What is the importance of measuring BOD of a water body?

Answers (1)

BOD is a measure of the amount of organic material present in water, in terms of how much oxygen it requires to break it down biologically. If the water has a value of BOD less than 5 ppm, it is considered as clean water, whereas highly contaminated water has the value of BOD of 17ppm or more.
