Presence of Residual Oil in Relation to Solid Particle Distribution in Palm Oil Mill Effluent

Presence of Residual Oil in Relation to Solid Particle Distribution in Palm Oil Mill Effluent

The production of palm oil requires a large amount of water, which subsequently turns into wastewater known as palm oil mill effluent (POME). Because of its high organic content, there has been debate over how to utilize POME for oil recovery. POME is usually mainly comprised of water (95 to 96%), t...
