eng Abstract:
In our laboratory, we employed an electrocoagulation process with iron sacrificial anode leading to the separation of Chlorella vulgaris cells with high efficiency and at the same time acceptable low contamination of separated biomass by iron. Comparing to only centrifugation, the total energy costs of harvesting using electrocoagulation as a pre-concentration step prior to centrifugation were reduced by more than 80%. After extensive study of the influence of relevant process parameters.
