Continuous hydrogen production with anaerobic palm oil mill effluent (POME) sludge immobilized by synthetic polymer

The increasing of the palm oil processing has resulted the increasing of the Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) that can't be treated for drinking water and can lead to an increase the total waste water in Malaysia. Hydrogen has been recognized as a promising energy in the future for being clean, ef...
