Continuous hydrogen production with anaerobic palm oil mill effluent (POME) sludge immobilized synthetic polymer

Hydrogen has been recognized as a promising energy in the future for being clean, efficient and recyclable. Therefore, it can be replaced with other non-renewable energy such as coal, gasoline, petroleum and metal cores for energy. The increasing of the palm oil processing has resulted the increasin...
