Decolorization of palm oil mill effluent using selected indigenous bacteria

In this study, the selection of suitable bacteria that is best to treat POME from final pond is the main objective. There are 20 bacteria that had been isolated from final pond of POME but only 11 species has the ability to reduce color of POME. However, only five strains out of 11 species were capa...
