The rise in energy consumption would quadruple in the coming century and the, existing
energy resources might be insufficient to meet the demand of the growing population. An …

The feasibility of microalgal biomass as one of the most promising and renewable sources
for the production of biofuels is being studied extensively. Microalgal biomass can be …

In this review article, waste materials (biogenic/non-biogenic) are focused as the flocculants
for harvesting of algal biomass. Chemical flocculants are widely utilized for the effective …

The present study proposes a sustainable circular bioeconomy approach for municipal
wastewater (MWW) treatment, employing a sub-pilot two-stage sequential microalgal co …

Bioflocculants can be used for cost-effective harvesting of microalgae biomass on an
industrial scale. This study investigates the flocculation-based harvesting approach to …

Cationic polyacrylamide (CPAM) is a commonly used flocculant for water treatment. Factors
that affect the flocculation effect and can be controlled manually include the type and dosage …

Downstream costs represent one of the main obstacles to enabling microalgae to become
widespread. The development of an economical, easily scaled-up strategy could reduce the …

One of the primary challenges faced by small rubbing filament machines is the significant
variability in material sizes, particularly in the feeding direction. This variability complicates …

With the development of oilfields, the liquid volume of oily wastewater gets larger. Thus,
more efficient flotation agents must be developed. In this regard, cationic polyacrylates with …

The quartz sand-enhanced coagulation (QSEC) is an improved coagulation method for
treating water, which uses quartz sand as a heavy medium to accelerate the sedimentation …
