Renewable energy from palm oil mill effluent (Pome) using microbial fuel cell

As fossil fuel becomes finite, the growing pressure is on finding and sustaining renewable energy. Renewable energy sources are from solar, wind hydraulic, biomass and fuel cell. The Malaysian government has nominated renewable energy as its fifth fuel strategy, in addition to the current fuel strat...
