Approach: The isolation of microbes from compost heap was conducted at day 7 of composting process where the mixture of composting materials consisted of 45.8% cellulose, 17.1% hemicellulose and 28.3% … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 12,155 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleCo-Digestion of Palm Oil Mill Effluent and Refined Glycerin Wash Water for Chemical Oxygen Demand Removal and Methane ProductionA. Sulaiman, M. R. Zakaria, M. A. Hassan et al.Problem statement: Refined Glycerin Wash Water (RGWW) from the oleochemical industry contains high Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and requires proper treatment before disposal. Unfortunately the wash water also contains high concentration of sodium chloride (NaCl) that could cause inhibition to the normal biological treatment process. However, there is feasibility of co-digesting the RGWW and Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) for … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 7,936 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEffect of Microwave and Ultrasonic Pretreatments on Biogas Production from Anaerobic Digestion of Palm Oil Mill EffleuntN. Saifuddin, S A. FazliliProblem Statement: Oil palm production is a major agricultural industry in Malaysia. In 2006, palm oil mills in Malaysia produced more than 58 million tonnes of Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME). Existing treatment in a series of open lagoons at high ambient temperatures, results in the uncontrolled production of methane and carbon dioxide, which are both green house gases (GHGs). … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,986 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThe Effect of Higher Sludge Recycling Rate on Anaerobic Treatment of Palm Oil Mill Effluent in a Semi-Commercial Closed Digester for Renewable EnergyAlawi Sulaiman, Zainuri Busu, Meisam Tabatabaei et al.Problem statement: A 500 m3 semi-commercial closed anaerobic digester was constructed for Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) treatment and methane gas capture for renewable energy. During the start-up operation period, the Volatile Fatty Acids (VFA) accumulation could not be controlled and caused instability on the system. Approach: A settling tank was installed and sludge was recycled as to provide a … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 9,210 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEnvironmental Performance of the Milling Process Of Malaysian Palm Oil Using The Life Cycle Assessment ApproachVijaya Subramaniam, Ma An Ngan, Choo Yuen May, Nik Meriam Nik SulaimanMalaysia is currently the world leader in the production and export of palm oil. This study has a gate to gate system boundary. The inventory data collection starts at the oil palm fresh fruit bunch hoppers when the fresh fruit bunch is received at the mill up till the production of the crude palm oil in the storage tanks at … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 8,819 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleSeparation of Coenzyme Q10 in Palm Oil by Supercritical Fluid ChromatographyNg Mei Han, Choo Yuen May, Ma Ah Ngan et al.Palm oil is known to host a variety of phytonutrients; some having antioxidant property such as the carotenes and vitamin E. These antioxidants are also present in the oil recovered from the palm-pressed fibre. Study was carried out to investigate the presence of coenzyme Q10, yet another non-glyceride compound which possesses antioxidant property in crude palm oil (CPO) and palm … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2006 · 7,667 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleCrystallisation and Melting Behavior of Methyl Esters of Palm OilCheng Sit Foon, Yung Chee Liang, Noor Lida Habi Mat Dian et al.The methyl esters of palm oil, which consists of saturated and unsaturated esters (0.6 to 95.9% unsaturation) of the C12 to C18 fatty acids, solidify at the two temperature ranges, -52 to -45°C and -24 to 21°C, when the esters are cooled. When the esters are heated, they melt at two distinct temperatures, -25 and -33°C and a broad peak … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 7,049 accessesView PDFCite
