Detergent products are now used by almost all the residents for variouspurposes such as washing clothes and furniture as well as other cleaning materials.Chemical oxygen Demand (COD) is the amount of oxygen needed to oxidize the organic substances present in the water sample or the amount of oxygen is needed to oxidize organic substancesinto CO2 and H2O.
