Utilisation of Palm Oil Mill Effluent as Nitrogen Source for Oil Palm (Elaeis Guineensis Jacq.).
Masters thesis, Universiti Pertanian Malaysia.
Abstract
Palm oil mill effluent (POME) is an organic waste material
produced at the oil mill. In its raw form, POME is highly polluting.
It must be treated before being discharged into the waterways. But
in view of its high nutrient content, it can be recycled to the soil
as a fertilizer for agricultural crops.
In this study, three series of experiments were conducted.
First, a laboratory incubation study aimed at determining the rate of
nitrogen mineral isation of treated POME. Second, hursery trials with
the objective of quantifying the amount of nitrogen availability in
treated POME using N-15 tracer technique.
