Enhanced sustainable methane production from anaerobic co-digestion of POME using UASBR (pH effects)

Malaysia is one of the biggest country that producer and exporter of the palm oil. Palm oil mills is used to process and generate palm oil from it fruit bunch. Large quantities of water are used during the extraction of crude palm oil from the fresh fruit bunch, and about 50% of the water results in palm oil mill effluent (POME). POME without proper treatment and left in the pond will decompose and generate methane gas which is a gas that can cause greenhouse effect. Methane gas is a harmful gas that 20 times stronger than Carbon dioxide in greenhouse effect if it attaches to the atmosphere. In order to prevent it happen to our environment, an enclose treatment method anaerobic co-digestion (ACD) by using upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor (UASBR) is used to treat POME as the microorganism in the sludge blanket digest the waste want organic passing through it. Anaerobic co-digestion can improve the methane production in mixing different type of material together. In this study, POME and cow manure is selected as our substrates in ratio of 50:50.
