Production of methane from palm oil mill effluent using membrane anaerobic system

Palm oil mill effluent (POME) is a highly polluting wastewater that pollutes the environment if discharged directly due to its high chemical oxygen demand (COD), total suspended solids (TSS), volatile suspended solids (V•SS) and biological oxygen demand (BOD). The transformation of the palm oil mil...
