Water quality of river is greatly influenced by sediments of planktons, suspended solids and organic matters being transported by efflenced. The water quality is also affected by their release at the place of sediments with slow flow of water. This paper deals with the Characteristics of Oxygen consumption of sediments in small river which is greatly vary with time. Some typical samples of sediment were taken from both aerobic and anaerobic condition reserved for several months. and, the samples of sediment were checked on the relative ratio of oxygen consumption by nitrification.
