oxygen containing carrier gas and passed through a catalyst bed at 900 ° C. The carbon, nitrogen, and many minerals are converted to their oxides by consuming oxygen from the carrier gas. The amount of gaseous oxygen consumed is measured and given as the TOD of the sample in mg oxygen/liter of wastewater. 2, record 3, English, - total%20oxygen%20demand

Demande totale en oxygène : Un autre type d’appareillage permet de déterminer la quantité d’oxygène fixée (à partir d’un mélange d’oxygène et d’un gaz inerte tel que l’azote) dans un four à catalyseur à mousse de platine.
