The most frequently used method to harvest microalgae on an industrial scale is centrifugation, although this has very high energy costs. To reduce these costs, a continuous electrocoagulation process for harvesting Chlorella vulgaris was developed and tested using a pilot-scale 111 L working volume device consisting of an electrolyser with iron electrodes, aggregation channel and lamellar settler. The flow rate of the microalgal suspension through the device was 240 L/h. When using controlled cultivation and subsequent electrocoagulation, a high harvesting efficiency (above 85%), a low Fe contamination in the harvested biomass (<4 mg Fe/g dry biomass, a harvested biomass complied with legislative requirements for food) and significant energy savings were ach ieved. When comparing electrocoagulation and subsequent centrifugation with the use of centrifugation alone, energy savings were 80 % for a biomass harvesting concentration of 0.23 g/L. Electrocoagulation was thus proven to be a feasible pre-concentration method for harvesting microalgae.
