What Does TVS Stand For?
TVS stands for Total Volatile Solids
Total Volatile Solids (TVS) refers to the portion of solid matter in a sample that can be vaporized or decomposed at high temperatures. It is a crucial parameter used in environmental science, wastewater treatment, and biological processes to assess the organic content and stability of materials such as sludges and substrates. By measuring TVS, researchers and engineers can gauge the efficiency of biodegradation processes and the potential for energy recovery from organic waste.
