These are the best practices for reducing BOD and TSS that facility managers should know:
Q. What is BOD and do in water?
The DO (dissolved oxygen) has a direct relationship with the BOD (biochemical oxygen demand) in that it is determined to test the level of the BOD in water, especially in wastewater when microorganisms and an available food supply are present in water body.

Q. What is the BOD value of pure water?
1ppm
- Focus on removing TSS from wastewater first.
- Get a properly sized EQ tank.
- Control the pH of the waste stream.
- Install a modern plate pack DAF made of stainless steel or plastic.
- Use a regenerative turbine air dissolution pump.
Q. What is TSS in wastewater?
TSS stands for Total Suspended Solids, and is the term used to refer to the solid particles suspended in water. It is defined as the total amount of solid material, suspended in water, that is retained by a filter.
Q. What is the full form of TSS?
Total suspended solids (TSS) is the dry-weight of suspended particles, that are not dissolved, in a sample of water that can be trapped by a filter that is analyzed using a filtration apparatus.
Q. What is MLSS STP?
Mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS) is the concentration of suspended solids, in an aeration tank during the activated sludge process, which occurs during the treatment of waste water. Mixed liquor is a combination of raw or unsettled wastewater or pre-settled wastewater and activated sludge within an aeration tank.
Q. What is TDS and TSS?
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) are the total amount of mobile charged ions, including minerals, salts or metals dissolved in a given volume of water, expressed in units of mg per unit volume of water (mg/L) Total suspended solids (TSS) include all particles suspended in water which will not pass through a filter.
