The physicochemical characterization of raw wastewater revealed that this liquid rejection is very charged out of organic matter expressed in term with COD (Avg. = 1104mg/L¡À52,2) with a load of 44160Kg/d, in BOD5 (Avg. =540,1mg/L¡À31,1) with a load of 21604 Kg/d, in Suspend Solid (Avg. =568,4mg/L¡À222) with a load of 22736 Kg/d, and out of mineral matter expressed in Electric Conductivity (Avg. =3280¦ÌS/cm¡À1120) with a pH of 7,96 (¡À0,8). The average content of NTK and Orthophosphates are about 88,02mg/L (¡À 2,8) and 16,76mg/L (¡À1,1). Although this wastewater presents a high organic load BOD5/COD = 0,5 et SS/ BOD5 = 1,05), they have a satisfactory biodegradation. The examination of report COD/BOD5 = 2,07 underlines well the biodegradable character to which a biological treatment appears completely suitable. %K Waste Water %K COD %K BOD5 %K Biodegradability %K Oujda. %U http://revues.imist.ma/index.php?journal=technolab&page=article&op=view&path%5B%5D=598
