16mm COD Test Tube for Water Analysis

Chemical oxygen demand is a vital test for assessing the quality of effluents and waste waters prior to discharge. The Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) test predicts the oxygen requirement of the effluent and is used for monitoring and control of discharges, and for assessing treatment plant performance. The impact of an effluent or waste water discharge on the receiving water is predicted by its oxygen demand. This is because the removal of oxygen from the natural water reduces its ability to sustain aquatic life. The COD test is therefore performed as routine in laboratories of water utilities and industrial companies.

Details of Chemical Oxygen Demand Test:

2mL of a water or watse water sample are added to a 16mm glass culture tube containing the digestion reagent and a catalyst. The tube is capped with a polypropylene, PTFE lined cap and heated in a block digester at 150C for 2 hours. The orange Hexavalent chromium is reduced to a greenish trivalent chromium. The analytical range for the spectrophotometric method is 5-150ppm (measured at 420nm).

PP cap is made in one molded piece of inert, chemically resistant polyethylene. The starburst slits allows for easy needle penetration. Developed for high-sensitivity applications, especially in the LCMS Market, the purity of this cap for extractables is well below the picogram range. This highgrade polyethylene does not have the contamination issues PTFE/Silicone septa show at low levels of detection, while also sealing exceptionally well.

The COD tube provided by Aijiren uses high-quality glass, which is extremely inert and will not react with reagents. Through Aijiren COD tube test, the time required for the measurement process is greatly shortened, especially for standard analysis and series measurement, which greatly reduces the workload.

The COD Test Tube is made of borosilicate glass, which can reduce pH changes and contaminants that can leach out of soda-lime glass. The glass digestion test tube can be used for analysis at temperatures higher than 130 degrees Celsius. It is made of laboratory storage for a variety of general purposes and can hold almost anything.

The COD Test Tube produced by Aijiren has a capacity of 10ml, 12ml, and 15ml. The caliber is 16mm. It is often used for water quality testing and contains liquid reagents. It is mostly used in the petroleum industry and chemical analysis.

With the Aijiren COD tube test, each user can easily perform highly sensitive and accurate water detection.
The time required for the measurement process is significantly shortened, especially for standard analysis and series measurement, while significantly reducing the workload.
The COD Test tube contains a precise dose of reagent. Therefore, excessive chemical inventory is avoided and work safety is improved.

Aijiren COD Test Tube is small in size and light in weight. It can be tested without any other laboratory equipment and technicians; it only takes 3-5 minutes to test a sample, without additional materials or instruments, and is easy to operate.

COD testing is a good better indicator of organic pollutants in industrial wastewater containing cyanides and heavy metals. COD testing affords rapid response to changing conditions before critical problems develop.

With the Aijiren COD tube test, each user can easily perform highly sensitive and accurate water detection. The time required for the measurement process is greatly shortened, especially for standard analysis and series measurement, while greatly reducing the workload.

The 16mm COD Test Tube is a special glass tube designed for Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) testing in the laboratory. It has a diameter of 16mm, providing ample space for sample collection and analysis. The tube is made of high quality glass, ensuring durability and chemical compatibility for accurate and reliable COD measurements.

To use the digital heater for the COD test, set the temperature on the digital display to 150°C. On no account must the heater be set at a higher temperature than that specified as this may cause a hazard through pressure build-up in the COD tubes.

Testing water for Total Organic Carbon (TOC) is no longer exclusive to the environmental industry. With the latest USP methods, TOC is now a concern for any industry using Purified Water and Water for Injection. Aijiren Low Level TOC Vials are specially cleaned and packaged to reduce TOC to the lowest levels possible, assuring a low background for your testing.

COD Test Tube is one of Aijiren’s main products. It can complete many important experiments, such as digestion colorimetry, water quality test, oxygen demand test, etc. The COD Test Tube produced by Aijiren has high inertness, good quality and stable tube. Aijiren has become a well-known manufacturer of chromatography consumables in southern China by virtue of the good quality of COD Test Tube.

Test Tube is a term that can refer to different things depending on the context. In a scientific context, a test tube is a cylindrical glass or plastic tube used to hold and mix small amounts of liquid during experiments in laboratories. It is commonly used in chemistry, biology, and other scientific disciplines.
In a broader sense, “Test Tube” can also refer to a YouTube channel called “TestTube,” which is a popular science and educational channel owned by Discovery Digital Networks. The channel covers a wide range of topics, including science, technology, history, and culture, and provides informative and entertaining videos for viewers.

Open COD test tube, hold it at an angle and slowly add
2.0 mL of the pretreated sample solution from the reaction tube without mixing so that two separate layers
are formed.
Screw cap securely on to test tube, hold tube by the cap, place tube into the safety bottle and shake
(Caution, test tube becomes hot). Place tube into the heating block. Start heating programme.
After 2 h remove test tube from heating block, allow to cool down to room temperature and shake gently
several times.
Clean outside of test tube and measure.
Adjust photometer to zero by using blank value “NULL”

Tube tests for photometric analysis convince by their easy handling and therefore are the first choice for routine, laboratory and process analysis. A maximum in accuracy and precision is granted for the measurement results due to exactly pre-dosed reagents in 16 mm cuvettes and additional reagents.

Reusing caps and vials opens up the possibility of contamination, from solvent (liquid or vapor) interacting with the septa material as well as the atmosphere. This may seriously impact your analytical results, causes by sample contamination, chemical reaction, or evaporation. Both qualitative and quantitative errors may result, requiring time consuming, expensive, and frustrating troubleshooting and re-work.

It is worth noting that if the used COD Tubetests contain strong sulfuric acid and other chemicals, the reagents must be handled carefully. The items in the pipeline should be disposed of in accordance with the requirements of local authorities. These tubes can only be used once and cannot be reused.
