In the present study, a co-culture of yeast (Lipomyces starkeyi) and bacterium (Bacillus cereus) was used to optimize lipid accumulation capability and simultaneous treatment of wastewater using palm oil mill effluent (POME) as a carbon source. The influence of process parameters (i.e., inoculum com...
