• Two standard 300-ml BOD bottles are taken for this purpose
For example, Lets assume that the BOD of the ww is 200 mg/l and
5 mg/l of DO is consumed in five days
So the sample required will be 5/200 = 0.025 or 2.5 percentage
In a standard bottle of 300 ml and the sample size would be
300 x 0.025 = 7.5 ml
