German term

(organische) Fracht

German to English Tech/Engineering Environment & Ecology
context: processing of residues in olive oil production

Abwasserbehandlung
Mittels einer mechanisch-biologischen Vorbehandlung wird das Abwasser in seine gelösten und ungelösten Anteile getrennt und damit die organische Fracht um 40 – 60% reduziert. Optional kann auch das restliche Olivenöl im Abwasser von 0,5 – 1,5 Vol-% separiert werden.

Is there an industry-specific term for this, or will simply content do?

TIA, Beth

agree Edith Kelly : I tend to agree though I wonder whether COD would not be the proper expression here.

agree Wolf Brosius (X) : possibly BOD and COD

agree Gillian Scheibelein : not BOD/COD (biological/chemical O2 demand), you are thinking of TOC (total organic carbon)
