Investigate the Relation between Particle Size Distribution (PSD) Using Image Analysis Method and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) In POME Sample
Palm Oil Mill Effluent (“after this will be mentioned as POME”) is generated as by-product during clarification and purification process to produce Crude Palm Oil (CPO). POME is a by-product which contains harmful organic soluble material if released to the environment and; therefore, it need to be...

Palm Oil Mill Effluent (“after this will be mentioned as POME”) is generated as by-product during clarification and purification process to produce Crude Palm Oil (CPO). POME is a by-product which contains harmful organic soluble material if released to the environment and; therefore, it need to be treated first before discharged to the environment. Chemical Oxygen Demand (“after this will be mentioned as COD”) represents total organic solvent in the wastewater and also amount of oxygen needed by the microorganism to oxidize the organic carbon completely to carbon dioxide, water and ammonia. Particle Size Distribution (“after this will be mentioned as PSD”) generally will affect the settling velocity, rate of sedimentation, flocculation, coagulation and absorption of organic compound. Thus, biological degradation rate in term of COD reduction is also influenced by PSD. To observe the particle size, bright field microscopy is used to acquire the image of particle size under light microscopy, and later the image will be analysed using Matlab 7.3 in order to extract all the image parameters needed.
