Microalgae Biomass Harvesting Using Chitosan Flocculant: Optimization of Operating Parameters by Response Surface Methodology

Microalgae Biomass Harvesting Using Chitosan Flocculant: Optimization of Operating Parameters by Response Surface Methodology

Bioflocculants can be used for cost-effective harvesting of microalgae biomass on an industrial scale. This study investigates the flocculation-based harvesting approach to recovering <i>Chlorella vulgaris</i> microalgae biomass using chitosan biopolymer. Response surface methodology (RS...
