Techno-enviro-economic assessment of bio-CNG derived from Palm Oil …
As a major palm oil producer, Indonesia had a total production of 51 × 10 6 tons of Crude Palm Oil (CPO) in 2022. Consequently, the country generated a significant amount of Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME), estimated to be over 479,920 m 3 /day. This waste can produce more than 1.2 GW of biogas energy [4], [5]. In addition, POME contributes to ...
Pilot-scale of biohythane production from palm oil mill effluent …
Palm oil mill effluent is suitable for biohythane production via by two-stage thermophilic fermentation due to has high organic matter (75–96 g COD/L), high temperature (70–90 °C) and a large amount of POME available at palm oil mill plant [2], [12]. However, most of the reports are still at the lab scale.
Characteristics of Struvite Precipitate from Palm Oil Mill …
39 % of world palm oil production and 44% of world exports [1]. Coupled with this high production, significant quantities of waste are produced in the palm oil mill industry.
