As someone who's worked in the Industry, my competence is not in the technical issue of TDS vs. COD but in the Stakeholder Engagement for Stakeholder / Public Opinion Management that can damage Reputations and bring much heightened Regulatory Scrutiny. In issues like "toilet-to-tap," or "toilet-to-aquifer" deep-well injection, it's a major issue that I've worked to plan for and manage. I don't know what your re-use parameters are, so re-use issues may (or may not) rear their ugly head in terms of Management of Public / Stakeholder Expectations / Relationships / Reputations. Always happy to chat about this.

Thanks a lot. but the issue is that the purpose of reuse is for industrial consumption and the problem is that the industries are so diverse.
anyway I guess TDS is more important (although I am not sure). because the secondary treatment unit can decrease the COD, but it does not have any influence on TDS. So TDS is more critical. if you refer to Ken's comments it can this issue more clear for you.
thanks
