摘要:Sago processing industries generate a voluminous amount of wastewater with extremely high concentration of organic pollutants, resulting in water pollution. Anaerobic digestion has employed for reduction of COD and maximization of biogas production using synthetic sago wastewater by batch process. Mixed culture obtained from sago industry sludge was used as a source for microorganism. Response surface methodology was used to optimize the variables, such as pH, initial BOD, temperature and retention time. Statistical results were assessed with various descriptive, such as p value, lack of fit (F-test), coefficient of R2 determination, and adequate precision values. Pareto Analysis of Variance revealed that the coefficients of determination value (R2) of % COD removal, % BOD removal and biogas production were 0.994, 0.993 and 0.988. The optimum condition in which maximum COD removal (81.85%), BOD removal (91.61%) and biogas production of 99.4 ml/day was achieved at pH 7 with an initial BOD of 1374 mg/l, and with the retention time of 10 days at 32oC.
