Application of solar assisted bioreactor for biogas production from palm oil mill effluent co-digested with cattle manure

The key objective of this research was to investigate the potential of the co-digestion of palm oil mill effluent (POME) with cattle manure (CM) in a solar-assisted bioreactor (SABr) to produce enhanced biogas. The solar panel first converted solar radiation into electricity, which then warmed up th...
