After graduating from the University of Breslau in 1882, he became an assistant to Moritz Traube (1826–1894) in his laboratory at Breslau. Afterwards, he served as a pharmacology assistant in Bonn (1883–86) and later worked at the mineralogical institute in Clausthal (1887–1899). From 1897 to 1899 he worked at the institute of physical chemistry in Göttingen, and in 1899 became a professor of chemistry in Braunschweig. He was in line to succeed Walther Nernst (1864–1941) as chair of physical chemistry at the University of Göttingen, however Bodländer died at the age of 49 prior to attaining the position. With Richard Abegg (1869–1910), he introduced a theory of "electo-affinity". Also, he is credited with the invention of a Gasgravimeter (gas gravimeter).
