Microalgae, Fermentation & Bioprocesses

The success of microalgae cultivation and fermentation-based production depends on separating viable cells from the biomass with maximum efficiency while preserving cell integrity. These processes typically begin with low solids concentrations and require gradual concentration. Polat Makina’s advanced centrifuge technologies combine the gentle separation capabilities of separator centrifuges for recovering viable cells, such as yeast and bacteria, from fermentation broths with the high-efficiency dewatering capacity of decanter centrifuges at higher solids concentrations.

Polat Makina’s integrated approach provides a critical mechanism for optimizing overall plant efficiency by converting low-concentration feed streams into high-value biomass. While separators perform precise cell harvesting, decanters handle by-product separation and final-stage dewatering, establishing a continuous and stable processing line. This strategic combination of equipment helps ensure operational continuity, product purity, and final product quality in bioindustrial facilities, directly contributing to more profitable and sustainable processes at commercial scale.
