Palm oil mill effluent (POME) is one of the main agro-industrial wastewaters in Malaysia. Highly polluting POME a serious threat to environment. In recent years, methods used treat are inefficient and complex terms cost or environmental preservation. The object this research propose single reactor system (SRS) obtained from wastewater discharge as promising low-cost treatment high-energy method...

Immobilization of lipase enzyme produced from palm oil mill effluent (POME) by the activated carbon (AC) among the low cost support materials was optimized. The results indicated that immobilization of 94% was achieved by AC as the most suitable support material. A sequential optimization strategy based on a statistical experimental design, including one-factor-at-a-time (OFAT) method was used ...

Abstract The principle of maximum entropy (POME) is employed to derive a new method of parameter estimation for the 3-parameter generalized Pareto (GP) distribution. Monte Carlo simulated data are used to evaluate this method and compare it with the methods of moments (MOM), probability weighted moments (PWM), and maximum likelihood estimation (MLE). The parameter estimates yielded by the POME ...

Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB)] homopolymer and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3hydroxyvalerate) [P(3HB-co-3HV)] copolymer was produced by Comamonas sp. EB172 using single and mixture of carbon sources. Poly(3-hydroxyvalerate) P(3HV) incorporation in the copolymer was obtained when propionic and valeric acid was used as precursors. Incorporation of 3HV fractions in the copolymer varied from 45 to 8...

Chemical synthesis of palm oil trimethylolpropane esters was conducted via transesterification of palm oil methyl esters (POME) with trimethylolpropane (TMP). The palm oil TMP esters are potential biodegradable base stock for lubricant production. The influence of the main operating variables, namely, temperatures and pressures, molar ratio of palm methyl esters to TMP, and catalyst amount was ...

Quantitative information on the spatiotemporal distribution of polarised proteins is central for understanding cell-fate determination, yet collecting sufficient data statistical analysis difficult to accomplish with manual measurements. Here we present Polarity Measurement (Pome), a semi-automated pipeline quantification cell polarity and demonstrate its application variety developmental conte...

Abstract Background and Aims: Apple scar skin disease (ASSD) is one of the destructive diseases of pome fruits which is caused by ASSVd. Case presentation: We report molecular detection of ASSVd in symptomatic apples cv. Red Delicious with simultaneous presence of a new variant of HSVd from Khorasan Razavi province. Conclusion: This is the first report on the association of HSVd with...

Abstract Palm oil mill effluent (POME) treatment is an anthropogenic activity contributing to global warming through methane emission. The inability address this issue would deem true the catastrophic impacts of temperatures exceeding 2 °C as was predicted by Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in 2015. Little research and development exist GHGs monitoring emissions POME facilities...

Although Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) can be used as a raw material for biodiesel production, the POME contains an excessive amount of Free Fatty Acids (FFA), necessitating preliminary process and esterification. is degummed using phosphate acid bleached with carbon active. Additionally, this study KOH-impregnated zeolite to reduce FFA. The purpose determine effect adding impregnated on was he...
