This paper aims to study biogas production using anaerobic digestion for wastewater from a block rubber factory alone, and anaerobic co-digestion for decanter cake from a palm oilmill factory together with the wastewater from the block rubber factory and the effect of the hydraulic retention time ( HRT) . The anaerobic co- digestion was studied using acontinuously stirred tank reactor (CSTR). The experiments were conducted at a laboratoryscale. The mixing time of all CSTRs was 24 h using the inner mixing devices. From aprevious study using the biochemical methane potential test, the suitable ratio of the anaerobic co- digestion between the decanter cake from the palm oil mill factory and the wastewater from the block rubber factory was 5 g of the decanter cake and 200 mL of the wastewater. The experiments consisted of 4 CSTRs, namely R1, R2, R3, and R4. The R1contained the wastewater of the block rubber factory alone at 30 d of HRT. The R2, R3,and R4 contained the same ratio of the 5 g of decanter cake and 200 mL of wastewater with30, 20, and 10 d of HRTs, respectively. The results show that the anaerobic co- digestion provides higher biogas production than that of the anaerobic digestion using wastewater alone. The decanter cake from the palm oil mill factory can improve the biogas production potential of the wastewater from the block rubber factory using anaerobic co- digestion.The HRT of the anaerobic co- digestion shows the effect on anaerobic digestion. The 10 dof HRT can increase the organic substrates in chemical oxygen demand (COD) form. The efficiency of the COD, total solids ( TS) , and total volatile solids ( TVS) removal was the highest value in the R4 (10 d of HRT using anaerobic co-digestion). The maximum biogas.
