Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPalm Oil Milling Wastes and Sustainable DevelopmentA.C. Er, Abd. Rahim Md. Nor, Katiman RostamProblem statement: Palm oil milling generates solid wastes, effluent and gaseous emissions. The aim of this study is to assess the progress made in waste management by the Malaysian palm oil milling sector towards the path of sustainable development. Sustainable development is defined as the utilization of renewable resources in harmony with ecological systems. Inclusive in this definition is the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 17 May 2011 · 7,697 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA New Development in Biological Process for Wastewater Treatment to Produce Renewable FuelKadhum M. Shabeeb, Khalid A. Sukkar, Rana A. Azeez et al.Problem statement: Hydrogen is a clean energy source. Bio-conversion of biomass to generate hydrogen has been achieved using anaerobic fermentation of some well-defined materials, in wastewater. No data available on hydrogen yielded from wastewater using inoculum extracted from Iraqi municipal wastewater treatment plant. Approach: This study investigated the effects of substrate concentration, initial pH and process temperature on biohydrogen production … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,255 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe 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 · 9,215 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNanowire Mediated Effect of Interspecies Electron Transfer in Organic Solid Waste Co-FermentationJingkang Chen, Daicheng Liu et al.Low efficiency of Interspecific Electron Transfer (IET) among microorganisms constrains organic matter degradation and biogas production in organic solid waste co‑fermentation. This work investigates the underlying bottleneck and evaluates the nanowire‑mediated enhancement of IET. Surface plasmon resonance‑enhanced electrochemical impedance spectroscopy coupled with metagenomic and metatranscriptomic sequencing was applied to regulate endogenous nanowire formation in anaerobic reactors. Surface Plasmon Resonance-Enhanced Electrochemical … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 9 Oct 2026 · 607 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Efficient Thermal Conversion Technologies and HHV from Compositional Characteristics of Cassava Peelings, Plantain Peelings and Corn CobsSamomssa Inna, Oumarou Amadou Amadou, Jiokap Nono Yvette et al.The understanding of compositional characteristics permits to predict the efficient thermal conversion technologies and Higher Heating Value (HHV). Although HHV can be determined directly, many models have been proposed for HHV prediction. They are based on proximate, ultimate, and structural analysis and require much data collected. The present work assesses to predict efficient thermal conversion technologies and HHV of the … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 27 Dec 2022 · 10,160 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUtilization of Rumen Content by Indigenous Microorganisms in a Modified Anaerobic DigesterAlhassan Salihu Adam, Sani Yahaya, Haruna Musa et al.The current work was designed to assess the effect of modification of model digester on the kinetics that affects efficiency in biogas generation using bovine rumen content as the feedstock. A biogas plant consisting of conventional and modified fixed-dome digesters (each with 2 m3 capacity) was established; and bovine rumen content was used as feedstock. Standard methods were used to … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 26 Sep 2020 · 6,784 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAn Opportunity for the Agricultural Sector: The Renewable Energy SourcesRiccardo Testa, Salvatore TudiscaToday, among the most important issue for energy decisions by policymakers, there are security challenges and environmental impacts on climate change and economic aspects. Since the seventies, in fact, global warming and environmental issues have had an increasing importance in international debate, attracting the attention of several scientific studies (Landi and Benelli, 2016). Many of these studies denoted that over … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2016 · 8,098 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Microwave Pretreatment on BMP of Decanter Cake from Palm Oil Mill FactoryThaniya Kaosol, Worawuth RungarunanotaiAnaerobic digestion is an effective method for treating decanter cake in the biogas production. Decanter cake usage is limited by its slow fiber degradation for anaerobic digestion process. The aim of this study is to study the possibility of using microwave pretreatment to enhance decanter cake digestibility. The power and heating time are the parameters that influence the biogas production … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 23 May 2016 · 7,631 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnaerobic Digestion of Pulping Wastewater Using Up-flow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) Reactor at Mesophilic ConditionRanda M. Osman, M. HamadThe waste considered for this study was the effluent of the pulping process produced during the manufacture of pulp and paper in the Rakta integrated pulp and paper mill in Alexandria.
