Palm oil mill effluent (POME) is one of the most significant pollutant in form wastewater. It could have negative effects on environment include emission biogas and water pollution which comes from discharging brownish tick POME to bodies if not properly managed. Discharge dark colored directly into may affect aquatic life as it will reduce sunlight penetration suppress photosynthetic activity....

Abstract Most palm oil mills adopted conventional ponding system, including anaerobic, aerobic, facultative and algae ponds, for the treatment of mill effluent (POME). Only a few installed bio-polishing plant to treat POME further before its final discharge. The present study aims determine quality toxicity levels discharge from three different by using chemical analyses fish (Danio rerio) embr...

Abstract Aiming to mitigate wastewater pollution arising from the palm oil industry, this university-industry research-and-development project focused on integration of serial treatment processes, including use moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR), pre-treatment with sand filters and activated carbon filters, membrane technology for aerobically-digested mill effluent (POME) treatment. To assess po...

At harvest, apple fruit are placed into wooden or plastic bins (approximately 400 kg of fruit per bin), which are then transported to storage and packing facilities. Prior to storage, fruit may be drenched with a fungicide to control postharvest diseases (10). Fruit are stored in the bins in either regular atmosphere (RA) or controlled atmosphere (CA) (1 to 2% O2 and 0.5% CO2) at –1 to 3°C (9)....
