Abstract
We compared Dunaliella tertiolecta LB999 and Tetraselmis sp. KCTC12236BP harvesting efficiency using cross flow filtration (CFF) method. Filtration membranes with pore size of 0.45 μm and 0.2 μm were selected to determine the efficiency of membrane for harvesting. Cross flow filtration using Dunaliella tertiolecta LB999 with 0.45 μm membrane under transmembrane pressure 0.25 bar was the optimal condition for the laboratory system and the harvesting efficiency was 84.7%.
