Low Temperature Hydrothermal Pre-Treatment of Algae to Reduce Nitrogen Heteroatoms and Generate Nutrient Recycle Streams
Scientists from USA conducted an experiment to reduce nitrogen heteroatoms and generate nutrient recycle streams in algae. A two-stage hydrothermal liquefaction process was used for this purpose. A low temperature liquefaction treatment hydrolysed proteins and separated nitrogen to the aqueous phase which was later removed for analysing nutrient and toxic concentrations. Results showed that the […]
