Palm oil mill eliminates lagoon odour and reduces sludge without dredging — MICROBE-LIFT®/IND.
Palm oil mill — archived partner study · Sabah, Malaysia · 15 June 2024
The challenge
Severe odour from the lagoon system affected community relations. Excessive sludge accumulation was reducing lagoon capacity and increasing the risk of costly mechanical dredging.
The approach
MICROBE-LIFT®/IND biological programme targeting sludge degradation and odour control across the multi-lagoon system.
