Bio-composting process development by SSF for utilization agro-industrial wastes

The wastes derived from oil palm industries are generated every year and becoming a great concern, consequently,an urgent development of bio-composting process has been investigated. Bio-composting is an environmental friendly bioconversion process where its products could be utilized as plant grow...
