TREATMENT OF PALM OIL MILL EFFLUENT (POME) USING MORINGA OLEIFERA SEEDS AS NATURAL COAGULANT AND NANOFILTRATION MEMBRANE

Palm oil mill effluent (POME) is waste effluent from the production of palm oil and considered hazardous to the environment because it has a high biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total suspended solids(TSS), oil and grease, turbidity and acidic in nature. This project d...
