Before designing or buying an Effluent Treatment Plant, industries must collect the right wastewater data. This blog explains the key ETP design inputs — flow, BOD, COD, TSS, TDS, pH, sludge, reuse target, ZLD requirement and source-wise effluent details — so the treatment system is sized correctly and avoids future compliance failures.

BOD, COD, TDS and TSS are key wastewater treatment parameters used to judge organic load, dissolved solids, suspended solids, treatment efficiency and compliance risk. This guide explains what each parameter means, how ratios such as BOD/COD and TSS/COD are interpreted, and when industries should review ETP/STP performance, process control, water reuse or treatment plant design.
