This project focuses on developing a sustainable technology for harvesting microalgae, utilizing bio-based flocculants and advanced flotation processes. The goal is to improve biomass recovery while minimizing environmental impact and costs, addressing challenges like contamination and high water content in the harvest…
The European market demand for biomass for feed, food, and fuel production is expected to increase to greater than €25 billion by 2050.
Microalgae are an attractive and novel biomass feedstock that requires negligible arable land and resources.
Yet, the small size of microalgae cells (1-10 µm) and low biomass concentration in the liquid culture medium (~1 g/L) complicate the harvesting of microalgal biomass using conventional technologies such as centrifugation or membrane filtration.
It is wide…
