A Review of Palm Oil Mill Effluent (Pome) Water Treatment
Palm oil is one of the two most important vegetable oils in the world’s oil and fats market. The extraction and purification processes generate different kinds of waste generally known as palm oil mill effluent (POME). The environmental impact of POME cannot be over emphasized; hence the need for treatment measures to reduce these impacts before discharge. Therefore, this paper reviews the proc...
متن کاملBiohydrogen generation from palm oil mill effluent using anaerobic contact filter
In this study treatment of palm oil mill effluent was carried out with the intention to produce hydrogen during the anaerobic degradation process. The hydrogen generating microflora was isolated from the cow dung based on pH adjustment (pH 5) coupled with heat treatment (2 h). The microflora was initially tested for its hydrogen generating capability for varying fermentation pH of 4, 5, 6 and 7...
متن کاملDecolorisation of Biologically Treated Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) Using Adsorption Technique
An experimental study was conducted on the adsorption of color from biologically treated POME using palm kernel shell (PKS) and empty fruit bunches (EFB) as natural biosorbents, and activated carbon prepared from them by microwave and chemical activation with potassium hydroxide (KOH). BET surface area of all sorbents was determined and 1252 m 2 .g -1 was recorded for activated carbon prepared ...
متن کاملIsolation of Lipase Producing Fungi from Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) Dump Sites at Nsukka
In this study, twelve fungal lipase producing strains belonging to Aspergillus, Penicillium, Trichoderma and Mucor genera were isolated from palm oil mill effluent composts. The Aspergillus spp. were more frequent (42%) and was present in all the samples assayed. Mucor sp. was the least encountered (8.3%).The lipase producing profile showed that Trichoderma (8.07-8.24 u/mL) and Aspergillus (6.2...
متن کاملBiomethanation of Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) by Membrane Anaerobic System (MAS) using POME as a Substrate
The direct discharge of palm oil mill effluent (POME) wastewater causes serious environmental pollution due to its high chemical oxygen demand (COD) and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD). Traditional ways for POME treatment have both economical and environmental disadvantages. In this study, a membrane anaerobic system (MAS) was used as an alternative, cost effective method for treating POME. Six...
