Preliminary report on the tolerance and growth of micro algae in the sludge from hypochlorite manufacturing industry and possibility of using these micro algae for remediation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The ETP sludge of a hypochlorite manufacturing industry can be a potent pollutant of an aquatic environment. The hyposludge is highly alkaline with high TDS. It is milky white with sodium hypochlorite as a major constituent. The present work attempts to identify micro algae which can tolerate and grow in the hyposludge, Preliminary laboratory screening revealed that Chlorococcum humicola and Chroococcus turgidus showed a significant growth. These two micro algal species can be employed for remediation of hyposludge after systematic lab trials followed by pilot scale studies.

Producing crude palm oil (CPO) will have side effect on producing palm oil mill effluent (POME). Besides of high COD /BOD contents, POME still contains high amount of nutrients (nitrogen, phosphor and mineral). Traditional treatment of palm oil mill effluent using facultative anaerobic method not fully eliminated COD and BOD into allowable limit. The objective of this research was to utilize p...
