Effect of concentration of mixed culture of fungi on the biodegradation of palm oil mill effluent

The performance of mixed culture of isolated fungi on the biodegradation of palm oil mill effluent (POME) was evaluated in this study. Specifically, the effect of effect of dosage of the mixed culture on the degradation of lipid content of the POME was investigated in order to determine the suitable...
