Development And Utilization Of Aerobic Granular Biomass In Palm Oil Mill Effluent (Pome) Treatment

Palm oil mill effluent (POME) discharged without proper treatment could cause severe environmental problem in Malaysia. The conventional biological treatment method using activated sludge in series of ponds is considered obsolete. Hence, in this work, aerobic granular biomass was developed and utili...
