Efficient Algae Harvesting Techniques and Oil Extraction
Sedimentation relies on gravity to separate algae cells from water by allowing them to settle at the bottom of a container or pond. This method is generally low-cost and simple to implement but may require long settling times and large surface areas for effective separation. Efficient Algae Oil Extraction Methods 1. Mechanical Pressing
Algae harvesting with the Flottweg Separator. The algae suspension flows from the photobioreactor directly into the Flottweg Separator. Then the distributor gently accelerates the suspension to full speed. Due to the high centrifugal force of up to 12,000 g, the separator dewaters the algae suspension producing an algae concentrate with creamy
Investigation on algae oil extraction from algae Spirogyra by
They used different solvent types for extracting oil from the algae. By using n-hexane, the oil yield was found to be around 4.12%wt for 20 g of algae in a 250 ml Soxhlet apparatus for an extraction time of 12 h. Ibrahim et al. [14] used different solvents for extracting oil from the ground kernel of sandbox seeds. For n-hexane as solvent, the
The total investment for such a design based on 25% oil yield and 20 gm m −2 day −1 areal productivity was estimated to be $39 million. On a per gallon TAG basis, the cost of cultivating algae and biocrude production was estimated to be $16.78 gallon −1. 2.6.
Recent progress in extraction/transesterification techniques
According to the work of Xu et al., 95% of oil from 1 kg C. vulgaris could be extracted employing with 0.24 MJ of electricity consumption and heat consumption of 0.76 MJ in the dry route compared to 0.5 MJ power is required for the cell disruption of 1 kg algae slurry for oil extraction in the wet phase .
4.2.4 Enzyme-assisted extraction. In order to extract biologically active compounds from the biomass of algae, in some cases, application of a well-defined mixture of enzyme is necessary for extraction, since algal cell wall is chemically and structurally more heterogeneous than in other cells (e.g. plant) [42].
Extraction methods of algae oils for the production of third
The cost of this lipid recovery process can be up to three times higher than that of the extraction of other types of oils because of energy consumption and the use of chemical compounds. This extraction process differs from those applied for the processing of other biomass structures because of the presence of a rigid cell wall and the variety
The main benefits of using an ultrasonic extraction process are the ability to increase the yield of algae crude oil and reduce the time of the extraction process with moderate cost . Another benefit is the fact that the biomass does not require drying before extraction, if the hexane-centrifugation method is used but using centrifugation for
Upgrading of Algal Oil for the Production of High-Grade
2. Production of Biofuel from Direct Conversion of Algae 2.1. Algal Oil from Lipid Extraction and Transformation to Biodiesel Algal lipids are regarded as a renewable source for the production of the third-generation biofuel [55]. The methods of lipid extraction from algae have been studied for decades, which are
In-line and fully scalable to high production volumes, the Diversified Technologies' PEF Pre-Treatment of Algae for Oil Extraction Process consists of a chamber where the algal slurry is pumped into and treated along with a rack housing a power supply and pulse modulator.
