Kinetic Parameter Studies Of Activated Sludge Process For Anaerobic Pre-Treated Palm Oil Mill Effluent.
PhD thesis, Perpustakaan Hamzah Sendut.
Abstract
A study on the evaluation of kinetic parameters for activated sludge process
treating palm oil mill effluents is reported. It is hypothesized that kinetic parameters
are applicable for analyzing the performance of activated sludge process for treating
high strength palm oil mill effluents (POME). The kinetic parameters were obtained
through bench-scale continuous flow experimental studies and batch studies using
respirometry technique. The studies utilized samples of POME obtained from a
facultative pond from an existing palm oil mill. The bench scale studies were
conducted by treating the POME in three modes: first, the sample POME was mixed
with activated carbon; second, the sample as a perforated plastic as a medium was
submerged in the sample and third, the sample was used as is without being mixed
with the activated carbon or any medium. The activated carbon was made from palm
kernel and was prepared as well as characterized in the laboratory.
