1-1 SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION The Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) has sponsored research on environmental characteristics of aircraft and pavement deicers and anti-icers focusing primarily on biochemical oxygen demand (BOD)

1-2 complete containment of spent deicing and anti-icing fluids is impractical without a significant financial burden. A potentially more practical approach to reducing the environmental impacts of deicers is in reducing BOD and the potential toxic impact of components in the products and, by extension, in discharges to the environment.
