Palm Oil Mill Effluent Treatment by Activated Sludge Process using Submerged Mechanical Aerator/Agitator

The environmental quality regulations for palm oil mill effluent (POME) has reduced the biological oxygen demand (BOD) level to 5000 mg litre-1 as the first generation discharge standard limit. However, the discharge limit was subsequently revised and drastically reduced to the present limit of 100 mg litre-1. It is anticipated that the discharge limit will […]
