The ratio within the chemical oxygen demand (COD) and the biological oxygen demand over 5 days (BOD5) indicates the level of biodegradability of a sample. A low ratio COD/BOD5 (less than 2.0 or 2.5) indicates a high biodegradability, what means that it can be treated easily by a biological treatment.
