ANAEROBIC DIGESTER
alternative for wastewater treatment and simultaneous fuel gas production
low costs, energy production, relatively small space requirement
![Page 7: PRODUCTION OF CITRIC ACID FROM POME](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061419/551621914979596a0d8b4604/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
AEROBIC ATTACHED –GROWTH SYSTEM :TRICKLING FILTER Non-energy intensive process with far less
operating area requirement . Able to withstand shock load and influent
quality fluctuation With aerobic, anaerobic as well as nitrifying
bacteria populating the trickling filter, the wastewater can be treated with high efficiency using this treatment method
In a trickling filter, the microorganisms grow as a bio-film on an immobile solid support over which the liquid flows in thin sheets .

PONDING SYSTEM The raw effluent is treated using a ponding
system comprising of three phases,i.e. anaerobic, facultative, and algae processes.
Although the system takes a longer retention time of 90 days, it is less sensitive to environment changes, stable, efficient and could guarantee excellent pollutant biodegradation efficiency of above 95%.

BIOREACTOR SYSTEM This is a simple and innovative bioreactor
process that is capable of treating POME efficiently.
The system is superior to the conventional system as it operates with very short hydraulic retention times, takes high organic loading, requires less space and is more environmentally friendly.

1) HYDROLYSISo In the first stage of hydrolysis, the polymeric
organic materials are hydrolysed to monomers such as glucose, fatty acids and amino acids by hydrolytic bacteria (Aspergillus niger).
o The hydrolysis process is of significant importance in high organic waste and may become rate limiting. Solubilisation involves hydrolysis process where the complex organic matter is hydrolysed into soluble monomers.
![Page 21: PRODUCTION OF CITRIC ACID FROM POME](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061419/551621914979596a0d8b4604/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
o Fats are hydrolysed into fatty acids or glycerol; proteins are hydrolysed into amino acids or peptides while carbohydrates are hydrolysed into monosaccharides and dissacharides.
Fats long chain fatty acids, glycerol
Proteins amino acids, short-chain peptides
Polysaccharides monosaccharides, disaccharides

2) FERMENTATION
In fermentation stage, the hydrolysed products are converted to volatile fatty acids, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, ammonia, carbon dioxide, water and hydrogen by the acid-forming bacteria.
The organic acids formed are acetic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid and valeric acid.
![Page 23: PRODUCTION OF CITRIC ACID FROM POME](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061419/551621914979596a0d8b4604/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
CITRIC ACID PRODUCTION
After the fermentation is over, calcium citrate is precipitated from the fermented broth by adding calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2).
It is then filtered, washed, and treated with sulphuric acid (H2SO4) to precipitate calcium sulphate and to find citric acid.
Then, evaporation process will be used to futher isolate and purified the product. Finally, the citric acid will be crystallized.

ESTIMATED QUANTITIES OF BIOCONVERSION
According to MPOB the production of the Palm oil Empty Fruit Bunch (EFB) and Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) is estimate 16700k tones and 38900k tones respectively.
The potential yield is 1m3 of completely digested POME produces 25m3 Citric acid.
Since 50 m³/day POME are produced every day, we will estimate that the citric acid production is about 1250 m³/day.
The citric acid is made up of 50-60 % C6H8O7.
![Page 27: PRODUCTION OF CITRIC ACID FROM POME](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061419/551621914979596a0d8b4604/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
citric acid production:
For 50% C6H8O7
Quantity of citric acid produce = 50 x 25m³
100 = 12.5 m³
For 60% C6H8O7
Quantity of citric acid produce = 60 x 25m³ 100 = 15.0 m³
![Page 28: PRODUCTION OF CITRIC ACID FROM POME](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061419/551621914979596a0d8b4604/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
The quantity of citric acid produce is estimated about 12.5 m3 – 15.0 m3
Production of citric acid in one day is about 625 m3 – 750 m3
So, the estimated quantities of citric acid that produce annually is about 228 125 m3 – 273 750 m3 or 228.1 L – 273.8 L.

HANDLING WASTE BY PRODUCT FROM THE BIOCONVERSION
The by product can be consist of small fraction of POME residue, fungi cells and carbon dioxide (CO2), gluconic acid, oxalic acid.
Segregate the final by product bioconversion into products that we can still utilize and products that cannot be further utilized.
Gluconic acid and oxalic acid can be used in cleaning products and detergents.
![Page 30: PRODUCTION OF CITRIC ACID FROM POME](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061419/551621914979596a0d8b4604/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
The unutilized products can be categorized as hazardous waste because it consists of oil, corrosive (pH value lower than 2.0) and contain fungi cells from the fermentation.
biohazardous waste must be biologically inactivated before disposal in order to avoid any potentially hazardous agent inside the waste prior to the bacteria cells.
![Page 31: PRODUCTION OF CITRIC ACID FROM POME](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061419/551621914979596a0d8b4604/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
The corrosive component can be neutralized using bench top treatment.
Neutralization or dilution will properly treat these wastes for safe storage.
The waste will be finally sent to hazardous waste landfill.

CONCLUSION
![Page 33: PRODUCTION OF CITRIC ACID FROM POME](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061419/551621914979596a0d8b4604/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
CONCLUSION
By converting the POME waste product into citric acid, we can reduce organic waste that can lead to pollution.
We should establish a project team to evaluate the system
and investment option to minimize the cost.
Further research should be conduct to find an alternative way to treat this agricultural residue and convert it into beneficial by products especially citric acid.
The bio hazardous waste must be biologically inactivated before disposal in order to avoid any potentially hazardous agent inside the waste prior to the bacteria cells.
By developing a treatment plant for bio-conversion of POME into citric acid, it will make our environment cleaner and safer.
