The ALGAEMAX project focuses on developing an innovative ultrasound flow cell technology to concentrate microalgae, aiming to replace energy-intensive centrifuge processes. This advancement seeks to enhance the economic viability of microalgae for biodiesel production and other applications in food and pharmaceuticals.
The worldwide production of microalgae is currently around 5,000 tons per year of dry algal biomass, and is used for livestock feed, fish meal, and high value extracts for dietary supplements, functional foods, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.
Microalgae contain around 30% by weight of lipids/oil, and are regarded as a highly promising feedstock for biofuels, primarily biodiesel.Microalgae are commercially grown in open ponds or bioreactors, and then harvested using a centrifuge separator.
