WhatsApp: +86 18203695377The rapid increase in demand for renewable energy has led to a need for more efficient and effective ways to produce biogas from palm oil mill effluent (POME), which is rich in biological and chemical oxygen demand (BOD and COD). Despite its potential as a source of biogas, POME is not always effectively utilized in biogas production due to a lack of optimization of the treatment process.
