METHOD OF HARVESTING MICROALGAL BIOMASS USING AMINE-GRAFTED MAGNETIC NANOFLOCCULANT

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for collecting microalgae biomass existing in an aqueous solution with low concentration and, more specifically, to a method for collecting microalgae using amine-magnetic nanoparticles which aggregates the microalgae biomass using the amine based compound-grafted magnetic nanoparticles, collects the microalgae biomass and the nanoparticles which are aggregated using magnetic force, processes the microalgae biomass in a following process after separating the microalgae biomass from the nanoparticles, and reuses the nanoparticles for aggregation.
