Selective separation of microalgae cells using inertial microfluidics [PDF]

open access: yesBioresource Technology, 2018
Microalgae represent the most promising new source of biomass for the world's growing demands. However, the biomass productivity and quality is significantly decreased by the presence of bacteria or other invading microalgae species in the cultures. We therefore report a low-cost spiral-microchannel that can effectively separate and purify Tetraselmis ...
