Treatment of Palm Oil Mill Effluent by Electrocoagulation with Presence of Hydrogen Peroxide as Oxidizing Agent and Polialuminum Chloride as Coagulant-Aid

The purposes of this study were to investigate the effects of operating parameters, such as electrode material, current density, percentage of hydrogen peroxide and amount of polialuminum chloride (PAC) on chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal of palm oil mill effluent (POME). The current density was...
