Water quality monitoring of Online TOX/BOD System – HABT-3000

TOX/BOD System, HABT-3000, is a system designed to measure BOD and monitor toxic substances by using MFC as a sensor. The MFC used in HABT-3000 enables measurement of BOD on diverse organic concentration and properties by using complex microbes that live in the field, and at the same time, it is a model for real-time measurement that can be applied to detection of various toxic substances within a sample.

Characteristics

HABT-3000

Simultaneous Measurement of Toxic Substance (TOX) / BOD

• • InnovationSimultaneous measurement of organic concentration and toxic substances by using MFC
  • GreenNo emission of harmful chemicals
    Safe for the environment by using microbes living in the ecosystem

Rapidity & Sensitivity

• • Rapidity Reaction within 10 minutes
  • Sensitivity Superior sensitivity compare to other technologies through the use of microbes
    Reaction to diverse harmful substances

Convenience

• • Convenience Doesn’t require cultivation or supply of test organisms
    Easy and convenient operation
  • Cost Doesn’t require test organism expenditure or replacement
    Doesn’t require cultivation and management personnel

Principle

When the sample flows into the sensor, the organic matter within the sample oxidizes by the microbes and electric signal is generated. Because the amount of electricity generated is proportional to the concentration of organic matter, the BOD of the sample can be measured. On the other hand, because the organic matter dies or the metabolism is blocked due to reduction of current production value when toxic substances flow in, the inflow of toxic substance can be detected..
