Description
Summary:This research paper is to study effect of image analysis in POME wastewater plant. This topic is very relevant to the Malaysia current industry as there is still no certain research done relating both POME sample with imaging technique. The rate at which other environmental problems are mounting is also alarming. The activated sludge is the major component in treating wastewater and where microorganism’s characteristics are observed. Poor wastewater treatment and poor floc settling are examples of less efficient water treating process. The world water quality is worsening and our river and sea are being contaminated with this chemical wastes. In order to fulfill the objective of this research in which to study the size of aggregates by using the POME sample, number of experiments and microscopic analysis need to be conducted. The analysis that are need to undergone are the effect of serial dilution, image processing, and also percentages of aggregate size. The main purpose of this analysis is to determine the best properties out from the POME wastewater effluent system to be applied in their activated sludge. The length of this research is up to nine months starting from January 2014 until September 2014.
