The conventional treatment method for palm oil mill effluents (POME) is predominantly anaerobic system, which involves the use of various bioreactors. Some of these bioreactors have been studied for the treatment of POME at laboratory scale, though few have been applied industrially. Such bioreactors include up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB)

The mass transfer effect on the overall reaction rate in a biocatalyst with a slab geometry containing an immobilized enzyme or cells has been investigated theoretically; Michaelis-Menten kinetics was studied. Numerical solution is used to solve the diffusion-reaction problem for Michaelis-Menten kinetics. The numerical scheme used was shooting met

The immobilization of whole cells is an important technique which provides alternative solution in the field of wastewater treatment for the purification of wastewater contaminated with various materials, such as organic compounds, inorganic compounds, metals, and so on. The immobilized cells are biocatalysts which can easily be separated from trea

The current methods adapted for the treatment of Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) in most of the palm oil mills are not very effective in treating the pollutants in the POME to the stringent standards required. Furthermore the status and concentration of oil and grease after the treatment processes is given less attention and this suggests that these

The effect of nutrient diffusion on the overall reaction rate inside porous slab biocatalyst containing an immobilized enzyme or cells has been investigated theoretically. Zero-order and first-order kinetics were studied. The problem is represented in mathematical model developed using shell mass balance on the thin slab of biocatalyst. The second

يعد الدكتور عبد الله الطيب اذوب من أشهر علماء السودان في العصر الحاضر. وقد قام حفظه الله بتاليف العديد من الكتب في مختلف االات، من أبرزها تفسيره للقرآن الكريم. ويهدف هذا البحث إلى دراسة منهج

Dua sebab utama yang berkait-rapat mencetuskan falsafah pluralisme agama ialah faham ekslusivisme Barat Kristian (Western Christian) dan pengaruh “Pencerahan” (Enlightenment) terhadap disiplin pengkajian agama (religious studies). Menggunakan pendekatan sejarah, kertas kerja ini tidak bersifat deskriptif semata-mata. Sebaliknya ia menilai denga

Malaysians need more than historical explanation to substantiate the reasons for their coexistence and understanding of each other. This paper is to share part of our research endeavor in gathering and managing data on religions in Malaysia through an academic research. Using a combination of approaches; we try to go beyond the phenomenological app

This paper examines the criteria and attributes for assessing fire risks in building. Using the Analytical Hierarchy Method (AHP) a survey questionnaire was developed based on the identified criteria and attributes of fire risks for heritage buildings in Malaysia. The survey questionnaire was administered to consultant, Fire Rescue Department (FRDM

Essential hypertension is a common multifactorial disease which affects 10% to 40% of the population, causing significant cardiovascular morbidity and mortality (P.Trenk et al., 1999). It is believed that hypertension occurs from complex interactions between multiple environmental and genetic factors. Between 30 and 60% of blood pressure variations
