A Tool for Modelling of One- or Two-Step Microalgae Harvesting Processes

Separation of microalgae from aqueous solutions still requires further optimization and knowledge. The tool for modelling of one- or two-step microalgae harvesting technology should provide a way to predict the final concentration of microalgal suspensions. The presented spreadsheet-based tool enabl...
