Co-digestion of palm oil mill effluent (pome) with cow manure for biogas production

In this study, experiments were conducted to investigate the production of biogas through anaerobic digestion from the co-digestion of palm oil mill effluent (POME) with cow manure. Besides, the effect of co-digestion towards the change of methane composition in biogas was also evaluated. The batch...
