Feasibility Analysis of Anaerobic Co-Digestion of Activated Manure and Petrochemical Wastewater in Kuantan (Malaysia)

Although anaerobic digestion provides numerous advantages, it is not extensively applied in the petrochemical industries due to slow reaction, longer hydraulic retention time and lack of process stability. This study was designed to measure the green, energy-related and financial sustainability of a...
