Description:The purpose of this research was to determine the benthic demand of the deposits in the Houston Ship Channel for use in modeling the channel for dissolved oxygen. The scope of the study included: (1) collection of bottom samples; (2) determining characteristics of the sludge such as biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), heavy metals, etc.; (3) use of galvanic oxygen cells in determining oxygen uptake rates in grams of oxygen per hour per square meter, or other units; (4) determination of benthic demands at different temperatures to obtain a demand versus temperature correlation; and (5) the determination of mixing effects.
