Abstract
Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) play important role in determining the quality of wastewater. Hence it is necessary to calculate COD and BOD of water before setting up of wastewater treatment plant. Algae has been used for decades for various purposes. It is one of the important characteristics is to nitrogen, phosphorus etc., which are harmful for drinking and other purposes but they act as food for algae. Thus in this study COD and BOD analysis is done for sterilized and non-sterilized wastewater after and before treating it with algae in inverse fluidization under aerobic condition, for different time interval and found that percentage reduction in COD and BOD for sterilized wastewater gives greater value than non-sterilized water the reason for this difference being the decrease in the competition between algae and other micro-organism which are present in raw wastewater. And COD % reduction is 65-70 % and BOD % reduction is 68.75- 70.5%
