Effects of microalgal concentration and pH with flocculant on microfiltration [PDF]

open access: yesChemical Industry and Chemical Engineering Quarterly, 2023
To make algal biomass a suitable feedstock for fuel and bioproducts, a practical way of dewatering and concentrating algal cells must be devised. In this study, a system comprising microfiltration membranes combined with a flocculant was developed on a ...

The use of natural organic flocculants for harvesting microalgae grown in municipal wastewater at different culture densities

open access: yesPhysiologia Plantarum, Volume 173, Issue 2, Page 536-542, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Harvesting microalgae from liquid culture is a difficult issue to solve and is most commonly done through settling. However, settling is a slow process on its own and generally needs to be induced chemically or by introducing stress to the culture.

Sustainable production of microalgae biomass for biofuel and chemicals through recycling of water and nutrient within the biorefinery context: A review

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 13, Issue 6, Page 914-940, June 2021., 2021
Studies on recycling of various streams for water and nutrient supply in microalgae cultivation are encouraging. However, presence and subsequent accumulation of organic and inorganic molecules produced during microalgae growth or generated during post‐processing can limit the long‐term recycling potential of these streams.

Life‐cycle assessment of the production of cationized tannins from Norway spruce bark as flocculants in wastewater treatment

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, Volume 14, Issue 6, Page 1270-1285, November/December 2020., 2020
Abstract It will be necessary to make efficient use of our resources if our society is to be converted into a bio‐based economy. Every year large side streams of bark are produced in sawmills and pulp mills. In addition to utilizing the bark for heat and electricity production, as happens today, high‐value chemical components could be extracted prior ...
