Churning Still Water - Briefing Paper on Urban Waterbodies
Urban waterbodies play an important role in flood control, groundwater recharge and water supply to help cities adapt to climate change effects.
CSE recommends BOD as suitable parameter for water quality, wants equipment approval simplified
Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) is a satisfactory parameter to measure water quality. However, the process of measurement should be improved and speeded up. Two ways of doing this are using a bio-sensor based system or a spectrophotometer, that give results within minutes and are nearly as accurate as laboratory-based monitoring. That said, conventional laboratory testing must also be made more robust with clear protocols for sampling, transport and testing.
