Abstract Reusing palm oil mill effluent (POME) to generate bioenergy effectively promotes a circular economy in wastewater treatment, cleaner production, and renewable
Effect of different mediators on bio-energy generation and palm oil mill effluent treatment in an air-cathode microbial fuel cell-adsorption system, defect and diffusion
ACS PublicationsInnovative Solutions for Palm Oil Mill Effluent Treatment: A
Abstract Palm oil mill effluent (POME) presents significant environmental challenges in palm oil-producing countries due to its complex composition and high organic content. Membrane
Membrane technologies offer an effective approach for transforming POME treatment from an energy-intensive process into a resource recovery system, supporting the decarbonization of
White Rose Research OnlineEnergy generation from palm oil mill effluent: A life cycle
ABSTRACT This study conducted a life cycle assessment of palm oil mill effluent (POME) based energy generation using the CML 2001 method and Gabi 8 software, focusing on two POME
Provides a study on biogas production from palm oil mill effluent (POME) as a promising renewable energy alternative.

ABSTRACT: Palm oil mill efluent (POME) presents significant environmental challenges in palm oil-producing countries due to its complex composition and high organic content. Membrane
Palm oil mill effluent has become the major pollutant contributed by palm oil mills when discharge to the environment as it degrades water quality and thus the water cannot be directly released to the environment (Panagopoulos and Haralambous, 2025). POME is rich in solid, oil and grease (O&G) and high in organic content (Mohammad et al., 2025). It contains
Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) Treatment—Current
With the growing volume of palm oil production, palm oil mill effluent (POME)Palm oil mill effluent (POME) is an inevitable by-product that causes serious environmental hazards if discharged directly to the environment. This is mainly due to its high concentrations...
Palm oil milling has progressed over the years with modernization and technology development. However, treatment methods for palm oil mill effluent (POME) remain archaic with little improvement in technology; due to the inherent challenges associated with the characteristics of POME along with microbial population sensitive to operational changes in the existing

ABSTRACT This study conducted a life cycle assessment of palm oil mill effluent (POME) based energy generation using the CML 2001 method and Gabi 8 software, focusing on two POME treatment technologies: the covered lagoon bio-digester (CLB) and the continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR). The analysis determined the respective environmental impacts of the
Our Libo Biogas plant in Riau. Turning waste into energy Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) is a wastewater resulting from processing fresh fruit bunches to crude palm oil at the mills. Left untreated in the open, POME
ZERO DISCHARGE TREATMENT TECHNOLOGY
Table 7 provides an indication on the economic feasibility of the biogas plant and the potential energy production from a typical 60 t hr-1 palm oil mill (based on basic inancial model).
To improve the effectiveness of the aerobic treatment system while keeping costs low, phenol in facultatively treated mill effluent may be adsorbed using biochar made from an oil palm frond (OPF).
Optimisation of anaerobic digestion of palm oil mill effluent
Abstract Fluctuations in biogas production and low methane yields remain significant challenges in the palm oil industry. To address these challenges, this study introduces a novel approach by applying biochar (BC) assisted anaerobic digestion (AD) to palm oil mill effluent (POME) to optimize methane yield.
Jan 22, 2025Palm oil is one of the most important agroindustries in Malaysia. Huge quantities of palm oil mill effluent (POME) pose a great threat to aqueous environment due to its very high COD. To make full use of discharged wastes, the integrated “zero discharge” pilot-scale industrial plant comprising “pretreatment-anaerobic and aerobic process-membrane separation” was
First Report on Malaysia’s experiences and development
The palm oil milling process produces excessive amount of palm oil mill effluent (POME). Conventionally, POME is treated anaerobically to remove organic pollutant which produces biogas. Ideally, biogas is recovered to reduce the carbon footprint of palm oil production. However, more often than not the biogas is released freely to the atmosphere as a potent
ABSTRACT Biological treatment pond system has been adopted by Malaysian palm oil mills to treat palm oil mill effluent (POME). Conventional treatment pond system is no longer able to comply with the new legislation requirements as implemented and enforced by Department of Environment (DOE) recently. Various tertiary POME treatment technologies have been
