Abstract
Since 1980, the concept of palm oil mill effluent treatment has changed, and there have been several research and development projects to investigate the utilization of the so called waste materials from the palm oil mills. A pollution prevention approach has been increasingly adoted by the industry. Anaerobic liquor is being beneficially recycled to crops and improved crop yield and soil properties have been recorded, and biogas is being harnessed for heat and electricity generation. This paper highlights some of the recent developments.Keywords
