Overcoming Microalgae Harvesting Barrier by Activated Algae Granules

Abstract The economic factor of the microalgae harvesting step acts as a barrier to scaling up microalgae-based technology designed for wastewater treatment. In view of that, this study presents an alternative microalgae-bacteria system, which is proposed for eliminating the economic obstacle. Inste...
