What Does TOD Stand For?
TOD stands for Theoretical Oxygen Demand
Theoretical Oxygen Demand (TOD) is a quantitative measure used to assess the potential oxygen required to oxidize organic and inorganic substances present in water or wastewater. TOD is an important parameter in environmental science and water quality management, reflecting the biological and chemical processes that can deplete dissolved oxygen in aquatic systems. This metric helps evaluate the environmental impact of pollutants and inform treatment strategies for maintaining water quality.
