Les abréviations anglaise «BOD» et française «DBO» sont employées généralement de préférence aux expressions complètes correspondantes; c'est sans doute pourquoi l'expression "élimination de la demande biochimique en oxygène" n'apparaît dans aucun des documents consultés. Toutefois, une telle occurrence étant toujours possible, j'ai pris la liberté de l'ajouter comme synonyme. 5, record 1, French, - %C3%A9limination%20de%20la%20DBO
