Bacterial and methanogenic archaeal community changes during treatment of palm oil mill effluent and biological indicators for final discharge by Mohd Nor, Diana

“…Based on the data obtained, the following biodegradation processes were suggested to take place in the different treatment stages: (1) Lactobacillaceae (35.9%) dominated the first stage that contributed to high lactic acid production; (2) higher population of Clostridiaceae in the mixing pond (47.7%) and Prevotellaceae in the holding tank (49.7%) contributed to the higher acetic acid production; (3) the aceticlastic methanogen Methanosaetaceae (0.6–0.8%) played a role in acetic acid degradation in the open digester and closed reactor for methane generation; (4) Syntrophomonas (21.5–29.2%) might be involved in fatty acids and acetic acid degradations by syntrophic cooperation with hydrogenotrophic methanogen, Methanobacteriaceae (0.6–1.3%); (5) phenols and alcohols detected in the early phases but not in the final discharge indicated the successful degradation of lignocellulosic materials. …”
