Accelerate the reduction of palm oil mill effluent critical parameters with biological treatment

Palm oil mill effluent (POME) is the highest single polluter of Malaysian rivers. The Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD, 3-day,30o c) content of the effluent ranges from 20000-30000 p.p.m., which is about 50-60 times stronger than the domestic sewage.The Malaysian Government, the industry and the people...
