1 Tote (3000lbs) of acetic acid 56% - 425,000 mg/L BOD for each liter used

· 3000 lbs of acetic acid 56% = 361 gallons x 4 L/gallons= 1444 L
· 425,600 mg/L x 1444= 614,566,400 mg/L contribution to BOD


1 Tote (3000lbs) of Ultra Biocid – 6,100 mg/L BOD for each liter used

· 3000lbs of Ultra Biocid = 361 gallons x 4 L/gallons= 1444L
· 6,100 mg/L x 1444= 8,808,400 mg/L contribution to BOD

Conclusion:
70 times more O2 required for Acetic Acid 56% than Ultra Biocid
