Production of methane from palm oil mill effluent by using iltrasonicated membrane anaerobic system (UMAS)

Production of methane from palm oil mill effluent by using iltrasonicated membrane anaerobic system (UMAS)

The direct discharge of the Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) wastewater causes serious environmental pollution due to its high chemical oxygen demand (COD), total suspended solids (TSS) and biological oxygen demand (BOD). The conventional ways for POME wastewater treatment have both economical and envi...
