Abstract
This literature review on microalgae harvesting technologies does not reveal any revolutionary conceptual advances since the first study done by Golueke and Oswald (1965). Nevertheless, optomizing various trains of processes can not only reduce costs, but can render the whole scheme economically feasible.
