Comparison of BOD relationships for typical edible and petroleum oils
Abstract
A laboratory program was undertaken to measure various wastewater parameters of selected edible oils and those of kerosene, 2 fuel oil, machine oil and mineral oil. Analysis was by direct measurement of oil-water emulsions. Experimental work demonstrated that edible oils are considerably more biodegradable than petroleum oils, making them easier to treat in industrial wastewater. (JMT)
