Hello Maya,

           It is possible to monitor the BOD, microbial activity and toxicity of industrial effluents in near-real time using pressure based measurements (respirometry). One key advantage is the lack of maintenance required because sensors  are protected from this aggressive environment. The Shepherd system (Bactest) can help you monitor the loading, the reaction of the  biomass to that loading in activated sludge, and the oxygen required to process it. Should a toxic event occur, the system senses the change in biological activity and alerts accordingly, allowing rapid remediation. The system has both local display and cloyd based dashbouard so that all historical data and trends can be accessed remotely.

I hope this is helpful.  Derek Price
