Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME)

Palm oil mills generate a huge amount of wastewater during the oil extraction process. This wastewater is called Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME).

This effluent have:

High moisture content leads to bulky sludge and increased disposal cost.

Slow drying rates and high energy consumption in conventional systems.

Difficulty in achieving uniform drying for high-organic sludge.

Risk of odor, microbial growth, and leachate during storage & transport.

SED's MVR-based LTE® technology significantly reduces waste volumes, enabling a cost-effective and sustainable Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) solution.

SED Smart Solution

SED offers an integrated solution combining an advanced MVR based Low Temperature Evaporator (LTE®) with a downstream dryer to effectively treat complex, thick & highly organic palm oil effluent, ensures compliance with local regulations and all applicable environmental discharge norms.

Advantages of MVR based ZLD

Significant reduction in sludge volume.

Ensures dry reject output with moisture content below 10%.

Lower disposal and transportation cost.

Uniform and efficient drying performance.

Reduced odor and microbial activity.

Improved handling and storage stability.

Better environmental compliance and sustainability.
