PeCOD COD analyzer

The water quality monitoring system that is fast, accurate, easy-to-use without the need for dichromate

The PeCOD® COD analyzer measures photocurrent charge generated by the oxidation of organic species contained in a sample to quantify COD. As a result, you get the most accurate measurement of organic pollution in less than 15 minutes, without the use of dichromate or other hazardous chemicals.

PeCOD® is the fastest available method to quantify COD from a wide variety of waste streams. It gives users unparalleled access to accurate information for making impactful process control decisions. Simply push the “run” button, and the COD result is displayed in just a few minutes, making it easy and safe for all operations staff to use.

Operators no longer need to perform potentially hazardous procedures like digesting samples with boiling sulphuric acid containing dichromate. This eliminates the risks associated with mercury and silver salts used in the traditional “dichromate method” of COD analysis.

Highly adaptable for both wastewater and drinking water applications, the PeCOD® COD Analyzer uses a patented nanotechnology-based method. This approach saves both time and costs. It supports environmental protection and the health and safety of your workers.

PeCOD® improves laboratory safety by eliminating toxic and hazardous reagents traditionally used in COD analysis. Trusted worldwide, PeCOD® COD analyzers are used by government agencies, national labs, universities, industrial plants, food and beverage facilities, and municipal wastewater sites.
