Background The microalgal-based industries are facing a number of important challenges
that in turn affect their economic viability. Arguably the most important of these are
associated with the high costs of harvesting and dewatering of the microalgal cells, the costs
and sustainability of nutrient supplies and costly methods for large scale oil extraction.
Existing harvesting technologies, which can account for up to 50% of the total cost, are not
economically feasible because of either requiring too much energy or the addition of
that in turn affect their economic viability. Arguably the most important of these are
