Macrocomposite effectiveness in the treatment of used water from the UTHM Pagoh Café

This work aims to utilise a macrocomposite as an adsorbent to treat kitchen wastewater from the UTHM Pagoh café. The characteristics of kitchen wastewater were determined by measuring two parameters: suspended solid (SS) and chemical oxygen demand (COD). Because the macrocomposite was composed of ze...
