Introduction Chemical oxygen demand (COD) is defined as the amount of a specified oxidant that reacts with the sample under controlled conditions. The quantity of oxidant consumed is expressed in terms of its oxygen equivalence. Because of its unique chemical properties‚ the dichromate ion (Cr2O72–) is the specified oxidant in Methods

point differences between the pure tert-butyl chloride and not. In this experiment‚ tert-butyl chloride is synthesized from tert-butyl alcohol. Introduction Alkyl Halides (also known as halogenoalkanes or haloalkanes) are a group of chemical compounds derived from alkanes containing one or more halogens. They are a subset of the general class of halocarbons‚ although the distinction is not often made. Alkyl Halides are widely used commercially and‚ consequently‚ are known under many chemical and

Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) Biochemical Oxygen Demand‚ BOD‚ as it is commonly abbreviated‚ is one of the most important and useful parameters (measured characteristics) indicating the organic strength of a wastewater. BOD measurement permits an estimate of the waste strength in terms of the amount of dissolved oxygen required to break down the wastewater. The specifics of the analysis are discussed in detail in Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater. The BOD test is

Experimental Research of Wear On Filled PTFE Alloy Bearings ABSTRACT: Because of the lower coefficient of friction and good strength to weight ratio features polymer based composites are frequently used. In this work‚ experimental investigations were conducted on wear behavior of PTFE composite radial bearings filled with 15% glass fiber (GF15)‚ 40 % bronze (B40) and 35% carbon (C35) where bearing loads‚ sliding distances and wear were taken into account. For the fact that pivot pins have their

Tetrapyrrole compounds: chlorophyll and heme groups By Erwin Lim 1. Tetrapyrrole compounds A tetrapyrrole compound is a chemical group that consists of four pyrroles that are joined together by covalent bonds‚ forming a porphyrin ring. They are naturally occurring pigments‚ which are used in many biological processes (Berg‚ 2009). The basic structure of a tetrapyrrole is as seen in Figure 1‚ while the basic structure of a pyrrole is as seen in Figure 2. Figure 1.Tetrapyrrole Compound (Berg‚ 2009)
