The compact, reliable, cloud-enabled solution for BOD determination and aerobic respirometric tests.

VELP designs and manufactures advanced solutions for respirometric studies. We strive to provide precise and reliable solutions for laboratories working in water and wastewater quality control, biological waste treatment plants, renewable energy production and all environmental laboratories dedicated to the study of the effects that plastics and other pollutants have on water and soil.

The BOD Sensor system is designed for laboratories working with BOD application only and comes in different configurations for every lab requirement. 

VELP RESPIROMETRIC Sensor is able to perform any kind of respirometric studies thanks to its powerful pressure sensor suitable for both aerobic and anaerobic analysis.

AEROBIC RESPIRATION TEST 

  • Biochemical Oxygen Demand – BOD  
  • Assessment of the effects of disinfection on BOD determination
  • Biodegradation of Monomers
  • Biodegradability of plastic materials in an aqueous medium.
  • Soil respiration

ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION TEST 

  • Biochemical Methane Potential – BMP
  • Denitrification analysis

Biochemical Oxygen Determination BOD

Biochemical Oxygen Determination BOD

The VELP RESPIROMETRIC Sensor BOD is designed to provide a smart and cloud-enabled solution to laboratories of water and wastewater quality control.

BOD (Biochemical Oxygen Demand) Determination is a simple and easy way for monitoring the microorganisms’ activity in water samples with extremely reliable results.

In particular, microorganisms present or inoculated in a water sample containing biodegradable organic substance, consume oxygen for their metabolic activity and produce a corresponding volume of carbon dioxide.

The carbon dioxide gets absorbed by a strong alkali positioned in the neck of the bottle. The result of this process is a decrease in gas pressure. The BOD measures this change in gas pressure between the beginning to the end of the analysis and gives a result expressed in mg/l .
