Zero Discharged Treatment System of Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME)

摘要

THE PRESENT INVENTION RELATES TO ESTABLISHMENT OF A ZERO DISCHARGE TREATMENT TECHNOLOGY OF POME MAINLY ROUTED IN (1) PRE-TREATMENT, (2) BIOLOGICAL TREATMENT AND (3) MEMBRANE SEPARATION. THE ULTIMATE GOALS OF THE DEVELOPED ZERO DISCHARGE POME TREATMENT TECHNOLOGY ARE: (1) PRODUCE BIOGAS AS A SOURCE OF RENEWABLE ENERGY, (2) ZERO EMISSIONS OF POME INTO THE ATMOSPHERE, (3) FINAL DISCHARGE OF BOD 20 PPM OR BELOW; (4) CLEAN WATER FOR USE AS BOILER FEED WATER AND (5) RECOVER POTASH RICH FERTILIZER, WHICH ARE OF GREAT VALUES TO THE PALM OIL MILLING PROCESS.
