Abstract

The rapid population growth in Malaysia has been causing various environmental problems. The main problems caused is managing the waste that is produced by this large population. Industrial effluents are one of the main contributors to the total wastewater production in Malaysia. These effluents must be treated to meet the standards set by the Department of Environment before discharged to the rivers. Untreated effluents can cause health-related risks to the population near the area of discharge. Sago mill industry is one of the large wastewaters releasing industries in Malaysia. Sarawak being the largest producer of sago, have to manage the large wastewater release while being cost effective and cleaning the environment. Therefore, microbial electrolysis cell method was used to treat the sago mill effluent while producing hydrogen that can be used as a substitute for conventional fuel source. A mathematical model was developed to simulate the hydrogen production from microbial electrolysis cell using sago mill effluent as the substrate. The mathematical model was optimized to maximize the hydrogen production from the MEC.
