Notes: All Calculations are rounded up,  For Soil Porosity use: Sand (loose=0.46, mixed=0.4; dense: uniform=0.34, mixed=0.3) Clay (soft=0.55, stiff=0.37).
For Soil COD Test Method, Call BioRenova
Yellow boxes indicate variables to be input by user.  
Chemicals of concern that degrade aerobically and their Stoichiometric demand can be added so to determine total oxygen demand required and approx. cost of material.
