Abstract
The objective of this study was to estimate the deoxygenation rate constant and the ultimate BOD of WWTP effluent in Mongolia. The deoxygenation rate was determined
and tested in April, 2019. The Deoxygenation rate was 0.31 /day which is a bit higher than values from other countries. The ultimate BOD was in the range of 92- 115 mg /L.
Biological oxygen demand values did not meet the limits recommended by the Mongolian National standard throughout entire study period.
This knowledge of ultimate BOD, the rates of deoxygenation in BOD reaction can be significantly valuable for designing reliable of biological treatment processes in WWTP.
