Description
Summary:The discharge sago effluents produceharmful effect to the environment. Hence, the treatment of the sago effluent under microfiltration (MF) process is necessary to reduce the impact to the biodiversity. The treatment for sago effluent can be done by using Tangential Filtration Flow system (TFF). However, clogging is the drawback factor. The main agenda for this project is to minimise the clogging and, therefore, increase the life-span of the membrane by using automated controller system. Besides, reduction in maintenance cost of the complete system for the treatment of the sago effluent is achieved. The effectiveness of this process is evaluated by the trans-membrane pressure (TMP) and permeate flux rate(L/h/m2).
