Liqoflux offers the solutions for 2 main challenges in the algae industry: 
(1) Harvesting large volumes of  algae cultures
(2) Recycling of the water/media back to the production system. 

Our Capillary Algae Pre-concentration solution and Water/media Recycling solutions are showing consistently high performance results and are adding significant value in the downstream processing at our clients algae facilities.

Harvesting large volumes of algae culture:

In harvesting high volumes of algae cultures the challenge is to process the high volumes in a limited timeframe and, at the same time, optimize the algae harvesting costs. To optimize the algae harvesting costs we advise a 2-step algae harvesting solution.
Step 1 Start with the Liqoflux Capillary Algae Pre-Concentration System to separate the ‘easy’ water and pre-concentrate the algae culture with a factor 10-20
Step 2 Select the right separation technology to separate the ‘difficult’ water and produce a high dry solid algae paste.
We know the challenges in the algae downstream process and the requirements for the pre-concentration of algae cultures. The Liqoflux Algae Pre-Concentration System and Liqocap filters are specially designed and built for the algae industry.

Recycling of water/media:

For many algae producers, recycling of the effluent water, after harvesting the algae, is an absolute necessity. It's our experience that centrifuges do not harvest 100% of the algae biomass. The effluent of the centrifuge contains the 'lost' algae cells. The Liqoflux Capillary Water/media Recycling solution processes the effluent into (1) a concentrate containing all the 'lost' algae cells and (2) clean water.
The clean water, free from algae cells and bacteria is ready for recycling to your algae production system. The concentrate will be recycled back to the centrifuge for harvesting. This process harvests100% of the algae biomass!
